As well they should have.

I've followed this story loosely, & it was just a weak attempt at a cash grab. Someone (not here) posted a link to a string instrumental that was written back in the 1700's & it had some parts that sounded like "Stairway".

I guess I won't go after Alice in Chains for stealing my riff and using it in I Stay Away. Damn you Jerry Cantrell

The singer and guitarist were in the US district court for the climax of a six-day trial that gripped the music industry and put the band’s history and credibility under a forensic microscope. So sad man...
