CBG you hit the nail on the head, imo they should do somthing like the following depending on your earning potential as a working dj the price of the licences should be different eg if your only gunna do one gig a month why should you have to pay the same as the dj doing 5 gigs a night fri sat sun every week of the year? so if they are serious about having djs pay for the licences they need to get serious on pricing
i manage a night club you completely miss understood what i was trying to say if a venue doesnt have the required licenses to play music the fine does not transfer in anyway to the dj they are not employees of the venue and as in my example if a venue doesnt have the correct licenses to sell liquor and so on the bartender doesnt receive a fine its the employer eg licensee your spot on with the RSA tho
im selling my SSL to up grade to SL3 so i can get full use outa my new sample player its a little over a year old comes with control vinyl (never used) control cd software cd all RCA cables SSL Sound Card USB cable Very good condition no marks, Never had any trouble with it Never been Droped or Damaged in any way Honestly this DVS system is what gave me the confidence to move from the Bedroom to the Clubs Ill Let it go for $500 on ausdjforums if no ones interested ill throw it on ebay EDIT now on ebay http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=160462113248&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT
it is in no way the responsibility of the dj to ensure they licensed venue they are playing music at has the required license i dont give a shit what you say everything will come back to the licensee its like saying a bartender comes into a venue to work and the cops give a fine for selling alcohol because the venues liquor licence has ran out in a club hotel etc the dj is a middle man
i think having usb option on my cdj is awsome for example for house partys i load my ipods up with a shit load of music i wouldnt waste my time burning to cds eg 80s, pop, rock etc this saves me money on cds and allows me to say yes when the drunk punter comes up and asks for the song no ones heard in a decade
lol bruz if i could make that shit id be makin the cash i just added vocals and swaped the structure of the song so it was more hard hitting but thanks for the vote of confidence.......lol
