GEMA's social media game is certainly top. Nice to see the money being put to good use.

If all seats are filled,

Sure. Everyone's Taylor Swift. Let's just assume that.

The actual truth is that if you do not play GEMA music, you have to provide evidence of that to GEMA. Young musicians who foolishly reason that they don't have anything to do with GEMA will be dragged through court.

sigh If more than 7 seats out of 100 are filled, you will make a profit. Happier?

I'm not going to comment on your second paragraph, since it doesn't contradict what I wrote. And if I were a GEMA shill, I probably wouldn't provide links for my claims, but you do you.
