I don't know if your readers are aware of a proposed new law currently passing through Parliament relating to a new licensing requirement for all venues that have live music - village halls, pubs, school halls, churches etc.
Perhaps your readers - especially musicians, who will all feel the effects of this draconian legislation - would like to study the petition
located on the web at www.musiclovers.ukart.com and register their
opposition. This bill is destined to ruin live music as we know it!
I would encourage all music lovers to spread the word about this web page in order the Government is left in no doubt as to the feeling of the public to this further erosion of their freedom in pursuing legitimate leisure activities and enjoying themselves.
