Sir Paul McCartney is to sue indie stars The Maccabees over the use of his name.
The former bass player with 60s quintet The Beatles says he is sick and fed up of weedy young people cashing in.
He insisted the other four Beatles would feel exactly the same if a band called themselves Ringobees, Lennobees or Harrisobees, for example.
Sir Paul's rant follows a recent rant by Ringo Starr who said he was fed up with people asking him to write his name, particularly to sign cheques after meals in restaurants.
He also wanted it placed on record that The Beatles' blue and red albums were two favourite Beatles albums of all time.
