How did the gig go Bob ?
Any vids up ?
Did the sax guy play with you ?
I actually think fisherman bob has a cool ring to it ... it kind of sticks in my head

Anyone ever trademark a band name before ?
Tips ? Advice ?
Been on a few sites .... fees are from $75 to $ 500 ...
The Grateful Dead's old photographer tried to use my bands name for his band earlier this year.... it was a real pissing match and a bummer ... he backed off though ...
Any body have any advice .... we are starting to play a bit I wanna get it wrapped up.

I'm interested in this subject - the Beatles tribute band I'm playing with is called 'Instant Karma', and there have been 2 other tribute bands of the same name (both defunct now).

Trade -Marking is a bitch... I just looked into that a while back for another DBA alias name that I have... To trademark, you have to prove to the Gov and whomever...that the name, in conjunction with its Goods and services offered, is distinct and unique. We are talking millions of TMs filed out there, with the same nomenclature as you and I have... ... Most Attys have the resources to find that out, and prepare a TM package for you . Make sure yo got all the answers that the Atty needs to know, for the forms that get filled out...
