The letter read: “As you know, there is no person named ‘Owen Hart’ in your band.”

Change the name to Chris Benoit. Earth Control sucks.
2
Or "Vince McMahon's Fucking A Tranny From Alaska".
3
Simple solution- change the name to O N Hart
4
Agreed, Earth Control sucks as a rename. Try again.

Some suggestions: Pwned Hart; The Cease and Desist Order; Blue Blazer's Epitaph; The Lethal Head-Drops; Canadian Brainsplatter; The Stunt Failures
5
(love the article, hate to be pedant, but on the index page of the site the band is referred to as a trio)
6
The Rowan, Ah New Rot, Won Tar He, Went Haro
7
cool band! I like your songs guys! keep it up!
8
Earth Control?! Jesus, what is this, the fucking age of Aquarius?
9
Thanks five—fixed!
10
Rowen Fart.
11
Or maybe just "Twat Burger"

What are the legalities of this? I'm not entirely sure a band name is beholden to any restriction, like joining SAG or something. I don't think any reasonable human would mistake the two entities. I am sure there are hundreds of other people named Owen Hart in this world, who would be similarly forced to change their names, lest something they do reflect poorly on a grown man who made a living pretending to hurt people while wearing spandex.

Similarly, you cannot copyright a title of a work.
13
Use a lesser known Hart brother... Like Smith Hart or Ross Hart.
14
Owen Sound Heart
15
Open Heart

Please wait...
