I haven't heard Mary Jane's Last Dance in so long it's hard for me to hear similarities.

I'll never know how similar they are, because otherwise I'd have to listen to an RHCP song. At least someone is finally suing this criminally awful band.

We should file a class-action against them for making such shitty, shitty music for so many years.

Dude, I know it's hard but let go of the sock. You'll feel much better.

And The Jayhawks should sue Tom Petty for "Last Dance..." as he pretty much ripped off that entire guitar part from "Waiting For the Sun".

It could be a three-way free-for-all

ARE YOU READY TO RUUUUMMMMBLE?!?!?!

That article doesn't say anything. Read it closely. Petty isn't doing anything.
