Performance-royalty mafia ASCAP has sued a Tucson, Ariz., bar for $210 million $210,000 on behalf of companies representing, ahem, "Huey Lewis & the News, Paula Abdul, Color Me Badd, Taylor Dayne, Aretha Franklin, Atlantic Starr, Dave Koz, Tommy Page, Lionel Richie, Michael Jackson, Chris Isaak and Janet Jackson." Details of the lawsuit were unavailable, but it's a good guess that the bar's owner didn't pony up for the privilege of putting Totally '80s Vol. 3 on the bar's sound system. [Tucson Citizen]
