JohnRogers Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 Just thought about this and it is not RUSH specific, how do tribute bands make money with out getting afoul of the law? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PW_Guitarist Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 I'm not sure how it works in the US but I believe it is a system similar to Canada. You don't need Rush's permission to play their songs anymore than a radio station does. Tariffs are established by whatever royalty governing body there is (SOCAN in Canada, ASCAP in US) and a percentage of revenue is paid and re-distributed to the original musicians via SOCAN or ASCAP. Bands are paid by the venue for their services and venues are supposed to pay 3% of what they pay the musicians to SOCAN (that's the tariff for live performance in Canada). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
