Do Korn sue people for selling their bootleg CDs?

Who is better: Eric Clapton or a singing turd?

Let me guess, the Eric Clapton edition existed just because he revealed to be Anti-Vax since 2020(Prior to this, he was usually apolitical and never even discusses political issues at all from what I seen until he gone anti-vax)?

Clapton has always been a racist scumbag. Read post number 2.

I won't put up any YouTube videos in case he hears about it and sues me.

^ FTFY, Trollheart.

Just because I think this performance is just bursting with Cream at their aggressive, exciting best: listen to it loud and see what "attacking a song" really means:-

(Vocals- Jack Bruce, drums-ginger Baker, lead guitarist - cannot be named for legal reasons, and for fear of upsetting TH)

For some reason, in my opinion he really "went south" when he fully went solo even before the rant that's been quoted many times over (and justifiably - in a live setting that's never called for such stuff). In bands - Bluesbreakers, Yardbirds, Cream, Blind Faith, Derek and The Dominos - he was alright even though I still don't get the "God" thing attached to him. He could have even formed something with George Harrison and made it work if Cream's "Badge" is anything to go by. Maybe there was just being with others that curtailed the very elements which made many criticize him.

Growing up, I heard the talent but never really got into the MOR AOR/Dad Rock that he created. Maybe it was the Alternative 80's in me, but I seriously laughed when I heard "I Got a Rock and Roll Heart" and heard nothing but bland bar music while moving into '85 and wanting him to stop despite the fact that "Forever Man" was a hit with a capital S.

The recent bit about going against someone selling a Bootleg (Live USA, just in case someone asks) that was one that can be bought from a German store (and I'm sure others) in the 90's was really something that could have been handled better by both parties but has shown the lack of communication we have today. Imtrat went through the loopholes and released a number of those dodgy discs, many of them under the Live USA banner - some possibly of serious historical interest to listeners - but to me it should have be a hint that it really should have been "No Go" to e-bay it if you can't sell it on Discogs. It was all clickbait headlines and the rest.
