Jack White is set to take his petty argument with former Buff Medways member Billy Childish to whole new level.
The pair have been having a very public war of words after Childish dismissed The White Stripes music in a GQ interview.
Now White is bringing in the lawyers and suing a London art gallery, where some of Childish’s artwork has been exhibited, who displayed a ‘tribute’ poster to the spat.
The offending print jokingly promotes an imaginary boxing match between Bitter ‘Billy’ Childish and Jack ‘Whingy’ White.
According to today’s Independent lawyers for the Detroit duo say that the poster violates the bands intellectual property.
Gallery owner Steven Lowe told the paper: “It was just a bit of fun but these people don't seem to have a sense of humour...I've written to the White Stripes management to see exactly what copyright we're infringing."
