I knew they’d tell McCain to stop using it.

I wonder if they know that Todd and Sarah Palin’s son is named Trig Van Palin.

Too bad this “Van Halen” character isn’t going with the winner.

Mccain should dust off the old John Phyllip Sousa or George Cohen music, use them from now on and really piss off the democrats.

Got news for VH... if the venue has an ASCAP license they don’t have a case.

What luck that they were found in a semi-conscious state so they could issue a comment.

If I understand how the copyright situation works Eddie can't stop anyone from playing the song if they pay the royalties to use it.

Both times I paid to see Van Halen live in concert, they sucked.

I didnt think they required permission to play them in intros? I heard a Alan Jackson song being played when Obama accepted his nomination and i doubt Alan is a supporter.

Sammy Hagar would be glad to come in and sing it live, he’s been a longtime Republican supporter.

"but sources close to the band tell us, "They're not political, they're just rock and roll."

Let me invision this: The WHOLE band gathered around a big screen TV anxiously awaiting McCain's VP pick.

The song "Right Now" starts to play.

The current band members and management staff sit back and start applauding knowing the revenue that will arise from the renued interest in the song and the band due to the free national exposure will be most welcomed.

Meanwhile, at the same time at McCain Campaign Headquarters, the phone rings, with one of the McCain Campaign members answering it.

"Hello?" is the reply to the ringing phone.

The next reply is: "I ll see if I can get someone for you....one moment:....( puts hand over the mouth piece and yells)....someone from Van Halen is on the phone complaining about using the "Right Now" song.......go get one of the higher-ups that aren't in Dayton, and tell him a very angry David Lee Roth person is on the phone..."
