Quote24FPS The entire Covid experience has really made the experience with my fellow humans a drag. So many jerkoffs here in America act like children. As if wearing a proper mask, over your mouth and nose, is something to rebel against. Like the virus itself is your grade school principal, and you're cool for going against it. If this country had entered World War II with this generation, w

QuoteMisterDDDD Wow.. all those examples from history. History being the operative word. This is what gaslighting looks like. Taking a current rebuke of racism and its symbols, equating it with things that have occurred in the past that have zero to do with the current topic, and hyperventilating over it like that's the real issue. Comical. You miss the point. Just wonderin

QuoteMisterDDDD Quotestickyfingers101 If the vaccine works, then a "No Vax, No Entry" is a fallacy of logic: If the vaccine protects you from getting COVID to a very high degree, there is no need for a "No Vax, No Entry" policy... So the workers..ushers, attendants, crew, and indirectly their loved ones, should be subjected to non-vaccinated event goers? Or should they

QuoteMisterDDDD Quotestickyfingers101 I assume your reason for supporting such a policy is "fear" of catching Covid AT a show (ie. you don't want to and you want to reduce your risk at the concert)...if I'm wrong, please correct me and accept my apology in advance. So...given that.... Nope. Fully vaccinated for over a month now, as are all the adults in my household.

This TX thing is yet another reason why a "No Vax, No Entry" policy is fool's errand (at least in the US). a tour involves multiple states, cities and stadiums - each with their own rules and ways of doing things. are the Stones (or others) willing to simply skip Texas or any other state/city that won't enforce such a policy?

I have a feeling that long-term history (100+ years) is not going to be that kind to many/most of the white Rock n' Rollers and Bluesy folks...
