I am thinking of starting an on-line children’s boutique and would like to sell toddler shirts with “rock” related transfers on them. Do I need permission from the bands or can I go ahead and use them for resale?

Tonya: If you are going to purchase pictures of bands that are already on a commercial transfer medium, then no fees are due. However, if you are going to copy pictures, found on the Internet, and use them, then you are subject to all sorts of legal problems and hassles. Make sure that any transfers you buy, have been licensed by the Band for that type of end use.
Good Luck, Andy
