Steely Dan vs. Owen Wilson




Steely Dan (my favorite band) has taken action against Owen Wilson and the movie "Me and Dupree" which if you have the album "Two Against Nature" you'll recognize was lifted from the song "Cousin Dupree". The song, Cousin Dupree's is about a loser who moves back in with his Aunt , and the movie's about a loser who moves in with his married newlywed buddies, and shennanegans ensue on both fronts...

Ironically Steely Dan is named after a dildo in William Burrough's beat/sci fi novel "The Naked Lunch" and "Me and Dupree" I've heard just sucks dick.

Anyway I've got your back Don and Walt; and please show H'wood what a real Royal Scam really is.

That's awesome! I have no idea whose fault that all was...but hey, anytime somebody can rat H'wood execs out for being the bunch of ripoff artists they tend to be is cool with me.
