American punk rockers Green Day have today woken up to quite a large headache, As have there label and management team. It seems an image used by the band, on-line and off-line is not the legal property of the band at all, and instead has been effectivly stolen by the management team of Green Day.
The story was brought to light by on-line 'celeb' zine TMZ who reported that the artist Dereck Seltzer is sueing Green Day for an un-disclosed amount over the 'iligal and un-authorised' use of his image.
Green Day's lawyer, Don Passman, thas released the following statement on the issue,
"Green Day received Mr. Seltzer's image from a responsible company and was unaware that there could be any copyright or other issues."
