THURSDAY 24 NOVEMBER 05 LICENSING ACT (2003) here is a sketch of the licensing situation as far as we understand it. We won't know what it means in practice until after the 24th Nov, but meanwhile from that date we cannot book anything in that is on the list of proscribed activities. The Foundry is NOT losing our public performance / entertainment license - under the current law we never had one and never needed one so long as we complied with (a) no more than two performers, (b) no dancing (c) free entry - which pretty much fitted with what we wanted to do anyway. The LAW is changing from 24 November, and the new Licensing Act gives the local authority (in our case Hackney Council) much more power over us and does not make any allowance at all for unregulated activities. This new law (the "Licensing Act 2003", more commonly and misleadingly referred to as the 24-hour drinking law) applies from 24 November. It replaces a number of different licenses, including the Alcohol License (which we have) and the Entertainment License (which we do not have) with a single 'flexible' Premises License. After that date we can continue with our existing LICENSED activities - i.e. selling alcohol until 11PM - but NOTHING from the following list can be done without additional permissions which we do not have and are unable to obtain (we have tried). - recorded music - live music (including karaoke) - performance of a play - showing of a film - dance - indoor sports - provision of facilities for recorded and live music That last point means that our piano, decks and PA system all become illegal objects after 24 November. It is not clear whether any form of background music will be legal without a license, and even a juke box is not necessarily going to be allowed. Poetry and art are not on the list (yet) so we can carry on with those. .. We wonder how many other small-scale venues will be in the same situation... if anyone has any more information please write to us. Text of the licensing act http://www.opsi.gov.uk/acts/acts2003/20030017.htm The bit about "Regulated Entertainment" http://www.opsi.gov.uk/acts/acts2003/30017--k.htm#sch1 Wikepedia article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Licensing_Act_2003 More information and advisory notes from the Department of Culture, Media and Sport... Here's a choice quote from the DCMS website... "The 'two in a bar' rule is being discontinued. This is a disapplication under current licensing law of the need for a public entertainment licence in certain situations, such as two performers singing or, playing music, at a premises where a justices' licence is in force. The Government believes this rule in practice restricts what entertainment will be provided, creates disincentives to the presentation of more diverse musical acts and fails to protect local residents from noise nuisance. The new regime will allow musicians and other entertainers to flourish whilst providing protection against unnecessary disturbance." It's in the "regulated entertainment" section... http://www.culture.gov.uk/alcohol_and_entertainment/licensing_act_2003/regulated_entertainment.htm

TUESDAY 29 NOVEMBER 05 open keyboard PIANO NIGHT incidental music by unknown players new art on the bar wall RALPH HOCKLEY Meaning, please? This exhibition is an exploration of the readers' sense and nonsense. You see a photo, it 'appears' portentous, to represent Something of Reality, but does it really - or is it all bollocks and pig's bathwater? I've gathered a series of photos that I hope will make you think about the true significance of the symbolism used and what makes an image (or indeed anything) break the limitations of the media and to resonate with you.
