Survivor ‘outraged’ Eye of the Tiger was played at Kim Davis rally, may sue
Survivor guitarist Frankie Sullivan is ‘outraged’ his song Eye of the Tiger was played at a rally for Kim Davis and has said he may sue.
The Kentucky clerk was released Tuesday (8 September) after spending five nights in jail for refusing to issue gay marriage licenses, despite a Supreme Court ruling against her.
A sobbing Davis, arm-in-arm with Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee, walked onstage to address the thousands of supporters who gathered outside Carter County Detention Center in Grayson – while Eye of the Tiger roared through loud speakers.
Survivor’s representative told TMZ they are ‘determined to protect the integrity of their music’ and were considering legal action.
‘NO! We did not grant Kim Davis any rights to use “My Tune -The Eye Of The Tiger.” I would not grant her the rights…’ Sullivan wrote on the band’s official Facebook page.
‘I would not grant her the rights to use Charmin!’
He added: ‘See Ya really SoooooooonnnnnnN!!!!!!’
NO! We did not grant Kim Davis any rights to use “My Tune -The Eye Of The Tiger.” I would not grant her the rights…
