Why bother? What does it matter if someone has been sued? People don't INVITE others to sue them. Almost no civil (damages) lawsuits reach the courtroom. What you may want to know is whether someone LOST or WON a lawsuit that went to the jury.
That is easy. Go to your state court website, and search for his last name. The web will tell you when and why he lost or won a civil suit. Almost no site will show you the millions of lawsuits dismissed, withdrawn, or settled.
Rhianna was sued for a music video, someone said it was his work that was used in the creativity of the video.
Congress can be sued. In fact, Congress has been named as a defendant in many cases. In 2009, someone sued Congress because they felt Obama was not born in the US.
That depends on what your band has done. If you've done a cover of a song, you can't be sued aslong as you credit it to the original artists. If you've called your band the same name as someone else's band then you could be sued if they find out. If you've hit someone over the head with a can of dry ice, then you can also be sued, or even prosecuted.

Who has sued and been sued is public record, although the details about what the suit involved may not be. Most state court systems have a public database that you can search. There is usually a fee for searching these databases. Go the state court website to find a link to the state database or call the court clerk.

When a person sues you, that person must file papers with the court and "serve" or give you copies of what was filed. Until that has happened, you haven't been sued. There is no way to know what a person is "planing to do" until they do it!
