Legal Question in Business Law in New Jersey

Are parodies legal?

Is it legal for me to design my own parody tee shirts and sell them? The parodies would be of rock band names...for example: The Rolling Bones instead of the Rolling Stones.

You might get sued, and you might lose. Talk to an intellectual property attorney about this.
