Default G4 Name Row Erupts

From AOL news:

'G4 could be sued by a heavy metal band who reckon they have stolen their name.

Geared4 say the wholesome foursome's popularity since appearing on ITV talent show The X Factor is ruining their own wild-living image.

The group say they are widely known as G4 by their fans, according to The Sun.

Lead singer Glenn Abel said: "The other G4 think we are just a small band and they can walk all over us but they can't. We will fight this to the end.

"We have been made a complete laughing stock. Our tough image has been destroyed and is beginning to affect our music.

"G4 is part of our product name and is used on our Web site, merchandise, promotion and correspondence.

"We just want them to accept that we have the name first. They should stop using it."

Geared4 claim that rival bands have started dubbing them "The Choirboys" because of G4's classical repertoire and squeaky-clean image.'


haha, oh well.

It would be great if 'G4' was short for 'Guildford 4'.

It nearly is. 'Guildhall 4', in fact, because they all went to Guildhall School of Music.
