Speaking from down here Greg, and from what I understand (and remember as it was a couple of years ago)from reading ASCAP condidtions while helping an Ohio Collab get signed up, up there your pros have full and associate members. The Full members have at least one song out on a public domain via live or commercial recording.
The associates do not.
APRA did away with associates years ago and you have to have at least one out there to get a look in at all.
I have heard enough of yours to know you have stuff that could quite easily be done live and surely there is a venue at hand you can get up and sing it so you can fill in the form and get them to sign where it asks for venue confeirmation for that first song.
Can't recall,what the differance twix full and associate is. Probably voting o issues etc.
Read your PRO conditions Greg. Am sure it will be in there.
