It was this day in Rock History in 2000, this band sues Neiman-Marcus and a bunch of others alleging that they have diluted the rock band’s trademarked name. Who was the band and why did they sue?
Answer:
It was Metallica! They sued alleging that Neiman-Marcus and other department store chains had infringed on and diluted the rock band’s trademarked name by creating and marketing a “Metallica” perfume brand. I wonder what Metallica would smell like?
