Although his name rhymed with his hit 1982 song “Maneater,” no one on the panel managed to guess his true identity.“That was the first thing I thought of. They were trying to make a connection between ‘Maneater’ and Anteater, but no one else seemed to get that for some reason, which I found kind of surprising,” he told Entertainment Weekly of the clue.

John Oates has filed a first-person declaration defending himself after his longtime music partner and one-half of Hall & Oates, Daryl Hall, has accused him of trying to sell his part of their music rights.“Far from becoming ‘adversarial and aggressive instead of professional and courteous,’ as Daryl has claimed, over the last 50 years I have always devoted my energy to ensuring that both the public and the music industry perceive the Hall & Oates music and brand in the most positive light,” Oates, 75, said in his court documents, obtained by Billboard.Oates claims that the pair “have not seen eye to eye,” but he has presented “opportunities to improve and protect the business and artistic integrity of the partnership.”“In fact, Daryl has become unwilling to work with me to try to protect the marks and other intellectual property that we spent decades building,” he continued to allege.“[Just Hall has] consistently and publicly been adamant about being perceived as an individual rather than as part of a duo or group,” he went on,” and “now [I] must act with truthfulness and make decisions that are right for myself, my family, and my artistic future.”On Nov. 16, Hall, 77, and his organization, the Daryl Hall Revocable Trust, filed an initial lawsuit against Oates’ trust, the John W.

Hall & Oates business dispute, which has been under wraps in sealed court documents, is now being litigated in open court, making the reasons for their legal clash clearer.

Jem Aswad Executive Editor, Music A Nashville judge has temporarily blocked John Oates’ proposed sale of his share of the Hall & Oates business partnership to Primary Wave until a private arbitrator hears the case, according to a Billboard report on Thursday. The move is the latest in the ongoing, rather mysterious legal battle between the estranged longtime musical partners.

Daryl Hall has explained why he is suing John Oates – claiming that he was left “blindsided” by his plan to sell a business stake – while the latter described the claims as “inaccurate”.Daryl Hall wrote a strongly worded statement about Oates’ alleged breach of their business partnership agreement in a declaration filed in Nashville Chancery Court last night (November 29).Obtained by Rolling Stone, the outlet reported that Hall accused his bandmate of making a “completely clandestine and bad faith move” by trying to sell a share of their business without Hall’s consent. It also claims that he was only told about the deal to sell half of Whole Oats Enterprises (WOE) to Primary Wave just two days before he was set to leave on a month-long tour.According to the report, Hall objects to the sale as he disagrees with the “business model” of Primary Wave, and thinks a sale could do “unimaginable” harm to the trademarks, personal name, royalties and online properties of Whole Oats Enterprises.“I was blindsided by this information,” Hall said of the proposed sale.

the Hall & Oates drama continues — with Daryl Hall suing John Oates and getting a restraining order against his longtime partner to block the sale of his share of their publishing royalties to Primary Wave — it’s clear that being in one of music’s biggest duos isn’t always the stuff of making your dreams come true.In fact, being in a duo — as opposed to a band — has been a particularly difficult musical marriage to negotiate throughout pop history. It’s a curse that Hall & Oates managed to avoid for five decades until it even caught up to them deep into their 70s.Here are some other top twosomes who ultimately became out of touch.The Tennessee twosome of Don Everly and his younger brother, Phil, were early rock pioneers in the late ’50s with hits such as “Bye Bye Love,” “Wake Up Little Susie” and “All I Have to Do Is Dream.” But all was not as smooth as their harmonies for the brothers.After they both enlisted in the Marines in 1961, they had relatively little success once they were discharged.

in a feud and legal battle. It all began when Hall filed a lawsuit against his former musical partner Oates on Nov. 16.

Daryl Hall is suing John Oates for his plans to sell his share of a joint venture.On November 17, it was revealed that Hall was granted a restraining order against his longtime former musical partner. Whilst many of the details were kept under seal, a reporter suggested that “based on captions for the filings in the chancery clerk’s system, a business trust is at the center of the dispute.”Today, AP News has given more information about the lawsuit, revealing that Hall & Oates have a joint venture and Oates intended to sell his share to a company called Primary Wave.

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic The mystery of why Daryl Hall obtained a restraining order against John Oates has been solved, at least in part, now that part of the case has been unsealed by a Tennessee judge who previously ordered all details to be kept under wraps. It’s now been revealed that Hall is attempting to block his longtime musical partner from selling his share in their joint venture to Primary Wave Music. On Friday afternoon, the Associated Press was first to report the actual reason for the restraining order, after the judge quietly unsealed some — but not nearly all — of the case two days earlier, on Thanksgiving eve.

John Oates has issued a social media statement calling for empathy, but avoiding the main issue of the moment: why he and longtime collaborator Daryl Hall are engaged in litigation.

Daryl Hall and John Oates always wanted to be looked at as individuals for their talent — so their band name, Hall & Oates, never did them any favors.Three years before Hall, 77, filed a lawsuit against his longtime music collaborator, Oates revealed why they never decided to flip the moniker to “Oates & Hall.”“He’s taller and older than me, so there you go!” Oates, 75, told The Post ahead of their sold-out Madison Square Garden show in New York City in February 2020.Years earlier, Hall would give his own take on their decision while speaking with the San Jose Mercury News.“The reason we’ve always insisted on our full names is because we consider ourselves to be two individual artists. We’re not really a classic duo in that respect,” he told the newspaper in 2017.

after being mysteriously sued by his longtime collaborator Daryl Hall.On his social media channels, Oates, 75, posted a Thanksgiving message Thursday preaching “a more compassionate and supportive world.”“During this time of communal reflection and connection with loved ones, let’s not forget those experiencing challenges globally,” the Hall & Oates musician wrote. “As we come together, consider reaching out to support those in need—whether through local charities or international humanitarian initiatives.

Daryl Hall’s lawsuit against music partner John Oates may have shocked fans, but the pair have made it clear through the years that they aren’t best friends — to put it mildly.“John and I are brothers, but we are not creative brothers,” Hall declared during an interview on the “Club Random with Bill Maher” podcast in December 2022.“We are business partners. We made records called Hall & Oates together, but we’ve always been very separate, and that’s a really important thing for me,” he added.The musician also implied that he did most of the work, noting that their 1980 song “Kiss on My List” doesn’t list Oates as a songwriter.Earlier this month, Hall and his organization, the Daryl Hall Revocable Trust, filed a lawsuit against Oates and Oates’ trust, the John W.
