Anyone Copyright Their Originals

Like any dispute, you would have to file a lawsuit, but only when money is on the line...
One of my bands back in a day, I was sole writer in the band. Other guitarist start saying he wanted equal share from songs, I was like really? We are not touring ,we are not getting anywhere with this band, and you start this talk?

Eventually we broke up, and they started the band without me, I was worried they would use my songs and I could not prove it was mine. well since none of them could write song they ended up as a cover band and that didn't last long either...
 
What happens if bozos in the band start claiming it's their song when they had nothing to do with it? How can you prove you are the original author of whatever is being disputed ?
Well in the old days you just smashed a bottle of Jack Daniels and waved the broken neck at the other band guys who ripped you off, until they signed your name onto a bar napkin as cowriter. But dammit, people had to drag judges into this lol
