Negativland have hundreds of hours of entertaining radio show, in addition to their albums.

Yeah, I figured as much but I don't know jack about laws so I figured you could check the website out and see if it will work.

I found this which may or may not mean anything:

I don't know what that means but it says "noncommercial" so I'm guessing...it won't work?



also what kind of country do you live in where somebody actually goes around and makes sure you have a license to play your music? Pretty sure they won't be busting down your door any time soon if you just play whatever.

Sox:
Those are the chances you take. It doesn't happen everyday, but if you keep it up long enough, it does happen eventually.
Plus, if we decide to chance it and just play anything at all in the shop, then the other staff will pick the songs and frankly, they all have rubbish tastes. This way, I get control.
I absolutely refuse to listen to music chosen by fans of say, Fallout Boy, or people who think that Metallica's version of Whiskey In a Jar is superior to the original.

In the meantime, I am playing various radio podcasts without music.

a pack of wolves:
A little while after the small social centre I volunteer at occasionally opened we got a letter from PRS telling us we had to pay them to use music. If I remember right, this was well before the fire department noticed we were completely not in compliance with fire safety regulations, or the council spotted that we had live music without an entertainment licence.

So yeah, they are surprisingly good at finding out about infringement.
