Regarding the spontaneious song bit, it would seem to me that a sing-a-round in apub, with people not paying an entrance fee, nor receiving any money for their singing, would not contravene certainly the present system. Am I being naive.

Yes, is the answer, I expect, but if there is no payment involved. What happens then if a club organises for a performer, who performes on his/her own and obviously receives payment, under the present system are they breaking the law, certainly if everyone there joined in the chorus songs, they woiuld seem to be. It seems to me to be a very complicated mess.
