Suing Mad

The Smashing Pumpkins are suing Virgin Records for selling them out to the corporate whores without their permission.
A lawsuit filed on behalf of the band states, “(they) worked hard for over two decades to accumulate a considerable amount of goodwill in the eyes of the public,” and that Virgin’s use of the band in a ‘Pepsi Stuff’ promotion with Amazon.com and Pepsi Co. threatens their reputation for “artistic integrity.”
The lawsuit demands that Virgin pay with the profits earned in the promotion and asks for an injunction against using the Pumpkins’ name or music in the future.
Does anyone even care about the Smashing Pumpkins anymore???
