well, I wasn't speaking in an absolute sense... very little can be stated absolutely.

But my comment was in response to what sounded to me like an accusation against the musicians themselves for playing other peoples' music..

Quote:
It amazes me when I see folks disregard them...unlicensed use. You know them. Some make livings off "Tribute" gigs.
"Oh, Paul Simon doesn't care if we play his songs...he'd say he has enough money..."
Uh, no, he DOES care.



and my point was that its not normally their place to pay the fee. If anybody pays the fee, its generally the host.
