Kevin Spacey, the film actor turned Bobby Darin impersonator turned artistic director of the Old Vic Theatre Company in London, had a problem with the title of the new album by the indie band Cassettes Won’t Listen. The title: KEVINSPACEY.
So the actor Kevin Spacey issued a cease-and-desist order against the album KEVINSPACEY.
Rather than shush the title entirely, Cassettes Won’t Listen (a cool, production-savvy one-man-band who also answers to the name Jason Drake) silenced just the first letter. The new album has thus been given an even spacier moniker, EVINSPACEY, and will be released June 21 on the Daylight Curfew label.
You can hear a sample track, “Perfect Day,” here.
So has does Mr. Kevin Spacey (with caps and spaces) feel about the theater event Channeling Kevin Spacey, enjoying an open run at St. Luke’s Theatre in NYC at $59.50 a seat? The show mocks movie roles made famous by Kevin Spacey and his old pal Al Pacino.
Will K. Spacey seek to change that channel too?
