I wonder when live gigs will restart ?
was really looking forward to seeing TOOL play their new album and of course loads of other rock and metal
But I can't see anything happening for a year , apart from cover bands in pubs

Re: I wonder when live gigs will restart ?
It is a huge worry , more so for smaller venues and new bands which I like to follow , not so the mainstream bands as I'm sure the big bands will survive , and are already secure and wealthy.
I worry that it will adversly effect young peoples decisions to persevere with playing live and and those small indie clubs , we could see a vacuum appear for years to come .

I head some tickets to see Tom Robinson in Brighton but that has now been pushed back to late 2021.
Tom isn’t getting any younger, I was shocked to see he is an oap, so any more delays and it might be a Zimmer frame sponsored gig.

And it's two four six eight, never too late
Me on my my 'zimmer ' trucking on through the night
Three five seven nine, on a little white line

Some A-level students near me are playing an outdoor gig tonight. They're an ABBA tribute band but they're now known as CDDC

Will they be supported by CE/FE?

I am too old for festivals , a one off gig is hard enough

I think small venue gigs will start before the enormodome types

I'd imagine once fans are back in sports stadiums then gigs will be allowed to take place. The Manics gig in December still hasn't been pushed back yet (but I imagine it will be) whilst Clwb have rebooked acts for March onwards. It will be less than a year.

Re: I wonder when live gigs will restart ?
I went to the cinema today. Including me and my son there was 9 people watching the movie.
There was an audience at the snooker over the weekend. There have been crowds allowed at football games in France.
People need to get on with things and use some common sense.
Seated venues can pre book allocated tickets, small enclosed standing only places will be tougher to manage.

I think the entertainment and hospitality sector is fecked for several years , people have got out of the habit and some people are afraid of their own shadow

Those people already existed, if anything having to spend so long away from gigs/clubs etc may encourage people to go out more often

Let’s hope all the oldies stay out of the supermarkets and stick with home deliveries, no more terrible driving en route, quiet roads, no waiting ages at checkout for them to pack their bags....it’s like a dream going out and about in Cardiff still.....

Maybe if more people wore masks in the UK, you wouldn't be third in the world for deaths per capita. Behind Brazil FFS.

Wuhan had a big poolside gig over the weekend. They are taking the piss.

one week they say masks are essential , one week they are a waste of time
Can't speak for England but in my opinion drakefo4d and the Welsh government have handled the virus well
