Re: Menu Music

i personally wouldn't..if i'm making a menu for a live show & want to use an audio loop, i usually use a sample from the show's audio

not true, money has nothing to do with the law...whether or not there's profiting involved, it is still illegal to use a copyrighted work without express permission...in this case, even if Buckethead told you outside the show he didnt care if you used one of his official tracks, it'd still be copyright infringement...you must obtain a license thru his publishing company &/or performance rights organization [either BMI, ASCAP, or SESAC]
