Music venues in serious trouble.

Back again!

In lockdown, it was understood that everything came to a standstill, including me playing anything. . . . well almost, I just dont seem to have the heart/feel the vibe.
Now things are opening up, with only localised lockdown, it's a shakey start for many shops, pubs, eateries etc but for specialised music venues it is a non starter.  
I can think of a bucket load of places, with some very happy memories, that are small and intimate and are brilliant places to see live music but in my mind's eye, I can't see a lot of them being around in the future. 

Where does that leave the growth of new bands and music and how will people who are hungry for that live experience get their fix? At this stage, I have no idea.
Perhaps up and coming bands will break out on line but standing shoulder to shoulder, screaming out the lyrics and being at one with the whole experience, that is a long way off! 

It really is a case of Watch this space.

I have my fingers and toes crossed that some will make it through to the other side.

Stay safe, wash those hands and hang on to some hope.

All the best.

Cheers. : )
