Opposer believes he will be damaged by the registration of the above identified mark filed by The Trustees of the Zappa Family Trust Administrative Trust (“Applicant”), comprised of Ahmet Zappa, an individual, and Diva Zappa and individual (together, “Trustees”), with an address of 3940 Laurel Canyon Blvd., Suite 859, Studio City, CA 91604, and hereby opposes such registration. As grounds for the opposition, it is alleged that: 1. ZAPPA is the legal surname of Opposer and Trustees, all of whom are siblings. 2. ZAPPA is also the legal surname of Opposer’s and Trustees’ father, Frank Zappa, a famous American musician, songwriter, composer, guitarist, record producer, actor and filmmaker who passed away on December 4, 1993. 1 19046-19046-00001\MCS\MCS\2927705.1 3. Because ZAPPA is the legal surname of Opposer, Trustees, and Frank Zappa, it identifies each of them and not only Frank Zappa. 4. Opposer has acquired certain legal rights in and to the name ZAPPA insofar as it identifies him and is his legal surname. 5. Opposer has also acquired certain trademark rights in and to ZAPPA due to his multi- decade use of ZAPPA in commerce in connection with live musical performances, recorded music, acting, composing, music instruction, and public speaking. 6. In 1982, Opposer used DWEEZIL ZAPPA in connection with a live musical performance. 7. In the 1990’s, Opposer used DWEEZIL ZAPPA in connection with international live musical performances, including a North American tour from 1993-1998. 8. Since 2006, Opposer has continuously used ZAPPA as part of his name to identify himself in connection with live musical performances. 9. Since 2006, Opposer has continuously used DWEEZIL ZAPPA in connection with live musical performances. 10. One of the trademarks used by Opposer that included the ZAPPA name was ZAPPA PLAYS ZAPPA in connection with live musical performances. These live musical performances featured the music of his father, Frank Zappa. 11. The first reference to “Zappa” in this mark is understood by the public to refer to Opposer. 12. For the above reasons, the name ZAPPA has come to be associated with Opposer in the minds of relevant consumers in connection with live musical performances, recorded music, and public appearances. 2 19046-19046-00001\MCS\MCS\2927705.1 13. For all the above reasons, Opposer has acquired common law trademark rights in and to ZAPPA in connection with live musical performances and related uses. 14. During the past two years, Opposer and Trustees have been involved in a contentious “family feud” over a number of business and legal issues related to Frank Zappa’s estate. 15. Among these issues is Opposer’s past use and legal rights in and to ZAPPA in connection with live musical performances, recorded music, and related uses. 16. On February 24, 2016, Applicant filed an application for ZAPPA, Serial No. 86918908 (the “Application”) in the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“PTO”) based upon an intent to use ZAPPA in commerce under Section 1(b). 17. Applicant filed for the Application in International Class 041 in connection with “Entertainment services namely, live music performances, theatrical performances, and conducting karaoke contests and competitions; entertainment services namely, live visual and audio performances by artists; personal appearances by musical performers, theatrical performers, and celebrities; entertainment, namely, live music concerts; entertainment, namely, live performances by a musical band or group or individual; entertainment namely, production of music and music video recordings and entertainment related films; entertainment services, namely, providing non-downloadable playback of music via global communications networks; providing a web site featuring information in the field of entertainment; publishing of magazines and newsletters; providing online magazines and newsletters in the fields of music, and celebrities and providing entertainment information in the nature of a calendar of entertainment events; providing a web site where users can post ratings, reviews and recommendations on events and activities in the field of entertainment; entertainment, namely, conducting private parties; conception, creation, production, arranging, planning and conducting special events for social entertainment purposes; conception, creation, production, arranging, 3 19046-19046-00001\MCS\MCS\2927705.1 planning and conducting nightclub entertainment events; entertainment services, namely, discothèques, cabarets; entertainment services, namely, live presentation of music performances and prerecorded music performances viewed on a big screen; entertainment services, namely, presentation of entertainment exhibitions and concerts; entertainment services, namely, planning and conducting music festivals; organizing music festivals for entertainment purposes; production of music; production of sound and music video recordings; providing an internet website portal featuring links to musical artist websites and music performance ticket information; music-halls; music venues; music publishing services.” 18. In the Application, Applicant claims ZAPPA in Class 009 for “Phonograph Records, Pre- Recorded Tapes and Tape Cassettes” (Reg. No. 1179890), along with several other ZAPPA registrations, as prior registrations. 19. However, many of the entertainment services listed in the Application are not covered by any prior ZAPPA registration and have never been offered or provided in commerce by Applicant or by Frank Zappa. 20. Frank Zappa last provided live musical performances in 1988. 21. Applicant has no prior rights in ZAPPA in connection with some or all of the services listed in the Application. 22. Applicant did not have the requisite bona fide intent to use ZAPPA in connection with “live music performances,” “live visual and audio performances by artists,” “live music concerts,” “live performances by a musical band or group or individual” or “live presentation of music performances” as of the application filing date because Frank Zappa died in 1993, he cannot provide any of these “live” services, and no one with the Zappa name other than Opposer will provide these services. 4 19046-19046-00001\MCS\MCS\2927705.1 23. Upon information and belief, Applicant’s intention in filing the Application was only to block Opposer from legitimately and legally using ZAPPA in connection with the above specified services, and to improperly use any resulting registration against Applicant in the ongoing family feud between Applicant and Opposer. 24. If the Application should register, Applicant would gain prima facie exclusivity to use ZAPPA in connection with the listed services which are adverse to Opposer’s prior rights in and to ZAPPA as specified herein. 25. For at least the reasons set forth in Paragraphs 4 –12 above, Opposer asserts that he has priority of use over Applicant in and to ZAPPA in connection with “live music performances,” “live visual and audio performances by artists,” “live music concerts,” “live performances by a musical band or group or individual” or “live presentation of music performances.” 26. Applicant’s mark, ZAPPA in connection with entertainment services namely, live music performances, so resembles ZAPPA as previously used in the United States by Opposer in connection with live musical performances, as to be likely to cause confusion, or to cause mistake or to deceive. 27. In addition, Applicant has repeatedly alleged that ZAPPA as applied for in the Application so resembles Opposer’s DWEEZIL ZAPPA mark as to be likely to cause confusion. 28. On January 28, 2016, Applicant, through its attorney, sent a cease and desist letter to Opposer in which it stated, “The legal situation therefore is that in order for Dweezil or any other Family member to use the name "Zappa Plays Zappa" or ZPZ or the name, image and likeness of Frank, and to play Frank's music under that name or any other name, the consent of the Trust is needed” (emphasis added). 29. On June 14, 2016, Applicant, through its attorney, sent a cease and desist letter to Opposer in which it stated, “As Dweezil is well aware, [Applicant] has gone to great lengths to develop goodwill and consumer recognition in the ZAPPA mark and formatives thereof (hereinafter 5 19046-19046-00001\MCS\MCS\2927705.1

  • PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 and 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak a Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate
    PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 AND 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2007 Committee: Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Dr. John Makay Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Ron E. Shields Dr. Don McQuarie © 2007 Bradley C. Klypchak All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Between 1984 and 1991, heavy metal became one of the most publicly popular and commercially successful rock music subgenres. The focus of this dissertation is to explore the following research questions: How did the subculture of heavy metal music between 1984 and 1991 evolve and what meanings can be derived from this ongoing process? How did the contextual circumstances surrounding heavy metal music during this period impact the performative choices exhibited by artists, and from a position of retrospection, what lasting significance does this particular era of heavy metal merit today? A textual analysis of metal- related materials fostered the development of themes relating to the selective choices made and performances enacted by metal artists. These themes were then considered in terms of gender, sexuality, race, and age constructions as well as the ongoing negotiations of the metal artist within multiple performative realms. Occurring at the juncture of art and commerce, heavy metal music is a purposeful construction. Metal musicians made performative choices for serving particular aims, be it fame, wealth, or art. These same individuals worked within a greater system of influence. Metal bands were the contracted employees of record labels whose own corporate aims needed to be recognized.

  • An Autocratic Approach to Music Copyright?: the Means Through Which Frank Zappa Translated and Adapted Both His Own and Other Composers’ Music
    Performa ’09 – Conference on Performance Studies University of Aveiro, May 2009 An Autocratic Approach to Music Copyright?: The means through which Frank Zappa translated and adapted both his own and other composers’ music Paul Carr, University of Glamorgan [email protected] Aims In preparation for an examination of how and why such a diverse range of tribute bands and ensembles are so intent on continuing to experiment with Zappa’s music despite the threat of legal challenges, and an investigation into the various philosophical, legal and industrial factors behind why the ZFT are so intent on selectively prohibiting performances of his music, this paper will discuss the ironic means through which Zappa expressed himself consistently through both recorded and live performance during his 27 years in the public eye. Context Since the death of Frank Zappa in 1993, there has been an ongoing legal battle between the Zappa Family Trust (ZFT) and the so called ‘tribute bands’ that are determined to continue translating his music through live and recorded mediums. It could be argued that these ensembles effectively not only pay direct homage to Zappa’s legacy by interpreting his music in numerous innovative ways, but also keep his memory alive by interfacing with both his long standing audience, and with a younger generation who may not be aware of his music. The most famous of the rock-based ensembles is entitled Zappa Plays Zappa and has the unusual credit of being ‘legally’ sanctified to perform his music live. This legality is no coincidence, as the band is headed by Zappa's eldest son Dweezil and features the 'Vault Master' responsible for compiling the legal recordings heralding from the ZFT - Joe Travers on drums.

    The Daily Caller » The Big List of Who Hates Guns » Print http://dailycaller.com/2012/03/01/the-big-list-of-who-hates-guns/?print=1 - The Daily Caller - http://dailycaller.com - The Big List of Who Hates Guns Posted By Mike Piccione On 2:25 PM 03/01/2012 @ 2:25 PM In Featured,Gun Laws & Legislation,Guns and Gear | 6 Comments I was cruising the web reading gun articles and then I started wondering about writing an article on anti-gun organizations and people. Since anti-gunners are always saying “no one wants to take your guns away” or they want me to live under their take of “sensible gun laws” (neither of which I believe to be prudent, sensible or anything remotely truthful) I figured I would go to the NRA’s Institute of Legislative Action to find out who are the people that want to be sure that I can’t defend my home or go shooting my .22 in the woods (both heinous acts of human behavior to be sure). So, hats off the the NRA-ILA team for compiling this list. Here is what the NRA-ILA team had to say. The following organizations have lent monetary, grassroots or some other type of direct support to anti-gun organizations. In many instances, these organizations lent their name in support of specific campaigns to pass anti-gun legislation such as the March 1995 HCI “Campaign to Protect Sane Gun Laws.” Many of these organizations were listed as “Campaign Partners,” for having pledged to fight any efforts to repeal the Brady Act and the Clinton “assault weapons” ban.

  • Official Biography
    Neil Zaza 212OFFICIAL BIOGRAPHY Not only has guitarist Neil Zaza helped to define the genre of melodic instrumental guitar, he has become a worldwide ambassador for the instrument itself. His melodic compositions have changed the way musicians play, and what audiences worldwide demand out of their guitar heroes. With fiery technical brilliance and breathtaking musical interpretation, Neil Zaza has defined himself as the instrumental guitarist with an unparalleled ability to combine solid, catchy songwriting with a keen melodic sense and technical fury. From his virtuoso rock solos, to laying a funk groove, to demonstrating his classical prowess by performing Bach and Mozart compositions, Zaza’s extreme versatility has been showcased worldwide in concerts, clinics, festivals, as well as on his own solo instrumental albums. Zaza has shared the bill with Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, Dweezil Zappa, Steve & Mike Porcaro (Toto), Yngwie Malmsteen, Vinnie Moore, and Andy Summers. He has performed on albums by Dweezil Zappa, Eric Carmen, Michael Stanley and also supplied guitar tracks for a Stewart Copeland-produced movie soundtrack. It all began... in Akron, Ohio, where Neil Zaza was born, and still resides. Zaza started playing guitar at the age of 10 and went on to study classical guitar at The University of Akron under renowned educator and performer Stephen Aron. Zaza began to teach guitar, and in 1987 he formed the rock band Zaza, which quickly became one of the hottest U.S. touring bands at that time. After a successful run and even a hit song “Maybe Tomorrow”, the band disbanded and a brilliant solo career began.
