If I'm Wrong, I'll Willingly Stand to be Corrected, But Isn't This Scary ??? - Tiggi - 05-01-2012

NME story about Indiana Senator, Vaneta Becker, who has gone to the trouble of proposing a bill to fine musicians $25 if they deviate from the original lyrics of The Star Spangled Banner, at any event sponsored by Public Schools or Universities.

I understand the sentiment, but surely this is just unworkable nonsense ???

^ I always found it funny when teenagers try and talk about politics, it's somewhere between hilarious and cringe-worthy

ridiculous Tiggi
they ought to fine her for suggesting it

actually that article is a little misleading
she is a senator for the state of Indiana, and not a U.S. Senator

Serious question.

If that were to be signed into law (which it woudn't), it woud be an Indiana state law, not a national (U.S.) law.

OK, I understand now.

That is a bit misleading then.

Pesky music journalists...
