Interviewing him from 20ft away and with a mask in his hand 😆Live music is screwed! Only outdoor venues will survive.
Miss concerts? Get vaccinated.
Miss theatres? Get vaccinated.
Miss County Fairs? Get vaccinated.
Miss kids going to school? Get vaccinated.
Miss visiting grandma? Get vaccinated.

I hate how anti vaxxers and anti maskers actually want these venues to go bankrupt.
I need Broadway!!!!!! 😩ðŸ˜ÂÂðŸ˜ÂÂASAP
America deserved this. This is a place where they Sell R. Kelly, Cop Killers, and even Gang Murders like 2pac. Who feels sorry for Britney ? Gimmie a break !!!! visit thedreamlandadventures.com we need your support they don't! !!!!!! GREED !!! O
👇ABC news @Devin Dwyer very good interview and last question. He answered that that was a very profound question and said that it will be a very long and strange road to what that looks like. Amazing exchange. That was everything how I get encapsulated in a simple great conversation. Thank you for this ðŸ™ÂÂ
“….will it Ever be back like it was, you think.?†👀ðŸ˜â€Â
My man. “Ever.?†Lol. Of Course it will brother. Nice outfit and Great interview btw, ok but Yes! For God’s sakes Yes it will be back at some point. Man just think of that question.
[E.V.E.R.]
Even if this an extinction-level-event (which I strongly doubt it is) but let’s play total Devils Advocate here ok. Let’s just say we become absolute Dinosaurs. Mere human relics of what once was. Precious Mother Earth and all her resiliency. “Will it Ever get back to what it was.?†Now that I have typed this thought out….ðŸ’ÂÂðŸ¤â€Âyour right. If ‘new’ humans take over, (perhaps the new integrated A.I. hybrid forms or whatever) or new species entirely, then yes, perhaps there will be a new form of “concert†or “live show performances†or new “movie theater†completely unknown to our comprehension as it stands. You know.? Perhaps we just become fossils in the sand for our future ascendency beings to discover; and this is it. 😶. Wow. Eh’ S’ sad when you jot it out on paper…..But this isn’t paper great journalism guy-and so perhaps the transition is already beginning to take place. I see now why this question was so valid. I laughed hard out loud by myself when I first heard this question about “Ever†asked, but after giving it some true through and through thought, I see now why this question is so valid. I never realized myself that I felt this deep on the subject. Let us hope and pray it does Not go this far. ðŸ™ÂÂâ¤ï¸ÂÂ
Live music still exists …. in casinos.

After 40 years, Skippers Smokehouse is closed.
Receiving the W,C. Handy award for The Best Blues Club in the USA in 2000, Skippers was opened in 1980 by Tom, Vinca and Andy, college buddies at University of Tampa.
Andy was the first to go. Reports vary, the most common that he was drinking up the profits.
Vince retired after 30 years. He and his wife Bridget do a lot of traveling now.
Tom wasn’t looking to close. But with no way to keep the doors open, he decided to buy a place in Key West and spend his days fishing.:)
It’s a tragedy, to be sure. But after 40 years, and under the circumstances, can you blame Tom?:)
Jesus loves and cares about you so much so repent so that we all make it to heaven.
What’s the use of having everything you want if you’re still going to burn in hell forever?
Like so more people can see this.
Welcome to the next generation there will be change day by day
It’s people’s ignorance not Covid
😘💓ðŸ˜ÂÂðŸ™ÂÂ🇧🇪ðŸÂ»
I want to go to a concert so bad
Nothing goes back to the way it used to be. Something will change.
I lost my job during the pandemic.
I created my channel believing for myself, you and the rest of the world 🌎 ðŸŒÂÂ
It’s not covid19–it’s TYRANNICAL DEMOCRATS AND CHINA
How about the probably 75-100,000 unemployed career theater/stage technicians? 17+ years in the industry (2000+ hours on a spotlight) and a family to support?
Having a mask on during a concert would not be fun at all. Count me out till this stops. No money from me.
