We had a standing rule that if a hired band played Ipanema, we reduced their pay by $50, and if they played the Macarena, we shut off the PA. We never had to enforce the rule after pre gig discussions.Brazilian singer (spoke English too) Astrud Gilberto who sang "The Girl From Ipanema"~ 83
Absolutely. They're hired to do the gig/can we charge them a fee for "we are family" and "mony mony"?
But what if they played Chupacabra? They get a bonus?We had a standing rule that if a hired band played Ipanema, we reduced their pay by $50, and if they played the Macarena, we shut off the PA. We never had to enforce the rule after pre gig discussions.

he spycraft may have been straight out of a Russian playbook, but the game first began with a stroke of pure luck on the part of US-based Soviet spooks.
Unexpectedly, in 1979, a former Chicago cop -- a devout and conservative family man -- walked into a Soviet business in New York that was famously a front for Cold War intelligence operatives. Robert Hanssen, who’d jumped from the Windy City police force to the FBI just three years earlier, offered to hand over top-secret details to the GRU, the Soviet military intelligence organization.
For money.
His information was good -- so good that it would eventually lead to the executions of at least three US assets. It cemented a ruthlessly efficient, 22-year relationship between Hanssen and his handlers, “possibly the worst intelligence disaster in US history,” according to the commission later established to investigate it.
At the centre of the shocking betrayal was a man who seemed woven from the straight-laced fabric of counterintelligence backroomers, a man who rubbed colleagues the wrong way but seemed but seemed wholly devoted to the job and to his country. Hanssen lived in suburban Virginia with his wife and six children, socializing with the same best friend from high school, unfailingly attending Mass and even attempting to recruit others to join him in Opus Dei, an organization within the Catholic Church known for its airs of ultra-devotion and mystery.

That mystery, however, would pale in comparison to the furtive and deadly activities into which Hanssen plunged himself. He was finally found out in 2001, arrested in one of the suburban parks he’d so innocuously used as a drop location -- his law enforcement legacy forever in tatters, his family and friends horrified. Instead of enjoying retirement in picturesque Virginia, Hanssen was relegated to the Supermax in Florence, Colorado, locked away with the most dangerous and infamous of American criminals.
There, on Monday, he was found dead in his cell, an inglorious end to an ignominious life.
But Hanssen’s legacy of treason remains nearly unrivaled almost a quarter-century after his arrest.
