In the declaration filed Wednesday in a Nashville chancery court, Hall also lamented the deterioration of his relationship with and trust in his musical partner of more than a half-century. The joint venture in question includes Hall & Oates trademarks, personal name and likeness rights, record royalty income and website and social media assets, the declaration states.

In his own court filing later Wednesday, Oates said that he was disappointed in Hall’s “inflammatory, outlandish, and inaccurate statements about me,” and argued that he had been trying for some time to enhance their business partnership.

A few months ago I saw Kyle Petty interview John Oats. John Oats has a son with his second wife, is a huge car enthusiast and had a somewhat successful amateur racing hobby. His car collection is incredible. He didn’t seem any less normal than Kyle Petty is.

I read that Sam and Dave only spoke to one another on stage or in the studio. Otherwise, they hated each other.

Pretty sad.

Off topic, their hit Hold on I’m coming (Trumps’s speech ending theme song) was thought of when one was in the bathroom. The other yelled at him to get a move on and he yelled back “Hold on, I’m coming.”
