I have been to several shows myself, including this past Saturday (and hopefully again tomorrow) to see my cousin's band. Bar was packed, many dancing, no masks that I noticed, no issues that I have heard of. And, this has been going on for months, I see many of the same people. Some covid cases here & there (myself included), some are not vaccinated (I am). LIVE, don't play dead.
Some people do not learn.

DMB still played a full show last night at the Gorge, and will do so tonight and tomorrow as well. They had a replacement bassist, and DMB's keyboard player Buddy Strong filled in on drums for some of the show. Dave and longtime guitarist Tim Reynolds opened the show with an extended acoustic set, which they've been doing as a side-gig for a long time. Fans who were there said it was a great show.
I think as far as DMB, as long as Dave is able to do the show, they'll keep the tour going.

I don't know if anyone noticed this or cares, but the annual Burning Man glamping thing out in the Nevada desert this weekend was officially cancelled. But, instead, there is a "renegade" thing going on in its place, and apparently the BLM or someone said, no festival, but there are 3000 camping places out there so have at it, and that they are doing. I have been watching the live feed on and off, and honestly, this really appears to be the year to have been there, no infrastructure at all, and some real freedom instead of rule-based "freedom" that it has become. Not judging or promoting one or the other, but this year looks like you can have some real fun out there in the dust.
Right now it looks miserable but last night it was jumpin with not nearly as many people as usual.
I actually went the first couple years at Baker and Ocean Beaches in SF, then the Marin Headlands one year but haven't bothered since it moved out to the desert and became a celebrity Instagram moment.

Small time, but even the small time venues aren't immune to the postponements/cancellations...

Crazy. How long until someone in the touring party tests positive?
