Age requirements to perform at a bar
My band and I have been playing every Monday night at a local bar, untill recently without problems. I, and my band mates are under 21 and we are curious as to whether you must be 21 to perform at a bar assuming we consume no alcohol, and are not involved with the sale, or distribution?

Re: Age requirements to perform at a bar
The problem is not your performance but your presence. No one is supposed to be in the bar who is under 21. Your performing or not performing is irrelevant.
