There is no exemption for musicians. Say your drummer is sick and your band is performing. You'll need to hire that drummer as an employee for the 2hour gig. Or said drummer will need to pay Cali $800/yr to form an LLC and perform contract work.
Music venue? Same thing. Either hire the performers as employees or the band needs to form an LLC and pay cali $800/yr.
- rchaud 7y agoWouldn't a drummer just be paid cash for a one-off 2-hour gig? The music industry isn't exactly renowned for ethical accounting and there is no union for session drummers that would enforce the rule you're describing.
- mrkstu 7y agoThen the venue is opening itself to legal liability when any of the past drummers decide to sue.
- gamblor956 7y agoIf you can't afford $800/year, you don't have a business. You have a hobby.
- mlindner 7y agoGreat, you now just cut the bottom rungs off the ladder of how people turn their hobby into a business. The higher the start up cost the less likely they exist in the first place. This is about harming the poor in favor of the rich and nothing else. "Let them eat Cake" ring any bells?
