Anything Goes : Music Rights ? by Midwest Music Mafia

We thought we should put this here - Music Rights ? If we had some people who wanted to do a dance to MJ -Thriller - ( Music from CD ) // If they did it for free ; & there was no charge to see them ; would we have to pay any usage to show this on TV ? If we did this for a charity function - donations ? If we did this with a band doing - Thriller - for a charity function - donations ? Need 2nd and 3rd opinions ??? http://www.myspace.com/midwestmusicanddance - http://community.rock.com/profile/MidwestMusicMafia - EM - MidwestMusicMafia@live.com -
