Bill Murray’s Lawyer Responds To Doobie Brothers’ Attorney By Offering ‘Ugly’ Golf Shirts Instead Of Money For Using Their Song In Ad
Bill Murray is offering up his “ugly” golf shirts to the Doobie Brothers to “upgrade” their “wardrobes,” after they called him out for using their music in an ad.
The iconic music group’s attorney penned a letter to the actor, 70, this week after he used their track “Listen To The Music” in an ad for his “Zero Hucks Given” golf polo without their permission.
“Dear Mr. Murray,” the letter begins. “We’re writing on behalf of our clients, the Doobie Brothers. The Doobie Brothers performed and recorded the song ‘Listen To The Music’, which Tom Johnston of the Doobie Brothers wrote. It’s a fine song. I know you agree because you keep using it in ads for your ‘Zero Hucks Given’ golf shirts. However, given that you haven’t paid to use it, maybe you should change the company name to ‘Zero Bucks Given’.”
They added, “It seems like the only person who uses our clients’ music without permission more than you is Donald Trump.”

I never got Bill Murray. I respect that many people find him funny, but his schtick always went right over my head.
He's done a near endless amount of cool things for total strangers.
