Question about performance
I am trying to figure out the whole deal with performance rights, etc. and am frustrated after reading through what I can find on the web. All I want to do is sing and play some songs live at local coffee houses, events, etc. Do I need to worry about this? Do I need to get some sort of permissions? What do others do? You can PM me or post here, whatever you prefer. Thanks in advance for any guidance or tips.

Short answer is no, you don't need to worry about it - the venue does - however some venues will specify "no covers" if they don't want to pay licensing fees to ASCAP/BMI/etc.

As stated - the venue pays a blanket license to ASCAP/BMI/SESAC to cover performance rights/royalties. You are in the clear.
