I went to an REM show once, about 20 years ago. Stipe was so busy talking politics throughout the show that he forgot to be even marginally entertaining.
To: bryan999
I doubt they can stop it as long as FOX pays their dues to BMI.

Not surprised; Michael Stipe is a sodomite.

correct. There’s nothing they can do about it. If REM wants to quit ASCAP or BMI and put their money where their mouth is...yeah, right, like they’ll do that.

Uh oh, they’ve said too much,

I seriously doubt that Fox uses any music without proper clearances.

Well, I’m sure FOX News didn’t play the entire song, but I’m thinking it’s 100% legal (that’s of course not to say that REM can’t complain about it). Isn’t there some 30 second allowance or something when it comes to these things?

I guess REM would rather the GOP stop buying their records.

If Stipe is really the egalitarian he claims to be, when will he donate every last cent he made in REM to the race based NGO of his choice?
Waiting patiently for the Great Humanitarian to show his generosity.
To: bryan999
Funny how so many bands are “apolitical” until someone they don’t agree with politically wants to use their music (not that R.E.M. is apolitical)...
Idiots.
