[net.auto] The "drinking license"

30 years of experience in cabarets every weekend (99.99% as employee
(musician) rather than patron), shows me that your "drinking license"
won't work, despite the appeal of its action on the direct cause.
There is no way that a liquor/beer/wine service in a bar/cabaret can
operate at a profit and check drinking licenses for every customer.
Getting served in even slightly successful bars is hard enough as it
is.  Often it is impossible for the band members to get a drink within
the standard 20 minute break between "sets".
