New laws to see clubs cut back on-everything

The Copyright Tribunal has decided that the music license fee payable to the PPCA [Phonographic Performance Company of Australia] be increased by a staggering 1500 per cent.

Cover charge is also likely to increase in order for nightclubs to make a considerable profit. You'd better start taking those crochet lessons-
