Hey gang,here's one to chew on,let's say just for fun that at their audition otis had not come up with a new name,would berry have let them call themselves-the distants? And would he have bought the rights to that name from johnnie mae matthews and would she have asked for a peice of the group at that point?? Hmmmmmm what do ya think??

I think the answers to all your questions are in the affirmative based on the actual actions of all parties you mentioned in their lifetimes!
