Thread Name: Getting paid to sing in Retirement Cent.
Subject: RE: Getting paid to sing in Retirement Cent.
Interesting thread... it brings up a question that will mark me as a tryo... what about copyrighted material? All the "oldies" and "AOR" stuff referred to is certainly 99.9 % under copyright.
My understanding, right or wrong, is that normally a venue organizer (festival, club, etc) is responsible for paying royalties via their membership using arcane ASCAP formulae. But I wouldn't think that nursing centers are set up to do this.
What am I missing? Set the noob straight, please.
Thanks
