Short story:
It is reported that Motley Crue and Live Nation are being sued by a man who claims he owns the copyright on the widely-seen 'belt buckle photo' used on the cover of the Crue's 1981 debut album Too Fast For Love. According to a lawsuit, filed in Illinois Northern District Court by Ron Toma, the photograph was taken by photographer Michael Pinter in 1981, but the group and Live Nation used the image without permission on signature hoodies.
