Rolling Stones warn Trump not to use their songs - or face legal action6 hours ago linkThe Rolling Stones have warned US President Donald Trump that he could face legal action if he continues using their songs at his campaign rallies. A statement from the band's legal team said it was working with the performing rights organisation, the BMI, to stop the unauthorised use of their music. The Trump campaign used the song You Can't Always Get What You Want at last week's rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The same song was used by the Trump campaign during the 2016 US election. "The Rolling Stones do not endorse Donald Trump," the band tweeted in 2016. In a statement released on Saturday, representatives for the group said that "further steps to exclude" Mr Trump from using Rolling Stones material in future presidential campaigning was necessary after previous "cease and desist directives" had been ignored. The BMI has reportedly notified the Trump campaign on behalf of the Stones that the use of their songs without permission will constitute a breach of its licensing agreement, and would be subject to legal action.

ALL THE ARTISTS WHO HAVE TOLD TRUMP TO STOP USING THEIR MUSIC
TIMELINE
June 16, 2015On the same day he announced his candidacy, Trump was denounced by Canadian-born singer-songwriter Neil Young, who put out a statement saying Trump was “not authorized” to play ‘Rockin’ In The Free World’ at his announcement and noting that Young was a supporter of Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders.
September 9, 2015Rock band R.E.M. said they “do not authorize or condone” Trump playing ‘It’s the End of the World as We Know It’ at a rally to oppose the Iran deal, with bassist Mike Mills telling Trump to, “cease and desist,” and lead singer Michael Stipe tweeting, “Go f**k yourselves, the lot of you—you sad, attention grabbing, power-hungry little men. Do not use our music or my voice for your moronic charade of a campaign."
October 14, 2015Trump begrudgingly agreed to stop using the music of 70’s rock band Aerosmith, tweeting that lead singer Stephen Tyler “asked me not to,” and declaring he’d “have better one to take its place,” later claiming in a follow-up tweet that Tyler “got more publicity on his song request than he’s gotten in ten years.”
February 1, 2016A spokesperson for Adele decried Trump’s use of her songs ‘Skyfall’ and ‘Rolling in the Deep’ at his rallies, saying in a statement that the British pop singer “has not given permission for her music to be used for any political campaigning.”
February 2, 2016British singer Elton John, a staple of the Trump presidency whose song ‘Rocketman’ was the inspiration for Trump’s eponymous nickname for North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un, slammed Trump for using his music, later saying it was “nothing personal” and that he doesn’t want his music used in American elections.
July 19, 2016British rock band Queen persistently hit Trump and the GOP over their use of their use of ‘We Are The Champions’ at the 2016 Republican National Convention, saying in a statement that they were “frustrated by the repeated unauthorized use of the song after a previous request to desist,” and that the band “does not want its associated with any mainstream or political debate in any country.”
July 20, 2016R&B groups Earth, Wind & Fire and The O’Jays echoed Queen’s complaints about the Republican Convention over the GOP’s use of ‘September’ and ‘Love Train,’ with Earth, Wind & Fire tweeting “Another unauthorized use (September) at the Republican Convention, against our wishes,” and the O’Jays saying Trump “may be the anti-Christ.”
July 22, 2016British bands The Beatles and The Rolling Stones both decried the use of their music at the Republican Convention as well, with the estate of the late Beatles singer George Harrison stating, “The unauthorized use of ‘Here Comes the Sun’ at the RNC is offensive & against the wishes of the George Harrison estate,” joking that they may have approved the use of ‘Beware of Darkness.’
January 17, 2017Twisted Sister guitarist and manager Jay Jay French claimed that singer Dee Snider, a one-time Celebrity Apprentice contestant and friend of Trump, quietly asked him to stop using ‘We’re Not Gonna Take It’ as his campaign anthem after its use sparked outcry from his fans–one of the few instances where Trump complied.
October 30, 2018Singer Pharrell Williams sent a cease-and-desist letter to Trump for playing ‘Happy’ at a rally in Indiana just hours after the Tree of Life synagogue shooting in Pennsylvania, which left 11 congregants dead, with his attorney writing in a letter, “there was nothing 'happy' about the tragedy inflicted upon our country on Saturday and no permission was granted for your use of this song for this purpose."
November 5, 2018Attorneys for Rihanna issued a cease-and-desist order over Trump’s use of ‘Don’t Stop The Music,’ declaring that the Barbadian singer “has not provided her consent to Mr. Trump to use her music. Such use is therefore improper,” and that use of the song “creates a false impression that Ms. Fenty is affiliated with, connected to or otherwise associated with Trump.”
November 5, 2018Guns N’ Roses lead vocalist Axl Rose tweeted that, like many other artists, the band “has formally requested our music not be used at Trump rallies or Trump associated events,” but that the campaign “is using loopholes in the various venues’ blanket performance licenses which were not intended for such craven political purposes, without the songwriters’ consent.”
October 11, 2019After filing a copyright complaint, Canadian rock band Nickelback succeeded in getting Twitter to remove a manipulated version of the music video for their song ‘Photograph,’ tweeted by Trump, which attempted to tie former Vice President Joe Biden to a Ukrainian gas executive.
October 14, 2019The estate of the late singer Prince claimed that Trump “confirmed a year ago that the campaign would not use Prince’s music” and said they would “never give permission to President Trump to use Prince’s songs,” after he played ‘Purple Rain’ at a rally in Minneapolis.
January 15, 2020R.E.M. said they were “exploring all legal avenues” to prevent Trump from using their music at his rallies after he played ‘Everybody Hurts’ and ‘Losing My Religion’ at a rally in Milwaukee, adding “please know that we do not condone the use of our music by this fraud and con man.”
June 22, 2020The family of late singer Tom Petty said in a statement that Trump was “in no way authorized” to play ‘I Won’t Back Down’ at his Tulsa rally, adding that Petty and his family “firmly stand against racism and discrimination of any kind,” calling the Trump campaign a “campaign of hate” and issuing a cease-and-desist notice.
June 24, 2020Panic! At the Disco vocalist Brendon Urie tweeted, “Dear Trump Campaign, f**k you. You’re not invited. Stop playing my song,” and said Trump “represents nothing we stand for. The highest hope we have is voting this monster out in November,” after Trump’s son Donald Trump Jr. walked out to ‘High Hopes’ at a rally in Phoenix.
June 28, 2020The Rolling Stones said in a statement that they are working with music rights company BMI to stop Trump from playing their songs at his rally after he played ‘You Can’t Always Get What You Want’ at his rally in Tulsa, adding that BMI has “notified the Trump campaign on behalf of the Stones that the unauthorized use of their songs will constitute a breach of its licensing agreement,” and that if he continues to use their music, “he would face a lawsuit for breaking the embargo and playing music that has not been licensed.”

Wash (not lick) your fingers clean Donations to Helping The Heroes See More A very worthy cause by a worthy charitable organization. “We don’t always ask our leaders to take us into war, but we all seek to help bring democratic freedoms and human rights – especially for women and children – to troubled nations throughout the world. On behalf of the brave young men and women of our troops abroad, I urge you to support the victims of IED madness, now in need of rehabilitation and care. For them and their families, please support the Global Campaign against IEDs.” – Ian Anderson

Wash (not lick) your fingers clean Donations to Helping The Heroes See More bravewords.com/JETHRO TULL LEGEND IAN ANDERSON ENDORSES "MADE IN AMERICA" HAND SANITIZER TO SUPPORT SMALL BUSINESSES, HEALTHCARE WORKERS, FIRST RESPONDERS AND VETERANSJuly 7, 2020, 10 hours ago The small businesses in Virginia today received a major endorsement for their hand sanitizer project from progressive rock and roll legend Ian Anderson, founding member of the band Jethro Tull, for their efforts producing an all “made in America” hand sanitizer. The Virginia Hand Sanitizer consortium coordinated by the Center for Applied Innovation, LLC (CAI) in Yorktown, Virginia has been coordinating formulation and sales of 80% World Health Organization hand sanitizer to government agencies as well as donating thousands of gallons to first responders, healthcare workers, local charities and other during and following the COVID-19 pandemic. The Group continues to work diligently with a Virginia Service Disabled Veteran-Owned CAI and the non-profit Partners International Foundation’s Helping the Heroes project in a consortium to help produce and distribute volume production of sanitizers to regional health and emergency workers by leveraging Virginia distilleries, breweries, beer distributors, cider makers, and wineries to support this effort. The consortium provides a seamless, centrally managed, and decentralized operation to meet hand sanitizer needs while helping put people in Virginia back to work and keep them working in these sectors. To date the group has delivered hundreds of thousands of bottles purchased by State and local agencies as well as donated thousands of bottles of hand sanitizer to a myriad to a growing number of local and regional charities. Ian Anderson is lending his support to the effort by making it the “only officially sanctioned Jethro Tull sanitizer hand rub”. Jethro Tull hand sanitizer is sold exclusively through the “Helping The Heroes” website with the proceeds helping small businesses remain open and funding the groups’ donation programs. “A wee drop of the strong stuff! Of course for the hands only. Keep yourself safe, and by doing that you keep others safe, too. All in a good cause so choose this. The only officially-sanctioned Jethro Tull sanitizer hand rub,” states Ian Anderson. “This is an important long-term initiative for Virginia”, said Bob Morris the Center for Applied Innovation’s President. “100% of the hand sanitizer down to the bottles and boxes it is in comes from Virginia and other U.S. Small businesses. This is a very important story of coming together to solve critical problems and keep American workers employed.” linkwww.loudersound.com/news/jethro-tull-launch-charity-hand-sanitiserwww.blabbermouth.net/news/jethro-tulls-ian-anderson-endorses-made-in-america-hand-sanitizer/

Forgive me if I don't log on every day as there's some great posts to read from the last 6 weeks. O and I did almost fall off a commode, found out my consultant was a Tull fan and that was only the beginning. THANK YOU NHS AND DERRIFORD HOSPITAL

So the commode story belongs to the "going to the toilet/karzi/bog" series of anecdotes which I expect many would know about and possibly even empathize with. Least to say it happened at 5 in the morning, woke the whole ward up and gave everyone a good laugh especially having the curtains pulled back from around my bed to see two of my fellow patients with their heads hanging out the window. Oh how we all laughed

SPINAL TAP TO REUNITE FOR FUNDRAISER
The fictional rock band Spinal Tap, immortalized in the 1984 “mockumentary” bearing their name, will reunite with costar Rob Reiner for a virtual fundraiser on Oct. 14. Guitarist Nigel Tufnel (a.k.a actor Christopher Guest), bassist Derek Smalls (Harry Shearer) and singer David St. Hubbins (Michael McKean) will team up with Reiner to help raise funds for Democrats in Pennsylvania — a traditional swing state that is likely to be a deciding factor in next month’s presidential election. The virtual reunion will be hosted by Patton Oswalt — find more info here. “Announcing today: ‘This Is Spinal Tap’ cast is reuniting to benefit the Democratic Party of Pennsylvania,” Reiner tweeted Thursday night. “Join me, Christopher Guest, Harry Shearer and Michael McKean on Oct.14 for a virtual reunion and help @padems #TakeItToEleven.” The announcement reads, “This one-time LIVE event is only streaming Wednesday, October 14th, and every dollar raised goes directly towards ending Trumpism by winning Pennsylvania. “MOST PEOPLE ARE CHIPPING IN $20.20. Add your donation now for your link to the livestream on 10/14!” The musicians have reunited many times in the years since the film’s release, most elaborately in 1992 for a new album, “Break Like the Wind,” and tour. In an act of resounding absurdity, they also played New York’s prestigious Carnegie Hall in 2001. The most recent major reunion took place as part of the Tribeca Film Festival in New York last year. The three musicians delivering a set packed with their “classics,” complete with a special guest appearance by Elvis Costello, at New York’s Beacon Theatre last year as part of the Tribeca Film Festival. Reiner, in character as Marty DiBergi, director of the original “mockumentary,” was also on hand for the post-screening, pre-performance Q&A.
