Thread Name: Killed by the PEL system Part 2
Subject: RE: Killed by the PEL system Part 2
ET, I understand that the publican *has* to say in his operating schedule what entertainment he's putting on and when. I fear that clubs and sessions getting thrown out of pubs, for whatever reason, are going to find it well nigh impossible to find another venue for the simple reason that the landlord of said venue would have to pay to have a new entertainment added to his schedule. And how many are going to be prepared to do that? Added to which, even if he or the club/session was prepared to pay, how long would that take?
This seems to me to be perhaps the greatest long term threat involved in the new regulations.
