Guns N' Roses frontman Axl Rose is being taken to court by his former manager.
Apparently, the rock star owes Front Line Management $2 million (£1.34 million) in unpaid commission for gigs he played overseas, through which he earned $12 million, according to Associated Press.
Fans of the metal musician may want to dig out their band T-shirts featuring the band to support him with his upcoming legal battle.
Axl is no stranger to the courts - since Slash, one of the founding members, quit the band in 1996, the two have been involved in a war of words and various legal battles.
In a blog post on the Guns website in 2008, Axl accused Slash of trying to save face around the time of the breakup, commenting that he did his best to "make me the bad guy".
Does all of this really make much difference in musical terms though? Probably not, as long as Guns N' Roses keep touring and making records you can jump around to.
After all, line-up changes and legal battles seem to be part and parcel of the band's existence.
