Daspyknows, you're 100% right! It IS the folks from the states where vaccination rates are WAY DOWN that we need to worry about. ( or NOT...I'm just NOT going!) You can be sure there will be fans at these shows----IF the tour happens---who are not vaccinated and may go in with a mask but take it OFF during the show...sitting next to some poor guy who followed protocol, got vacinated , wears a mask and still is infected by the idiot/carrier of Covid. I'm anxious to see the rate of transmission from Loolapalooza. With the Jazz Festival cancelled, maybe the band will get the message.
Big Time and for me it's all about quality of life .Quote

Maybe instead of "No Filter" it's "No Mask" Tour?
The "A Bigger Superspreader" Tour 2021? Maybe too similar to 2005.

EXACTLY. I’ve been following protocol to the T for an entire year. Got vaccinated, wear my masks always… I would hate it if some careless moron sat close to me without a mask the entire show and endangered all of us (if they have it). This is why we can’t advance and squash this thing. At this point, if the Stones or the City of LA won’t impose mask mandates (at least) for the show, I’m bailing.

Not sure if anyone else has noticed this, but the Las Vegas show is now requiring masks worn for the entire concert, regardless of vaccination status. There's a new message shown when you look at tickets on Ticketmaster. This is the only show of the tour that is requiring masks for all.
It's a requirement throughout Las Vegas. IE it applies to the casinos too

Vax requirements at a Stones show would probably result in half empty stadiums - maybe up to 75% empty stadiums in some cities.

There are already several Stones shows that will require vaccination or current negative test. Expect more to follow.

Several big tours have just added last minute vax requirements. The thought is that it’s better to deal with more refunds than risk shutting down the entire tour.

I drove to Atlantic City friday (from DC) to catch the Blues Travelers at the HArdrock Cafe. Opening the show was J.J. Grey and Mofro. J.J. was amazing!!!
I wore a mask but it seems that I was the only one in the audience of maybe 400 persons. I felt weird but I kept my mask on because I believe I was doing the right thing.
Rockandroll,
Mops

Here in the UK, The Royal Albert Hall has got The Proms just about every day till September 11th and plenty of gigs and performances throughout 2021 and 2022.
These are their rules for entry, and probably most live music venues in the UK will be the same or very similar.
In order to enter the Royal Albert Hall, those aged 18 and over will be required to demonstrate one of the following:
1. evidence of a negative lateral flow test shown via text or email from the Government website, either taken at home or at a test centre, within 48 hours of the performance:
To report negative lateral flow test result: [www.gov.uk]
How to get free NHS Lateral Flow tests: [www.nhs.uk]
2. Evidence of double vaccination, where the second vaccine was administered at least 14 days before the event via the NHS App (England, Scotland, NI and Wales Apps are all accepted), vaccination card, or letter provided by the NHS
3. proof of natural immunity based upon a positive PCR test taken within 180 days of the performance double vaccination, negative test or proof of natural immunity via an EU Digital Covid Certificate
Those aged 18 years will be treated as adults and will need to show proof of their Covid Status on entry as above.
Under 18s should take a lateral flow test within 48 hours of the performance. Parents or guardians will be asked to show proof of the negative result on their behalf. All unaccompanied 16 to 18s will be required to show proof of their negative lateral flow test to enter the Royal Albert Hall. (Evidence of a negative test can be registered via the Government website; [www.gov.uk])
Unfortunately without the above evidence you will be turned away from the Royal Albert Hall
We strongly encourage audiences to wear face coverings for the duration of their visit, in order to reduce your risk and the risk to others.
Please respect the personal space of other customers and staff.

Here in the States they issue out cheap paper vax cards that can easily easily counterfeited as has been seen in the news for the last few months - especially recently with more requirements put in place.

Can anybody answer this question? Im taking my 12 year old to Nashville and Atlanta and was wondering about the section that is on the sides of the stage. the 1st section that you can buy tickets for, if you sit in the first 10 rows how is your line of sight to the band? It's not the floor seats its the sections on about the 20 yd line. I dont wanna spend good money for a terrible view. Sections 108 & 130 for Atlanta and 111 & 131 for Nashville. Thanks frtylicks.
