Quite the opposite, play it even more. It just burns Prissy to no ends, she tried to stop him from using it but failed!

"I think our band represents all the great losers of the world,"

Duh!

[boomop1]

My understanding is, she said she never objected to him playing it, it came through the rumor mill and Rush stopped. Then she said oh no I never said anything against him using it and he resumed using it. I may be wrong but I'm pretty sure that is close to what happened.

I agree with Diddle E. Squat. If it gets under her skin, all the more reason for Rush to keep the song. Imagine an audience full of young people who never heard her stuff played on the air chanting "Play the Limbaugh song, play the Limbaugh song." ROTFLMAO

[SamAdams76]

Exactly. Rush pulling the bumper will be exactly what Prissy will want. I'm sure it annoys her to no end.

[oline]

Yes, I agree...

But on the other hand, the pig gets royalties everytime Rush plays it.

[raccoonradio]

Yup. She's from Akron, OH (a pretty nice city; I have a friend in the radio biz there and visited him last year).
The song Rush uses is called "My City Was Gone" (presumably about the Tire City) and does pop up on classic rock/alternative stations. Lyrics, in case you're wondering (found on Net):

(the pulsating bassline you hear on Rush's show starts, and then...)
I WENT BACK TO OHIO
BUT MY CITY WAS GONE
THERE WAS NO TRAIN STATION
THERE WAS NO DOWNTOWN
SOUTH HOWARD HAD DISAPPEARED
ALL MY FAVORITE PLACES
MY CITY HAD BEEN PULLED DOWN
REDUCED TO PARKING SPACES
A, O, WAY TO GO OHIO

WELL I WENT BACK TO OHIO
BUT MY FAMILY WAS GONE
I STOOD ON THE BACK PORCH
THERE WAS NOBODY HOME
I WAS STUNNED AND AMAZED
MY CHILDHOOD MEMORIES
SLOWLY SWIRLED PAST
LIKE THE WIND THROUGH THE TREES
A, O, OH WAY TO GO OHIO

I WENT BACK TO OHIO
BUT MY PRETTY COUNTRYSIDE
HAD BEEN PAVED DOWN THE MIDDLE
BY A GOVERNMENT THAT HAD NO PRIDE
THE FARMS OF OHIO
HAD BEEN REPLACED BY SHOPPING MALLS
AND MUZAK FILLED THE AIR
FROM SENECA TO CUYAHOGA FALLS
SAID, A, O, OH WAY TO GO OHIO
