Buckethead and Guns N Roses sued

According to Reuters (a very good and credible source for news), Buckethead (named as Brian Carroll) along with previous Gn’R band members Tommy Stinson and Robin Finck are being sued by British label Independiente and the US branch of the Domino Recording Company for allegedly using portions of songs belonging to a German musician.

An excerpt from the article:

Singer Axl Rose and Guns N’ Roses band members and album producers copied portions of two of Schnauss’ songs — “Wherever You Are” and “A Strangely Isolated Place” — for a song used on the band’s last album called “Riad N’ the Bedouins,” according to the lawsuit.

I doubt Buckethead would actually be liable, but it would be awesome to know what he thinks about it…
