According to TMZ.com, former Trick Pony member Ira Dean is suing McDonald's because he believes he is the guy playing the upright bass on the Big 'n' Tasty hamburger box. In a federal lawsuit filed in California, Dean alleges the famous chain is using his persona, image and likeness to package and promote their hamburgers. Following a demand to "cease and desist," McDonald's hasn't done so, so Ira is suing for damages.
