Members blue2blue Posted July 30, 2015 Members Share Posted July 30, 2015 And, not only that, the erstwhile owners of the apparently thoroughly bogus copyright, Warner/Chappell Music, very much appear to have hidden and apparently even doctored evidentiary documents to help keep their claim to the much-sung song alive.

Members Anderton Posted July 30, 2015 Members Share Posted July 30, 2015 Wow! Corruption and deception are everywhere. It's only through the goodness of my heart that I'm not suing anyone over my ownership of the Star-Spangled Banner copyright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[img']http://www.harmonycentral.com/forum/core/images/smilies/wink.png[/img] Nothing spoils a kid's birthday party quicker than a bounty hunter for BMI or ASCAP leaning on the single-mom host for licensing fees! Ma'am, I don't see a duly granted performance license for that song, here. I'm afraid I'm going to have to take you downtown to the [bMI or ASCAP] field office for questioning. Keep your hands where I can see them and step away from the birthday cake... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Vito Corleone Posted August 5, 2015 Members Share Posted August 5, 2015 Hey, I'm still trying to sue the guys who CLAIM they wrote "ABCDEFG". Being that I'm the own who owns the rights to "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star", I think I'm due.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
