The reason that ASCP & BMI feel that barber shops, coffee houses and mom and pop shops should pay for customers to listen to background music is for the...
Interesting question about that Instrument. I once acquired one very much like it, I think, which someone rescued from a gabage dump and sent my way, back in...
The folk-oriented folks seem to use the term "song circle". Is this essentially the same as a same, except there is no emphasis on instrumentation? \ ...

Gene, Great point. I seriously doubt having the song registered would have made any difference at all. What happens is that in addition to BMI and ASCAP..etc....
Of course. It's always the little guy trying to make a buck that has the hardest time.. Hey, maybe you should sell your medicine for free just because you love...

Matt, I was talking about what happened to my band in the sixties. We had a big regional hit and never got a dime. We were told the money went to distribution...
Thr restaurateur buys the food tax-exempt, and records are kept by his wholesale suppliers of his "tax number." Most food in Washington is tax exempt at the...
You don't pay a "sales" tax on supplies for a business. Washington doesn't really have a "sales" tax, it is a USE tax. If you use it, you pay the tax. "Value...
