Deep Purple Fined For Playing Their Own Songs
Back on October 19, 2008 Deep Purple played a concert in Russia and it should have been just another concert. However, they didn’t gain permission from the NGO which is the ‘Russian Authors Society’ who issues licenses to publicly perform songs. Now they are fined for illegally playing their own songs. WTF. So they will probably have to pay royalties . . . TO THEMSELVES! But of course the NGO will be getting their cut. What a bunch of shit!
