He didn't know at the time whether they had registered the name; he was bluffing on the phone.if they had registered it - you know, even though we were only playing pubs - then we wouldn't have been able to use it
He still doesn't know whether there was such a band or whether one of his friends was playing a joke on him.But we never actually heard any more, so it might have been one of my mates winding me up, doing a northern accent. I don't know

And even after the call, he is in some doubt.
