Re: 80's anyone?

hey swomprabbit,
In regard to this music licensing and mechanical stuff that you are 
talking about.  I dont't know where you are getting your infomation 
but I dont sell cover tunes to anybody nor am I in any business that 
does that sort of thing..Where did you come up with this idea?..

California. I am into a different musical era myself. Anyway, I was 
curious based on my own experiences with licensing - for the cover 
material you are selling and distributing to other bands do you 
secure a Mechanical License or a Digital License? Sometimes that 
licensing stuff can get a little confusing based on how the covered 
songs are being used and distributed as you know.

with foil is a technique sometimes used as way of circumventing the 
purpose of the fuses. Either someone was too lazy to go out and 
purchase new fuses to replace the blown ones or there is something 
possibly wrong with the equipment causing the fuses to blow. A fuse 
wrapped in foil changes a circuit from a "fuse protected" circuit to 
a "hard-wired" circuit. I would strongly suggest replacing the foil-
wrapped fuses with the proper size and type fuses. Disregarding the 
purpose and function of the fuses could lead to serious equipment 
damage or something worse.
