Politicians using songs without prior/proper permission

[joy_happy]

I came across Lorenzo Ninal's blog (insoy of Missing Filemon) then kabasa ko ani:

among gibuykot ang event gabii sa cordova human namo nahibaw-an nga naglanog-lanog ang kantang 'prinsipal' sa venue ug sa headquarters sa mga politikong sitoy, who sponsored the event. GIILISAN NILA ANG LYRICS UG GIHIMONG CAMPAIGN JINGLE NGA WALA GANI NAGPAHIBAWO NAMO. usa sa atong suod nga mga higala ni-text nako about it. after confirming the incident from other sources nga tua sa venue, dj ram among them, i told my bandmates nga dili ko motukar didto. playing there, as if nothing happened, would mean nga okay ra ko sa nahitabo. i texted the one who invited us that we're boycotting the event to protest against what they did to one of our songs. we are gathering evidence and planning our next move. dili ni namo palabyon.

***unsa inyo masulti ani mga bai? kinsa pa uban ninyo nahibaw-an?
