The Doobie Brothers aren't happy that Bill Murray is using their song to sell 'ugly' golf shirts


(CNN) The Doobie Brothers claim actor Bill Murray has been using one of their songs without permission to sell "ugly" golf shirts and they want the actor to pay up. In a Wednesday letter to Murray and William Murray Golf -- owned by the actor and his brothers -- the band's attorney, Peter Paterno, accused the company and the actor of using the band's song "Listen to the Music" in commercials for the company's "Zero Hucks Given" golf shirts. "However, given that you haven't paid to use it, maybe you should change the company name to 'Zero Bucks Given,'" the letter reads. The letter goes on to cite the US Copyright Act, and says Murray should "already know you can't use music in ads without paying for it." It concludes with: "We'd almost be OK with it if the shirts weren't so damn ugly.
