I'll take your word for it...I grew up riding on dirt roads past farm
equipment on street bikes. <shrug> Not always fun true, not a problem
once you learn how to get where you want to go.<shrug> Different skill

Does that mean you steal other artists' lyrics and music to make a
living?

As with every other subject, Krusty revels in his utter ignorance.

When I -or any other musician- play someone's copyrighted material in
concert the copyright holder is paid for that usage of his (or her)
work.

Why did you think Michael Jackson bought the rights to most of the
Beatles' work? Out of the goodness of his heart?
