From HITS Daily Double:
On the Rockstar: INXS front, the management derby for finalist Marty Casey has closed, with veteran manager Doc McGhee taking on the duties. Casey, who is a native of Chicago, was previously in the Lovehammers, who were a Wheels fave a couple years back…
Whoever wrote this for Hits Daily Double didn't do his/her homework, but that's okay. Saw a bio on Doc McGhee-represents some very good artist.

On the MSN board a while ago Marty's brother John mentioned something about Doc McGee. I hope we get an official announcement from Lh soon.
