So I have come across the information that I guess that there are three
bands called "One World". One based in Key West, Florida, another in
Houston, Texas, and one in Santa Cruz or San Jose, California. Wonder if
they know about each other ?!

Re: the half dozen or so One World band names.

I'm no lawyer, but I do alot of trademark searching in my job. As
I understand the situation: You don't trademark the name of the
group per se. What you're trademarking is a good or service that
you're providing. In this case One World would get a trademark in
the category of providing musical entertainment; or if they market
any parephanalia, they would get a trademark in the clothing
category. Etc.

That's why you see little circles around the r by the Rolling
Stones and even Billy Joel. I kid you not, if you ever see the name
Billy Joel, he'll have a trademark symbol by his name. He
transcends himself as an individual and becomes a product. Only in
America :-)

Remember the booshwah over the two Uprising Bands last year? The
one in Maryland had a federal trademark for the name Uprising in
the class of "entertainment services; namely, live musical
performances by a reggae band"--quoting straight from the trademark
citation. In this case the service mark is owned by Unconquered
Lions Inc. (The name of their album BTW).

So Unconquered Lions Inc. put out a cease and desist order against
the California band for infringing on the legally protected
trademark: Uprising. All the California band did was flip flop
themselves: They took the name of their album release "Rasta Fire"
and then labeled their album as Uprising. So they didn't have to
recall any existing copies of the album now. Pretty clever IMO.

Now they're kosher/halal. Because you can't trademark the name of
an album or movie title or anything like that. Only the entity
providing a good or service. The only way they would be in trouble
now is if a group called Rasta Fire had a federal trademark.

>if nobody has it trademarked, the bwoy it's about time one a dem
>do it nuh? i would think that somebody should do something to

>eliminate tings like dis,

Now to really confuse things. You can get an understood trademark
or TM. And if you can prove that you are using it sucessfully in
commerce you can protest any other group from being granted the
Federal trademark. So if One World in Florida can prove (by virtue
of record releases or concert dates) that they are using the name
successfully in commerce the One World group in Georgia (let's say)
who were applying for a Federal trademark probably would be denied.

And to make things even more confusing, there are state trademarks.
And if I wanted to trademark One World to create a music magazine,
let's say, neither music group could say squat. Because I would be
registering my trademark in a different class of goods or service.
Because you can't claim blanket exclusivity to a trade name. Yet
the US Olympic committee is trying to claim exclusive rights to the
name Olympic; taking Greek restaurants to court etc.

Now that we're all confused (or bored) I'll let it drop. But the
ones who benefit the most are the lawyers in all dis :-)

But really, if one is registered nationally the rest are out of luck.
But there have been a number of international disputes from this

The Internet is LOADED wid military operatives and
agents of disinformation; for the internet was their
creation, and they still have a firm grasp in its
direction and monitoring ability.

You can refer to me as you wish (for everyone seems to),
but to call I+I some kind of Powell clone is a sad
state of affairs altogether.

As far as the subject matter is concerned:

If all of dem 'One Worlds' started to release material,
it would be terribly confusing for all and in the end it
would no doubt result in some kind of legal hassle. Its
really best that all bands should do mega research as to
what names have already been taken, and also to be smart
and try something original / for once?

Personally I+I have no difficulties wid the One World
crew out here in the S.F. Bay Area, and do not plan
to raise any snuff about the fact that their name is
also shared by now (3?) other groups across the country.
They have been more than forthright wid I+I concerning
Earl Zero, and it is a peaceful relationship.

Out here, there were two bands who called themselves
'Uprising' and the 'Cimarons', and all non-Jamaican
they were. Sometimes when people and groups either ignore
I+I purposefully and or crap on I+I for whatever reason,
it can cause a reaction from I-man, that will certainly
make I+I want to make the scene out here less confusing
for the other bands who have the legal rights to the
names that have been grabbed by these ungrateful
local upstarts. It just depends on how much they piss
I+I off that's all. And thus both bands have now taken
new names, because of I+I. Mission accomplished.


! But really, if one is registered nationally the rest are
! out of luck. But there have been a number of international
! disputes from this throughout the history of popular music.
! Business & fun - strange bed fellows.


Watch how you use the terribly known phrase 'bed fellows'.
Some like Roger Steffens @ the BeatS will play 'stupid'
over a well known phrase that does not really connotate
the fact that anyone is sleeping wid anyone, rather that
a relationship is closer than close. After hearing Roger
Steffens AGAIN on the radio state that he has met again wid
Chris Blackwell, I+I stated that they seem to be in 'bed
with each other', in relation to their business
relationship. Roger took it wrong, and played 'stupid',
stating that in no way does Roger and Chris sleep together.
After seeing Roger Steffens greet a male companion at the
LAX airport (on the way to Sunsplash 87) in a way that would
make a frenchman blush, he most likely has been the
recipient of bi-sexual classifications, and thus the quick
rebuke from him over a phrase that is more than well known
even to him, and even used by you Nicky. I+I have learned
one thing over the many years in the scene, and that is
that those at The BeatS do play word games, and certainly
systematically play 'dumb', even to the existence of this
group.

Well acutally I noticed that the band in atlanta bills themself as
"the one world reggae band", so i guess that mek dem just a likkle
different. but reggae gets so likkle media attention in this
country how can a band in the eastern us know about another one
in the western us with de same name unless they've already put
out a cd?

>errol aka roots-ee

well actually errol, dem a call mi roots-ee too...:-)

I've been telling Jesse and the rest of OWRB about the other
bands with similar names for over a year. Guess it's not important
to them. :-) The Atlanta bunch also has had a CD out for 8 or 9
months. It's pretty much funk reggae in style but a remake of
Peter Gabriels "in your eyes" is sweet & nice.
