The fireworks appear to have started early for LimeWire and indie label Dovecote Records.  According to a detailed blog post on the Dovecote site, a misunderstanding at a LimeWire party led to accusations of stealing and some beer splashing.

To make a very long blog short, Dovecote members accidentally grabbed some pizza at a New York bar, thinking the food was free.  A LimeWire employee reported yelled at these individuals, excoriating them for stealing.  After learning that the party was hosted by LimeWire, the Dovecote crew was shocked at the hypocrisy.  One Dovecote member grabbed an entire box and dashed for the door, only to get doused by beer on the way out.

After that, the craziness continued online.  TechCrunch blasted the incident, and Twitter subsequently lit on fire.  But did the whole thing really happen?  LimeWire has not offered an official comment, though according to 'Carter' at Dovecote, the company has responded.  "I got a great note from Tom [later clarified as Director of Partner Relations Tom Monday] over at Limewire," Carter blogged in a follow-up.   "He couldn't have been nicer.  He actually offered to buy us pizza and beer."
