If you know of gigs lost as a result of the new regime, or if, in a few months time, you feel that the new regime has not delivered the improvement you expected or is unsatisfactory for other reasons, use this website to tell your MP (it identifies them from your postcode): http://www.writetothem.com/

Rather that have the burden of proof being upon musicians - perhaps it may be as well to ask your MP to find out from the Government some actual examples of the explosion in live music as a result of removing the discriminatory two-in-a-bar provision'?
