Maybe you're "special" because you're close enough to ASCAP's
offices
that some employee saw a notice for your dance.
If you have public performances of recorded music in copyright, then you owe.
If you have purely live music of traditional tunes (out of copyright)
then you're in the clear.
If you have live bands playing stuff still in copyright, then someone
owes but I'm not sure if that's you or the band, and I'm not sure if
ASCAP is the one to collect.

Fellow organizers,
I'm writing as a board member of the Santa Barbara Country Dance Society.
Our Treasurer received a formal letter from ASCAP, trolling (?) for money.
The subject ASCAP uses is "First Offer."
Has anyone else received this and how did you deal with it? And if no one
else has, why are we so special?
