[edit] Atari teenage riot
What relationship (if any) does this band have to Atari Teenage Riot? Did they inspire the name? Mr. Jones 09:27, 17 Sep 2004 (UTC)
- Been wondering the same myself. I left a similar question on the Atari Teenage Riot Wikipedia article. Also I deleted your links here cause they no longer worked. VarunRajendran
- Nope, the bands have no relationship whatsoever, although the Ataris' song Teenage Riot references the confusion between the two bands. JaymzSpyhunter 04:56, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Relationship with Atari
Does anyone know the band's relationship with the Atari game company? They are fairly high-profile for their genre, so it seems unlikely to me that the company is oblivious to their existence. So what's going on? Did the band get permission to use the name and logo? Were those mysteriously left uncopyrighted? Is there a low-profile lawsuit happening? I've always wondered about this, and hopefully we Wikipedians can find something out on the issue. --BDD 18:27, 21 May 2005 (UTC)
- There was a lawsuit in the early 00's and it was found that they weren't infringing on any trademarks. The Ataris do not use any logos from Atari. JaymzSpyhunter 04:56, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Group photo
Can someone please upload a new photo of the group here and put it in the correct spot? You can find it at the Ataris' website. JaymzSpyhunter 04:56, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
