EMI Tries to Shutdown Radiohead Influenced Play
November 21, 1998
"The Untitled RADIOHEAD Project" is a play being performed in Los Angeles which is based on Radiohead lyrics. EMI claims that the producers and directors are making illegal use of the band's lyrics and music. The play's creator said that he already received permission from the band's spokesperson and informed the band that EMI was trying to close the play. Radiohead met with EMI to inform them that they would "supersede" the record company and allow the play to run uninterrupted.
