The 2003 Licensing Act gets clearer
It’s what we’ve all been watchful for given the 2003 Licensing Act came in to force . A transparent system of administration for immaterial song and small gigs . So, here goes:
Exempt: a beer hall compelling a stand-up stand up comic accompanied by a pianist.
Licensable: a beer hall compelling a opening by a pianist/singer upheld by a stand-up comedian.
Exempt: beer hall with pianist or alternative singular instrument personification credentials music.
Licensable: beer hall promotes a sing-along eventuality with pianist.
Exempt: tune singers outward a shop.
Licensable: selling centre organises performances of carols in a selling mall.
Simple, eh.
