The Ink Spots
https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/timeline/l29asq8v1w04dmd8u05qkgsr46pg9k3.png
Disputes over the rights to use the Ink Spots name began in the late 1940s, resulting in many court cases. Starting in 1954, groups calling themselves "The Ink Spots" sprang up all around the United States. Some groups contained original members Fuqua, McDonald, Bowen, or Watson, but most had no ties to the original group whatsoever. Many groups claimed to have the rights to the name, but no one did. Still, lawsuits were filed between various groups and there was great confusion as to who owned the naming rights. Some groups avoided lawsuits by naming themselves "The Fabulous Ink Spots", "The Famous Ink Spots", "The Amazing Ink Spots", "The Sensational Ink Spots", "The Dynamic Ink Spots", and more.According to writer Marv Goldberg: "The original group was a partnership, not a corporation, and that influenced judge Isidor Wasservogel to say, in 1955, that when Hoppy Jones died in 1944, it effectively served to terminate the partnership and that no one could truthfully use the name after that."[17] From 1954 to the present, more than 100 groups have used the name "The Ink Spots".[18] In 1967 US federal judge Emmet C. Choate ruled that since so many groups had been using the name "Ink Spots" it had become "public domain" and was free for anyone to use.

The Lurkers one is impossible, there were two bands going, the one with the longest timeline 'retired' and the other (with more original members) took the name.

I kinda want to do one for Caroliner but I feel like there are still some secret members who don't want to be outed.

Looks like Steven has officially become the Kenan Thompson of the Melvins bass players. Unpopular opinion, but he's the best they ever had

― pplains, Tuesday, 4 November 2025 02:19 (seven months ago)
I don’t know Firefall at all but that seems like the paradigmatic classic rock pattern - four guys in a room making the albums that will source the Greatest Hits record. Then a rapid shedding of members as the guy who’s got the trademark soldiers on, eventually reaching decades of stability with people who never were there for the glory days.
― bendy, Tuesday, 4 November 2025 03:06 (seven months ago)
Had no idea Firefall were ex-members of the Burritos, Byrds and Spirit. Didn't save them from being as tedious a band as there ever was.
― TAFKAPA (Matt #2), Tuesday, 4 November 2025 03:21 (seven months ago)
Same! Formed in Boulder, where some of those guys were just hanging out after their wild rides.
― pplains, Tuesday, 4 November 2025 04:18 (seven months ago)
Queens of the Stone Age is not as chaotic as I thought. I guess there have just been a lot of guest appearances on albums that don't count.

Timelines like that are sobering, because they remind you visually that, for example, 1966 to 1996 is the same span of time as 1996 till now.
