performing when underage [USA]
View this Thread in Original format

I'm trying to figure out what it is I have to do to get legal (if needed) permission to play at a club here in LA that is 21 and up. I'm underage (18) and my understanding is I need something. I've called the club and they were no help at all. I've talked to the person who would be booking me and they weren't sure, they just know I need something. So if anyone could point me in the right direction or clear this up for me I would really, really appreciate it.

i honestly dont think you DO need permission...

18 yr olds are allowed to be in a drinking environment

Here nobody really cared, i was playing out when i was 17 (granted the drinking age here is only 18) but the cops rarley come into clubs here

If it's for a job here in California, contact ABC. They will tell you what you need to do.

Thanks, I sent the LA office an E-Mail. Hopefully they'll know what's up.

I've spun at various places, including one of the biggest clubs here underage. :)

They either don't know..or don't care.

I was thinking about the same question but im from Victoria in Australia. If your not aloud is it realy going to stop you? I guess I would want to know if I can but then again if I found out by law I could not I would act as if I do not know.
