Yeah, a few places around here have also stopped doing live music, though one or two still do live music but insist on all original. At this point I could probably do a 3 hour, all-original gig, but I'm sure some would have difficulty with that. (Coralkong and Mrs. Kong witnessed just such an event.)Ain't that the truth. I've lost a half dozen regular gigs in the last 5 years due to clubs either not paying their ASCAP/BMI fees, or just getting sick of the steep fees and canning all their live music.
