In Chicago pop music and DJs performances have been recognized as an art form. This allows a reduction in taxes which amounts to more than $ 200,000. Judge Anita Richardson had established that these musical forms could no longer be exempt from the tax on entertainment.
Now, however, the decision was overturned. " By bringing together public officials and music industry representatives, we were able to arrive at language that all parties agree recognises the diverse and robust nature of live music while providing the county with the ability to collect those taxes that are legitimately owed to it», explained John Fritchey, representative of one of the districts of Cook County, where Chicago is located.
A similar decision was made in Berlin regarding techno music venue Berghain.
