Originally registered in 1996, the domain Speedwagon.com expired and was lost last month, Domain Gang reported Tuesday.
Legendary rock supergroup REO Speedwagon owned the domain nearly two decades, but the unthinkable happened, the report said.
At auction, Speedwagon.com sold for $3,550 on DropCatch, Domain Gang reported.
After a few months, the domain is currently back in the hands of the rock group, the report said.
Sporting a brand new 2018 registration date, Domain Gang reported, Speedwagon.com forwards to REOSpeedwagon.com, with interesting WHOIS information hidden – the registrant of the site is none other than Diane Ricci, the group’s business manager.
This is proof the domain isn’t simply forwarding to the group’s web site, the report said, but it’s being managed by them.
Was the domain bid on by the group, or was it sold to them by the highest bidder after the end of the auction, Domain Gang wonders?
