As far as I know In the US no band has to tell any venue what songs are
being played or pay a fee for covers(that's why we have so many crappy cover
bands). I know throughout europe(I'm unsure how england does it) that is not
the case(I toured with a crappy death metal band called brodequin for
awhile). Pigface mainly plays in the US so he can pretty much play whatever
he wishes and no one will bat an eye at him.
