Axl Rose vs. The Offspring: Nearly a decade in the making, Guns N' Roses almost lost the tentative title to their heavily-delayed Chinese Democracy album, thanks to an April Fool's Day prank pulled by The Offspring. "You snooze you lose," was the explanation from the Offspring singer, Dexter Holland. "Axl ripped off my braids, so I ripped off his album title," he said in a statement annoucing that The Offspring would be using the name for their fifth album. After dropping the prank, Holland later told Spinner magazine: "I heard Axl was looking into legal options but there aren't any, since you can't copyright an album title before it's released."
