Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump says he has worked out a settlement with Aerosmith over his use of the groups hit Dream On at campaign events.
Thats all worked out, he told reporters on Monday at the Problem Solver Convention sponsored by No Labels and The Hill before walking to the stage while the power ballad, his campaign theme, played.

I would have liked to seen the Republican nominees play Bruce Springsteen’s song “Born in the USA” on the campaign trail in 2008 and 2012.
So, it was all about $$$$$ and not politics? Weird stuff. Hank Jr. has a lot of “power ballads” Trump could use for free.
Aerosmith should be proud that Trump is using their song and paying them the royalties they deserve.
How big was the check?
I noticed, with all the problems in this Country right now, this is what the media is picking up on...
IIRC Tyler and Joe Perry are Republicans, they wanted to get paid, that’s all, can’t say I blame them.
I am on a con call at the moment, and that pic made me laugh out loud. Mute was quickly hit.
Screw Bruce Springsteen and screw "Born in the USA."
Right. Idiot MSM.
I know Perry is. He is a avid hunter too. Tyler didn’t think was republican. Thought he voted for obama?
Have you read they lyrics of that song? It is wholly anti American.
When Bruce sings it sounds like he’s trying to pass a bowling ball.
It’s fair and proper that Trump pays for the right to use this song. Even if the rights have expired, Trump has enough cash to shut Tyler up.
As Sly Stone said:”The higher the price, the nicer the nice”
I know, I know. Springsteen is a Commie. I know.
I was trying to have some fun. And it would have annoyed the hell out of both Springsteen and BHO to have used that song that I wanted it used.
Agree, it’s called copyright protection. They can however “donate” their time and sing the song live at the GOP convention :)
Springsteen is commie scum.
Pretty much all his ‘singing’ such as it is, sounds like that. I never got the love he gets even before I knew how lib he is.
