The following Dodgers have been smited by the JDK for their crimes against Jam:
All the girls! for picking on the JDK and damaging his already delicate self esteem!
The Basserd Who Nicked Copper's Stuff For the offense of nicking Copper's stuff. You are a tw*t, whoever you are and we all hope you get run over by a tram in Nottingham. Or Liverpool. Or whereever else they have trams!
Copper For the crime of playing with her Wii instead of her Jammie pals!
Dunno about that - I think most of those names could refer to something other than the trademarked band names. Pantera was a Roman archer, an Iron Maiden was a medieval torture device, Motorheads are guys who play with their cars, even Metallica could be referring to a type of spider or a 1968 Piers Anthony novel (had to wiki that one!).
My theory falls down for Led Zeppelin, though. I shouldn't think the record labels will get to worried about it anyway... they're too busy persecuting 12 year olds for copying CDs onto their iPods.
Now I wanna know what they'd put into a Winehouse Burger...
It wouldnt be a burger - it would be fake - probably made out of paper or something.
You dont need to have singular meaning of a word. Its not down to the record label - they dont own the band name - All of those band names are registered trade marks and as such if the bandfeels the guy is profiting off the trade mark (even by association) they can prevent him from using it and re-coup any income they get back off the ruling.
KISS are pretty famous for keeping tight control over the name and logo as are Metallica (which is the riskiest one on that list in my view)
