so by the band's manager. Has he never been legally enjoined from doing so ?? He got in trouble back in May for having VP imitators perform "Macho Man" at MaL. (Extra barf quality for trying to imply this cowardly bully is "macho".)
And why is he playing music by militantly gay musicians for ultra-reichwing audiences ?

(20,306 posts)The rights have probably been sold to a service that provides music for events. Once you've done that, you really have no say in where the music is played.

(32,267 posts)They have sold the rights to their music to a licensing company. Which means anybody can use the music. If they had not wanted as much money as they could get, they would have kept their rights and control.

(50,655 posts)Which brings up the next question: Did Trump license the song or is he just using it without compensating the rightsholder?
