Drop requirement for live music gig? (7)
I believe the answer is:
abandon
'drop' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'requirement for live music gig?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'music' could be 'do' (as in do-re-mi) and 'do' is found within the answer.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).
(Other definitions for abandon that I've seen before include "Permanently desert" , "Forsake, leave behind" , "Leave behind - licentiousness" , "Kick" , "Desert, strand" .)
