They had a business relationship in 2011, they can't just use the phrase now and claim it is generic.

- idopmstuff 4y agoIt seems very plausible to me that calling a line of cereal "OK Go!" that's designed to be eaten on the go and has no other references to the band would not be confusing to the vast majority of people because they had a business relationship >10 years ago. But the upside about this lawsuit is it will tell us very clearly if you're correct or not.
- SOLAR_FIELDS 4y agoIt’s also worth mentioning that while OK Go while makes catchy tunes, they aren’t your typical starving artist stick it to the man band being victimized by BigCorp. They’ve always been quite in line with marketing, advertising and working with corporations. This Chevrolet ad/OK Go music video is from a decade ago: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=MejbOFk7H6c https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=MejbOFk7H6c Note: I don’t dislike OK Go at all, don’t get me wrong, I think they make some of the most creative music videos I have ever seen.
