Yeah it is, but there aren't a lot of bars without music licenses. I take it they've actually told you they haven't got a music licence?
I think I'm right in saying you can DJ (play recorded music, in legal terms) under the same licence that allows you to have the radio or a CD on in the background. So if you've ever heard any music in there, then they've probably got a sufficient licence. But don't quote me on that.
If it was just a member of bar staff that said they don't want one, remember they probably don't know what they're talking about so question it with the manager.
The bottom half of this is for one-off events:

It does mention a minimum annual royalty - I'm not sure exactly how that works, so phone them for more info. Don't bother emailing them cos they take months to reply. |
