		<strong> BUZZ</strong>:  
		It&#8217;s worth noting that the Convention would not have needed permission from the Wilson sisters, but a license from ASCAP. Unless we know they didn&#8217;t have that either, calling it &#8220;stealing&#8221; is premature. It&#8217;s one of the wonders of copyright: just because Ann Wilson doesn&#8217;t like it, it doesn&#8217;t make it wrong.

		I wonder if a public performance license by venues covers the playing of the music these artists are bitching about. Can you imagine a rock group that was pro-choice not wanting their songs to be played in a planned parenthood office?

 I found this FAQ on Music Licensing- it may answer some questions.
