2433...Rush Not Tea Drinkers

Macleans.ca reports that Rand Paul, the libertarian Tea Party candidate for a U.S. Senate seat in Kentucky, has been handed a cease and desist letter from Ontario's own geezer rock band Rush.

Turns out Mr. Liberty forgot to ask permission to use The Spirit of Radio and Tom Sawyer on the campaign trail and in fundraising videos. “The public performance of Rush’s music is not licensed for political purposes: any public venue which allows such use is in breach of its public performance license and also liable for copyright infringement.”

F*ck you very much Mr. Paul.
