ProtoView</i> <p> <b>From the Author: </b> Taking care of a band's business may seem to lack the same excitement as knocking out a third encore for rabid fans. But band business doesn't have to be boring, and it often involves some of the same types of creativity as used in songwriting and arranging. This book will help musicians make smart decisions and avoid the many pitfalls that often trap bands and their members. During its two decades and ten editions, <i>Music Law</i> has evolved to not only cover band partnership agreements, management agreements, and copyright, trademark, and contract info, but also to include music artwork; taxes and financial management; licensing music for film, TV, and advertising; and new revenue models from music income.<br>
