Band wants Huckabee to stop using song

BOSTON, Feb. 15 (UPI) -- Boston's Tom Scholz has sent Republican presidential hopeful Mike Huckabee a letter asking him to stop using one of his band's songs on the campaign trail.

Huckabee, a former Arkansas govenor, has been using Boston's song "More Than a Feeling" at campaign appearances and rallies and Scholz would like him to stop, the Boston Globe reported Friday.

"Boston has never endorsed a political candidate, and with all due respect, would not start by endorsing a candidate who is the polar opposite of most everything Boston stands for," Scholz said in his letter.

Perhaps trying to soften the blow, Scholz added, "Although I'm impressed you learned my bass guitar part on 'More Than a Feeling,' I am a (Barack) Obama supporter."

The Globe said it could not reach the Huckabee campaign to get their reaction to Scholz's request.

Add another one to "Celebrity Chuckleheads".  :whatever:
