RIP Kelly Jay Fordham of Canadian band Crowbar


Recommended Posts

This confused me for a minute since there's an American metal band named Crowbar too.

 

RIP

 

This is the problem with two band's having the same name.

 

Some other examples, which the third one is a strange scenario.

 

FM and FM

Nirvana and Nirvana

The Zombies and The Zombies

 

I thought bands had to copyright their names. I guess American Crowbar came along after the Canadian one had ended and that's how they got the name.

Others include the Beat [uS] and the (English) Beat [britain], the Angels [uS] and the Angels (renamed Angel City) [Australia].
