i have no problem w/ people enforcing royalties for live music... you wrote the song you should get paid for it. i guess the biggest problem i have is the haphazard way these fees seem to be enforced. now that's only my perception - i don't run a club and only know a handful of people directly involved in that sort of thing. it just seems that if ASCAP would approach non-paying club owners as a potential future customer rather than as a source of a quick, high paying lawsuit... well it might be better for everybody. i've heard that one or two clubs here in indy have been smacked with a lawsuit like this. seems like the response is typically to either close doors or go to an original only format. ------------------ kit malone http://www.kitmalone.com
