Alabama sues drummer for $200K

The drummer for the country group Alabama has been sued by his fellow band members, who say he was overpaid $202,670.

The lawsuit filed May 9 in the Circuit Court of DeKalb County, Ala., claims that in 2003 Mark Herndon was paid for his share of net merchandise sales during the band's "American Farewell Tour" before a final accounting was done.

The final accounting, the suit claims, found that "there were no net merchandise revenues as defined by the contract."

The lawsuit seeks to recover the money.

The four members of Alabama — Teddy Gentry, Randy Owen, Jeff Cook and Herndon — have not performed together live since the 2003 farewell tour.
