In the past few years I have been going to a lot of concerts–usually seeing over 100 bands in a year. Obviously this year was very different. But I did manage to sneak in eleven shows.
I still regret skipping The Districts on March 9. The Virus was just heading into town and I didn’t want to risk it. It was a smart choice, but given what happened and how little exposure there was in early March, I wish I had gone ahead and risked it.
Many of the shows that had been (re)scheduled in 2021 have already been cancelled. I assume there’s no chance of any shows before summer. but with the virus on the horizon, I can keep my fingers crossed.
