    My reward?

     I’m vaccinated.
    I'm not sure GnR in 2021 is a reward...

    (but who knows. Maybe they'll premiere Hard School live and maybe Axl is fit for fight and his vocal chords rested)
    what's Hard School?

    One of the songs from the early CD recordings that were leaked a few byears back, and people later heard being sound checked by the reunited band (sans Axl).

    no. you have been quite negative about what some states are doing and private businesses are doing in the U S., literally laughing at it in the quoted post.

    first or second week of September (depending how the calendar falls) until right at the end of June. I don't think that's all of canada though. I think each province does their own scheduling.

    BC usually goes to middle of the last week of June.

    academic. they said today they hope back to "normal" in September. But our premier also said this morning that 75% vaccine uptake won't be enough to stop a fourth wave, we need over 90%. not a chance that happens. there are literally religious anti-vaxxers in fucking ICU dying of Covid still arguing it doesn't exist (manitoba has it's own little bible belt, just south of Winnipeg)

    you can't make this shit up.

    That doesn’t make any sense, look at the numbers in the USA.  Only about 50% vaccinated and both cases and deaths have been rapidly decimated

    2012: Atlanta
    2013: London ONT / Wrigley Field / Pittsburgh / Buffalo / San Diego / Los Angeles I / Los Angeles II

    2015: New York City
    2016: Ft. Lauderdale / Miami / Jacksonville / Greenville / Hampton / Columbia / Lexington / Philly II / New York City II / Toronto II / Bonnaroo / Telluride / Fenway I / Wrigley I / Wrigley - II / TOTD - Philadelphia, San Francisco
    2017: Ohana Fest (EV)
    2018: Amsterdam I / Amsterdam II / Seattle I / Seattle II / Boston I / Boston II
    2021: Asbury Park / Ohana Encore 1 / Ohana Encore 2

    Sure they have. They’ll probably go back up again in the fall though, as will almost everywhere.

    So are you saying this is more seasonal results for the drops then or do you think the vaccine will wear off by the fall?

    Mostly seasonal, but we all have to be mindful of the fact that only a small number of countries have any reasonable vaccine coverage so we will likely keep getting variants which at some point may not be adequately dealt with by our current vaccines. I don't expect the vaccines to wear off by fall. I do expect that we will be able to produce modified vaccines for variants if we need them, but then we're going 'round the cycle of trying to get everyone vaccinated again.

    ... and on that happy note, had the kids' postponed birthday party. 5 months later...

    I'm basically taking advantage of my new freedoms. Went and visited sister's homes, had them over, going to eat at a restaurant with 5 others soon. I like this easing back into approach. It's not as shocking as how we were all locked down.

    Feel so bad for him but he was only partially vaccinated very recently and the only reason he got one shot was because he was in close contact with someone that had the virus. Very odd to get the shot if you are expected to possibly have it yourself isn't it?
