Sorry, incorrect, -1000 points.
Fair enough if they targetted those that are commercial/making money, but those that are doing this for non-profit/free/at their own expense, why the fuck should they pay anything? makes it impossible.
Retarded.

Argh! I really hope you do end up recording, because quite honestly, I go out to hear you guys play, because I'm still a fair amount of a n00b regarding major and semi-major artists, so actually being able to have sets from people I know and like [and was there for!] would be spectacular!
Words cannot describe how excited I am for Saturday! This is one of those rare opportunities where I'm actually going to spend time getting ready to go out. Not to say I don't look respectable most of the time [at least every other time except the morning after!]

Come and find me: I'll be wearing a tshirt that says JULESPLEESFAN. Muahahaha. I'm so frickin excited. I just want to sleep all the way through Thursday and Friday =]

Umm. Because APRA actually pays the artists* who's tracks are played a fee. So dance producers might actually get SOME money for their productions.

*as long as the artist is registered with APRA

but since mr not-for-profit can't afford it
the artists dont get money regardless (that's what commercial stations are for if you wanna talk about money.), and (more so) the artists that are struggling for money are gonna lose out on exposure (that could generate interest on the COMMERCIAL stations... hence they're actually losing money. awwwwwwwwwwwwwww!)

Ooooh I love this tune but it's very similar to the ABC Alphabet tune don't you think?

Anyway, I'm waiting for the SVD or Durand remix of 'Twinkle' with anticipation!

yeah i know they are trying to protect artists and give them royalty's, but most artists only get about 20cents per track played...

and for a 6 hour set there are about 60 tracks played, so 60 x 20 cents is 12 bucks... even if the artists got $1 per track played that is still only $60 bucks in royalty's....

i am happy to pay the royalty's but the extra cash just goes to APRA which is really quite silly

in closing they should either pay the artists more or lower the fees..

No shit! I was almost not bothered when I was thinking I wasn't going to get in with my ID, but I'd be devastated if I couldn't go to Interview for some reason...

Hehehe that's coz Interview is waaaay more fun! Everytime you go you meet new people + all the people you've met at the previous Interview are there as well. Go to enough of these parties and you get to know a fair % of the crowd. Then it feels like your own party!!

BROWN ALLEY FTW!!!!!
