HAS ANYONE SEEN ANY PROOF THAT THIS IS REAL?

So far, all I see is a regurgitated blog reference to a TMZ.COM UNSOURCED claim that a strongly worded letter has been sent by, “the band.”

“The band” doesn’t send letters. Lawyers do. And lawyers would know this is futile.

If Geddy or Alex or Neil are quoted somewhere, I haven’t seen it yet. (They certainly might have, but they generally don’t seem to be the types to get into these stupid things.)

You bring up a good point. Didn’t notice where the comments came from. Probably I believed it because it’s unbelievable :) - like the whole thing that start this fluke’n mess!

And lawyers would know this is futile.

Lawyers do futile things every day, if their clients are willing to pay. It's called "bluffing."

Cannot verify the accuracy of this but:

I hope you are right. They have always seemed to be above the fray.
