That's bizarre. I have no idea what an establishment needs to have licensed to have live bands, and why is it the establishment and not the band?

Does the establishment need to review a potential entertainers song list to ensure they have received separate licensing for each of them?? Does the entertainer have to review the establishment's approved list and choose only songs from that?

WTF? I suppose the DJ's are next. Will it be soon illegal to play music out loud without giving ASCAP it's share? Can I let my friend listen to my record without penalty, or will he need to buy his own?
...so ever since then, I always hang on to the buckle.
