it to me a personal concern that as many involved in this petition that GEMA's approach deprives small bands or amateur musicians who perform live small basis organize their purpose of existence: they makes small live performances impossible. Please make since with:

Here is the link to the petition:

https: / / epetitionen.bundestag.de / index.php action = petition, is petition = 4517

Registration; sa = details? safe and can be accomplished in 2 minutes Beitrag. The privacy statement is in order and consent it then only needs a single click. This is a VERY VERY important petition that ALL concerns, making music, listening to music, love going to concerts or

general face a major culture has a defective maladministration in our country

want: the distribution of royalties to GEMA.

The issue will only come on the agenda of our Parliament, if
collected 50 000 signatures by July 17.
why I ask all of you that call forwarding to your friends and
would particularly musicians, blogger and journalists to the notice of petition and call to ask to attend. In particular, it is

this is the intention of the GEMA

increase the fees for live music by 600% (!!). This will harm not only the
organizers, some will make it impossible, especially small concerts

to increase prices for events, it is not

to the benefit of musicians (as one might expect it).
through a very complex distribution plan, which among other things
radio airplay (it will be Germany-wide, only 25 (!) Evaluated Channel
), chart positions (the creation of the
evaluation
next chart is very questionable), the distinction between serious and
U Music (E-called serious music, primarily classical, light music
U) contains are not occupied by the GEMA

funds allocated directly to the performing artists, but
land only in a "big pot." Since almost all independent artists
neither can Airplay, TV shows, or chart positions, etc. refer
, the revenue will come mainly Major Label Artists, Lady Gaga,
Musikantenstadl and Co. for the best. It sounds corny, but
Is this the reality! Small and medium-sized
artists (ie the largest part) will benefit from the increase in fees in the GEMA
division hardly live music! In the three-digit euro range
Fees received here can quickly shrink to a cents amount
.

Please take the time! "Thank

Rudi
