DanvillRob Posted February 3, 2013 Author Share Posted February 3, 2013 Are you getting royalty fee checks?......If so....COOL! That was pirated. I've spoken to the singer on the song. Her name is "April March"....(I suspect that's a stage-name). When that song was released on the "You Got Yours" CD, I was lined up to get royalties...but whatever the percentage was for the performer....divided by 5....so not much. The writer got his percentage plus 1/5 of the performer's percentage....so basically he got something...me...not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murph Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Yep. The Copyright is the trick. That's why a lot of Bands will split writer rights when they are friends, even if one person was the major influence just for "later/just in case". Van Halen has always done that I think, even with different members. In any case it's very cool. I hope a Band named the Shitbirds never record any of my stuff. Just sayin'.......

DanvillRob Posted February 3, 2013 Author Share Posted February 3, 2013 . Welp, you've really made it - songs being covered and the RnR HoF. . Thanks...but if I "made it", how come I get up at 3:30 AM every day for work for the last 45 years? Somehow, I thought it'd be different! (I did, however,end up with the hot girl!)

DanvillRob Posted February 3, 2013 Author Share Posted February 3, 2013 I missed this part.. ? It's really no big deal.... kinda snuck in there through the back door...... One, is a display about San Francisco music.... they displayed a poster of a concert I did with Van Morrison and THEM. Then just recently, they put a book about SF Bay Area Bands of the 60's. My picture is on the cover of the book, (guy on upper right side head in "h" of green "March".) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
