  1. Do you need a LLC/DBA to do your own self publishing? Like for instance, Lion Bold is your very own publishing company did you get a dba/llc first before you registered with bmi and is it really necessary to obtain either befor registering to bmi?

  2. My music was played last year in February on a global scale somewhere live on tv, is it too late to register the royalties? Do you have up to a certain amount of time? I’m completely new to this someone help please ?

  3. What I am trying to figure is how to get registered as a member of a band. We recorded two CDs. They are out there on iTunes, and Spotify and everything. The Bass player got everyone packets to fill out paperwork and register with BMI, but we were all a bunch of idiots, and no one actually ever filled the stuff out except for the Bass player, and the singer (I think), The band is long broken up and the Bass player and the Guitar player have both passed away. But I feel like I really need to actually finish the process of getting myself registered for that work. The band was called Languid, it's on CD Baby, and the two records are 55 clicks and 3 days later. Not to be confused with some more recent band called Languid, out of New York, I think. We were a Saint Louis thing, from 1996 till 2001.
