(Photo by Mark Von Holden/Invision/AP, File)From classic American rockers to British artists to the estates of late legends, here's a look at some of the musicians who have objected to Donald Trump using their songs at campaign events. JOHN FOGERTY, PHIL COLLINS, BRUCE SPRINGSTEENSome classic rockers say not only do they oppose Trump using their music, the choice of songs is ironic or downright wrong. Eddy Grant sued Trump in September over the use of his 1980s hit “Electric Avenue” in a Trump campaign animated video that mocked his opponent Joe Biden.

Stop the music! Chorus of artists tell Trump to tune it down

Young, Fogerty and Collins are among several musicians who are objecting to their songs being used at President Donald Trump's campaign rallies. The Trump campaign can hardly play a song without the artist denouncing its use and sending a cease-and-desist letter. “I did not write it for that.”That feeling that they've been drafted onto Team Trump clearly fuels many artists' anger. “It’s not a great look for the artists, if their music is aligned with something seen as unsafe,” Kaufman said. “Courts have recognized that that could be an implied endorsement.”The Trump campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Woodstock 50 festival canceled

CNN video(CNN) - The Woodstock 50 festival, which in its planning stages has been plagued by a series of misfortunes and obstacles, will not go on as planned. In April, a marketing firm that was financing the festival opted to pull out, with executives telling festival organizers that they were canceling the event. But organizers, including promoter Lang, one of the creators of the original festival in 1969, said it wasn't up to the firm to cancel the festival, and they trudged on. Last month, festival officials announced that the scheduled venue for Woodstock 50, Watkins Glen International, had pulled out. Artists who performed at the original Woodstock, like Santana and David Crosby, were also set to perform.

Singer John Fogerty speaks during the announcement event for the Woodstock 50th anniversary concert in New York, March 19, 2019. Lang is asking Woodstock 50 artists who were already paid to donate 10% of their earnings to HeadCount, a nonprofit group that registers voters at music events, or to another organization.

"Most booking contracts are site specific, so with the move to Maryland I think in all probability these artists have easy-outs. And looking at the debacle that this festival has been, I would really be surprised if a lot these artists, if not all of them, didn't start exercising those outs," said Werde, who is also the director of the Bandier program for recorded and entertainment industries at the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications at Syracuse University.
