According to the Alcoholic Beverage Control Board, the music hangout was being fined specifically for violating the settlement agreement that states: "The doors and windows of the establishment will remain closed from 12:30 a.m. until closing when live music is being played".

According to the report, an Alcohol Beverage Regulation Administration (ABRA) inspector personally observed a live band playing directly in front of one of the establishment's ground floor windows between 1:30 and 1:33 am on June 22, 2014.

The band and the drummer are not identified in the report.

Madam's Morgan owner Bill Duggan, who is clearly not happy, says the drummer opened a window to lessen his emission impact:

"The drummer opened the window to let [a] fart out. He cracked it open for five minutes, then the inspector showed up. Twenty fucking years with not one violation and this is what they came up with. People get stabbed and shot in these other establishments. In ours, someone farts and cracks a window and they spend a year on it."
