Reaction
to the ordinance:
"...
will pretty much drop a bomb on Chicago's independent
music community, if not nuke it entirely."
- Jim DeRogatis, Chicago Sun-Times
"unconstitutional."
Henry
H. Perritt, Jr.,
Former Dean & PRdfessor of Law,
Chicago-Kent College of Law
"...
a threat to the creative communities throughout
the country and sets a very dangerous precident
- as one city goes, so goes another. Rinse and
repeat."
- TheRecordIndustry.com
"The
ordinance will reduce the amount of music in
Chicago, make events more expensive for consumers,
dampen the large and growing economic engine
that is Chicago music, and create a much less
supportive business climate for Chicago's small
music business community."
- The Chicago Music Commission
