My band has been in existence for over 15 years. I hope we can survive a few months of downtime. Blue

That's another concern many of us should have. Regardless of when the gigs come back. Can your band survive this down time? Blue

Thanks Pete. Regardless of what I'm doing or where I go, I never leave my small condo without wearing a mask and gloves. Daryl

This is a time where most of you guys will have a little extra time for practicing. Blue

Hi Pete, Good to hear from you. Stay safe. Blue

I can't put into words how much I miss playing with my band. For those who follow my threads know where I stand on money. At this point if it's safe I'll play free of charge. Blue

The grounds and stages have undergone numerous upgrades and several headliner stages have been added since 2000 including 2 state of the art amphitheaters. Cool that you've visited us. Blue

Agreed They have a pretty big boost on unemployment compensation right now. Some will be making less money when they return to work. They also gave everyone making under 99k $1,200.00 and $3,400.00 for a family. Blue

Sounds good Dave. Daryl

This just in! We're doing an acoustic outdoor gig next Friday We will be playing to the customers picking up their take out meals at the drive through. Blue

Yeah, Lozz I think all of the major US Festivals have been cancelled. I always boast about our Summerfest here in Milwaukee ( Worlds Largest Music Festival). It's been officially cancelled. First time since it started in 1969. Blue

I have too many fears especially after finding out yesterday one of my old high school and band mates has it and is not doing well. Blue

Agreed Blue

Interesting discussion. This might be a cultural issue. In my conservative neck of the woods I believe. more people are going to come out in droves and get crazy more than those who stay home. We had a big protest here in Milwaukee yesterday They want to open the State up now. They don't like our Governor's May 26th open date Blue

Depending on where you live when we start gigging will be different Wisconsin will remain on lockdown until May 26th. I'm a senior with some health issues. I don't want gig until I'm confident it's safe. We're booked to play an outdoor gig on June 6th at The Cheel in Mequon WI. Blue

Very cool vintage pic. Blue

I'm listening to Dorothy

How many times have I said, " I feel like listening to some Bill Withers" Blue

Glad to hear your staying healthy. Yeah, we had a couple of 2 & 3 gig weekends all cancelled. The stimulus money I get will offset my $$$ loss. Blue

Not great, our band leader and her husband are doing live shows on Facebook every Friday Night. I'm staying positive and following all the guidelines.. How about you? Blue

No gigging here in Milwaukee WI. And there's no end in sight. And we had the whole summer booked. Blue

I'm isolated, however because. I'm retired, under normal circumstances all I do with my time is practice. I really miss gigging ,being around people and the energy we get from gigging. Blue

Last Saturdays gig, this Saturday and Sundays gigs all cancelled. Blue

I'm deathly afraid of Badgers Blue

I had two gigs this weekend. Both have been cancelled. It's my second weekend of no money. Blue
