does anyone know if my band needs a license to play covers at a wedding?

[Sean Williams]

My band recently started getting asked to play weddings and as much as i don't want to the $ will keep me from getting a day job. Does anyone know if my band starts playing these weddings will we need a license or some sort of a DJ license or pay royalties to someone to play live cover songs? If anyone knows about this or has been in this situation before let me know thanks.

I don't think the wedding singer had a license and he looks pretty happy here:

So I guess you're pretty safe, unless bono finRAB out and hunts you down for perverting peace throughout the grassy groves.

I think Drew Barrymore is quite good looking in that movie. :
