Mug shot aficionados are likely aware that TSG has unearthed a host of previously unseen celebrity mug shots, from Tupac Shakur and Andre The Giant to Johnny Cash and 50 Cent. Today we're adding to that list with this marvelous booking photo of David Bowie, which was snapped in Rochester, New York following the singer's March 1976 arrest on a felony pot possession charge.

Prince Suing Pirates Not Fans
Prince's camp has denied suing fansites and instead his UK promotion company says that the Purple one is targeting pirate sites. In fact, he is reportedly planning to sue The Pirate Bay in not just his native U.S. but in two different countries in Europe and Israeli based companies that advertise on Pirate Bay.
News.com reports that Prince plans to file suit in the U.S. also plans to file "suit in the next few days against The Pirate Bay in France, a country known for tough copyright laws, and Sweden, where The Pirate Bay is based. In addition, Prince is preparing to take civil action against some of the Israel-based companies that advertise on The Pirate Bay, according to John Giacobbi, Web Sheriff's president."

Prince threatens to sue his fans over online images
He's a singer who has made some odd career moves in his time, from changing his name to an unpronounceable love symbol to scrawling "slave" on his cheek in protest at his record company.
But industry experts yesterday warned that Prince's latest decision might be the most controversial of all.
He has threatened to sue thousands of his biggest fans for breach of copyright, provoking an angry backlash and claims of censorship.
