Private eyes, are watching you. I guess the money is running out finally?
Is one of them a man-eater now?
Man, that reunion is going to be epic
This is just sad.
You’ve gone to far and you know it doesn’t matter anyway.
Let’s be real, Hall was doing all the heavy lifting.
Oates just strums a guitar – he doesn’t have any inherent Musial talent
No oates in daryls basement.
Seems out of touch.
“Toured together as recently as October 2022”
That’s actually sad to hear. I liked their song adult education.
I guess they didn’t get everything their hearts desired
This is what you never want to see
Sara isn’t smiling today!
It’s a bitch, ~~girl~~ Oates, but it’s gone too far
> Hall & Oates met in 1967, formed their duo three years later and have released 18 studio albums since their 1972 debut.
> Hall & Oates toured together as recently as October 2022, and they released their latest studio album, “Home for Christmas,” in 2006.
Sad that a 50+ year partnership is going through such acrimony.
Wait, Hall and Oates is two people? I always thought it was one guy named Holland Oats.
Oof sad day. I guess I’m going to have to call the Callin’ Oates hotline 719-26-OATES (it plays emergency Hall and Oates songs if you call it)
“He’s not my creative partner. He’s my business partner.”
I always figured Oates’ main contribution to the songs was his little one word utterances after Hall sings his heart out.
“Your out of touch, I’m out of time”
*”Time!”*
As a fan I can’t go for that, no can do.
Fun fact: the band has never called themselves Hall and Oates, that was all the media and fans who did it. “There isn’t one album that says Hall and Oates. It’s always Daryl Hall and John Oates, from the very beginning. People never note that. The idea of ‘Hall and Oates’, this two-headed monster, this thing, is not anything we’ve ever wanted or liked.”
Their website is http://www.hallandoates.com though that’s the only example and that was probably for brevity’s sake.
Oates is a popular choice for anteater on ‘masked singer’ Guess the come back tour is going to end there
Rock duos almost always end of hating each other.
Uh-huh – yeesh. Not usually a sign of a humans handling things reasonably.
So I’m not going to say this is a common thing but it’s also not uncommon. I’ve seen cases like this a few times and the use of TROs can either be done with legitimate intent or it can be weaponized against the other party.
Because this is a contractual dispute, I’d take a guess that it was filed with the intent to disallow any preemptive statements to media outlets and/or any other 3^rd party, whoever or whatever that may be.
I don’t actually know their music too well but things like this can be a sign that things are not going too great on the backend…so for both of them – I hope they can resolve whatever this is amicably. Their lawyers are essentially required to drag this out as long as their clients make them – clients don’t listen to us when it’s “personal”.

I did not see that coming.
Say it isn’t so!

It’s a bitch girl…
This is sad. They did such [great things for communities](https://youtu.be/Zh5f-_I1df4?si=yyps9B3MlZjyORBs) .
Just re-record it.
I still think Daft Punk is secretly just Hall & Oates…
Restraining order ? I can’t go for that !
