chinese democracy title robbed

[gunner333]

ok "always rock and rolling" was a bad example.i just randomly thought of that.but i found a good one.this one isnt that bad. its "rebirth" that makes sence cuz the whole band is new. except fro some.so there made again.with new members.

you can't coopyright/trademark an album title (or song title for that matter). the offspring could've called their album chinese democracy had they really wanted to and axl couldn't have done shit about it.

there are a few bands with albums called Chinese Democracy. who cares? it's not like axl came up with the title himself. i know a book by that name has been out since 1986. not saying that's where he got it, but it's probable.

Didn't G'nR give The Offspring a cease and desist when they were call splinter Chi Dem?

They did but it didn't really matter.  They had no legal ground to stop them.

the album should be called 'the returning moodswings of billy bailey'
