I totally agree with Shambles on this. Assuming the Government remains indifferent to the likely chaos of this act coming into force I still think getting well known musicians on board to press for the urgent review, is the best application of pressure - otherwise Ministers will remain deaf.   Has anyone out there every received a reply recently to anything sent to DCMS or live music forum?   I have not but maybe they have set up their e-mail to auto delete anything I send. Feels like that. Have written to MP instead but he is conservative (albiet David Davis)
