John Fogerty has responded to a lawsuit filed against him by the surviving former members of Creedence Clearwater Revival.

Fogerty has brushed aside the lawsuit filed by Doug Clifford, Stu Cook and the late Tom Fogerty's widow, which alleges that Fogerty is in breach of a 2001 agreement concerning usage of the band's name. They're also charging him with trademark violations.

"The people who come to my shows know they will hear me sing and play the songs I wrote and recorded over the past four decades of my career," he said.

"Every night we play live, I'm thrilled to see all of those fans singing along to the songs that have touched them.

I am at a wonderful place in my life. I am playing the music that I love and wrote, with full joy and having my son Shane joining along side of me — it doesn't get much better than that."

"No lawyers, lawsuits or angry ex-band members will stop me ever again from singing my songs.

I am going to continue to tour and play all my songs every single night I am out on the road," Fogerty added. "Rockin' all over the world!"
