What were the fees like for Live/Karaoke? (Like I said - it's been well over a decade since I've been involved in this kind of stuff)

There are two big copyright owners, each wanted about 500 bucks per year for 1 band a month and no karakoe (for a bar that had 60 seats or less). That works out to paying an extra 90 bucks per band. Now a little bar loses money on bands to start with so and extra 100 a month to a bunch of blood sucking lawyer is not something we are going to too. Screw it, the juke box makes money, bands don't. I was a easy decision.

I think club owners have to pay ASCAP and BMI, and beyond that, I never heard of anyone paying anything to anybody.
