New York Governor Eliot Spitzer has signed the Truth In Music law which outlaws bogus bands from performing in the state under the name of established artists. The hairbands traveling the country with just their original bass player need not worry, this law only outlaws performing under a band name if the group playing does not feature any original members and if they get caught it could cost them a cool $15,000.

"Music artists work for years to build names for themselves in the entertainment industry," Spitzer said in a statement. "We should not allow others to impersonate their work and profit from that deception." - more on this story
