No, you’re not correct. Cover bands don’t need to ask permission. The venues they play at should be writing down the songs they’re playing and submitting them to PROs, but the bands don’t need to do anything.
- cj 4y agoWhether it's the band or the venue paying, someone is paying (which is the point).
- williamcotton 4y agoYeah, but only for the songs covered, not any originals that the cover band did in the style of anyone else. Which is the point.
- nailer 4y ago> originals that the cover band did in the style of anyone else Interesting. I guess you consider the use of Eminem’s voice to be an ‘in the style of’. I think, being trained on Eminem songs, it’s more like a sample.
