This can't go ON!
Im hearing talks that concerts are the last thing to come back. Maybe as late as Winter 2022? Is now the time to start focusing on streaming shows? I would certainly entertain the idea of "subscribing" to a pay per view event. Sure the boys would feel strange playing hard to a empty room but if this crisis is going to go on for sometime maybe this is a way we can still feel somewhat normal?

Ugh! I understand your desire, but I feel that live music is a communal give and take experience. We feed on the energy and emotion of the band/artist and they feed on our energy. An acoustic set would be fine, but a streaming, full-on concert with no audience? A definite no for me."What the CANUCK happened?!? - Esquimalt Barber Shop0

It's April 15th. The situation just developed in front of our eyes. In the most immediate sane terms, everything in the near term has to be extremely cautious. But people trying to fingerprint the when and should of everything is totally arbitrary and designed to illicit awe and can be entirely wrong in their ridiculous effort to be "first" on a hot take.

Yes there is a likely hood that we have to wait for a magical vaccine to be produced and for us to be able to to go back to concerts but so many things can change for better or worse in those 12-18 months that they are estimating for us to need to produce one.0 -

The most likely doomsday scenario outcome for a more protracted period is less nothing happening until end of 2022, but rather the 95% shut down of international borders across the world. In that anything other than goods for consumption and production will not travel internationally for perhaps a year or two.
Countries, even as vast and wide spread as the US and Canada can do effective contact tracing, mitigation and containment within their own borders, but the airports are what caused this mass spreading. Total and utter carelessness and fecklessness in screening.
And before everyone says, ha they failed it this the first time, this was a worldwide failure and a very shitty job by an albiet important organization in the World Health Organization. And there was no apparatus in place to more effectively attack this anywhere. That is already being addressed by organizations that are better at planning, like Google and Apple. They just are better and more invested in getting it right.

I’m ok with not attending any major events again even if it means I have seen my last concerts, I’m ok with just listening to music by myself I’ll have to really really think hard about attending the rescheduled shows...jesus greets me looks just like me ....0

I have no desire to go to a concert any time soon unless they start playing Speedways and i can sit on the bleachers ten feet from anyone else.0

Maybe... the bright side will be that once we are truly though all of this, the band will have new found appreciation for touring and will do a mega tour to make up for lost time.

I could see PJ doing a tour thats big for PJ. Instead of maybe 30 shows, they do 40 to 50 in a single year?0 -

This is the main thing I am struggling with. I am NOT OK with having seen my last concert or attended my last baseball game with my son. Live events and travel for work and pleasure are very important to me. It will take me a long time and a lot of grief to come to this new normal if that's the case. I thrive on in-person, human contact, the last month has already been rough, don't want to live the rest of my life this way.There's no need to say goodbye0 -
there's so much i wish i could say on this topic but the real question is why this is going on at all. seriously! U.S. official figures were that from jan 1st - march 20th over 110,000 people died due to regular/seasonal flu, i.e. 1375 per day on average. did they shut down the world and destroy the world economy and peoples lives. the answer is no! i'm not saying people aren't dying, they are i'm just saying that the whole situation has been blown out of all proportion. the media have been instrumental in instilling fear into everybody, millions die every year from malnutrition, starvation or unclean water and no-one cares. hell, a million people every year commit suicide, so a bit of perspective0

This virus is forever part of the ecosystem. You are not going to eradicate it, just weaken it and substantially lessen its impact. People will be dying of covid-19 forever, the same way people die from various strains of influenza every year. The death rate from influenza simply is acceptable because it is spread over longer time periods during each season because people built up immunity to the various strains.His eminence has yet to show.
