Here we go again...Iron Maiden sued over the rights of 6 songs

Banned members don't get to come back whenever they want.

Coincidentally matching names, perhaps?

In Spanish the letter V is the same as B but, allegedly, "softer".

Nowadays V and B are pronounced exactly the same (at least in Spain).

 

[karljant]

Actually, that would be "vaza".

In Brazilian Portuguese minha irmã ... por aqui é "Baza" com "B" mesmo

In Spanish the letter V is the same as B but, allegedly, "softer". I don't know about Portuguese though.

Grammatically speaking they don't but actually in the north of Portugal that happens. But that's simply the region's accent. Especially older people there switch V's for B's on countless words. Hey perhaps the "Baza" variant from the Brazilian version thing is due to that since Vaza (in English means to leak out, to drain) makes a whole more sense.

Então, eu sou do Brasil, e nunca ouvi ninguém dizer "baza".

 

[karljant]

Pois, Vaza é no Brasil... Eu sou de Portugal

 

[Jer]

The Canadian guy running this place like it's North Korea must be to blame.

LOL, I finally saw the Blabbermouth comment that made me understand this joke...

Ah. Desculpa, entendi que você era daqui. Erro meu.

Nope. Definitely saw who this was, yet again.

 

[Diesel 11]

Wait, what happened now?

 

[Magnus]

Nope. Definitely saw who this was, yet again.

I meant the Bayley last name, it must have been a coincidence?

I'm a month late on this, but it's utterly remarkable how many people think of Lars as a dickhead when he's been a bit of a trail blazer when it comes to defending musicians.

Yup... hey! He's like most people: can be a dick at some aspects (and surely is) and a cool guy on others (also true).

 

[Welsh Phantom]

Am I in the wrong thread? Pages of spam. Oh well.

Hopefully there will be something about the law suit soon.

 

[MW564]

Has there been any new info on this? Are they still attempting to sue Maiden or has it all fizzled out?

I have not heard anything which seems pretty strange so I'm intigued also

There goes the Ion Maiden loot...

I must be missing something..

I must be missing something..

Not really, no.

IRON MAIDEN Files $2 Million Trademark Lawsuit Over 'Ion Maiden' Video Game

Kind of torn on this a bit. They should protect their interests but....given that they've had their own legal issues recently, maybe they should think about letting this go? Am seeing this brought up a couple times already.
Now if the game had a female, undead corpse running around named "Edie".....then they should go all in.
Come to think of it, has Eddie ever had a girlfriend? (Women in Uniform cover doesn't count)
