field like at past shows, the audience members for this surprise performance, all health care workers, watched the"We Were" singer from their cars, parked 6 feet apart.
Keith Urban performs for first responders at the Stardust Drive In Theatre in Watertown, Tenn. May 14, 2020. The private show was set up exclusively for more than 200 doctors, nurses, emergency medical technicians and staff from Vanderbilt Health, part of Vanderbilt University Medical Center."So we had the idea for the drive-in ... over a month ago," Urban said.
Concerts and festivals haven't been immune to the nationwide stay-at-home orders. The music industry is preparing to lose an estimated $9 billion in ticket sales, according to a study published by the trade publication Pollster.Doja Cat's song"Say So" became a No. 1 hit, fueled by a TikTok dance craze. Artists like Ariana Grande, Justin Beiber and Drake have filmed quarantine-themed videos.
"I started DJ-ing and, listen, the energy was just different, it really felt like a party," Jones said."Then I would read the comments and then say, 'Wow, I was putting out energy,' but based on what people were saying, I could really feel the energy." "It's really affected the 12 million people in the entertainment business, you know, live entertainment in the U.S. alone," Gratton said."I mean, we have caterers, there's the popcorn poppers, the ushers, the parking lot people. It's not just the roadies.""We go to the studio, do work with the artists and the dancers and the choreographers and designers and work throughout the day ... going through setlists, getting everything advanced," he said.
Gratton spends around 10 months a year on the road. Now he and 87 employees on his team are out of work. He said he's worried about his crew and their families being able to put food on their tables.
Having seen the state of festival sites after the events, I'd be happy if this were the end of them, for good! Funny, the worst ones seem to be the ones where all the idiots get on stage and give a barefoot rant about the climate and saving the planet...
Shows cancelled/postponed indefinitely, but no refunds, even at a time when a lot of folks could use that presale cash back. And we’re supposed to sympathize with the promoters? That, not COVID-19, is what sours people on concerts.
Funny as hell how this bug is the apocalyptic end all with the media. No more concerts ever! No more diner's, no more bars, no more clubs, no more hollywood😏 never again 'iT's ThE nEw NoRM' Next you'll have people afraid to eat meat or ride a bike. Or walk out in daylight🤦🏻♂️
Um right public safety... Think I need me some anti-public safety bouncers for my money concert show.
And the conventions industry is suffering the same losses if not more!
Bryan Adams said it best lmao
Even the summer Chesney tour got tossed to the curb. It's bad out there.
