Nobody is touring for a long long long time. Summer/Autumn 2021 My guess: Summer 21: New Album Winter 21: UK Tour Spring 22: European Tour Summer 22: Stadium shows With this news of a possible vaccine, I wonder once it’s approved for the masses how long it will take for everyone to get it? I can only imagine huge lines to get the shot. We shall see.

So with the set dates for a streamed gig, you'll have to watch it exactly on time and only able to watch once ?

"watch the Pistols when they’re on the fuckin’ boat, that’s how we want it to be"
Liam in Mojo Magazine earlier this year, now he got to do it.

Weller's streaming gig this week is exactly the same price. Scam or not scam, it really doesn't matter to me. I'm happy to experience his gig even on the screen and Liam's next month. doesnt matter, those artists dont need it, they have money and that "gig" could easily have been funded by one or two sponsors, and make it free for everyone. this is another way the music exec have found to make easy money. I wouldn't mind paying that if it was a smaller artists because they have no revenue and struggle this year. But like they slowly raised ticker prices to a sky high fee and no one complained, they're slowly introducing another way of making easy money on a format that was free before: promotionnal gigs. This format will remain paid only even after covid when it was free beforehand. And you dont even own it afterwards.

I mean, it's still months off even with the good news today, but it's healthcare 'frontline' workers and people in vulnerable groups who need it first - like any jab. If governments around the world are still keeping countries in a state of semi-lockdown once the above groups have had the vaccine then this thing becomes more than just about the virus. Gigs, events, crowds at sporting events etc - they should be allowed once the people who need the vaccine have, by and large, got it. That should, hopefully, coincide with the spring and better weather meaning the flu season drops off, too (so less strain on healthcare services). I'm happy - as a fit and healthy (all things considered) 25-year-old - to be last in the line for a jab, and I speak as someone whose had to go and get a COVID test a few weeks back because I got a really nasty bug (tested negative). People my age and probaly 10-20 years either side can deal with it, 99/100. It's obviously making sure that the 1/100 gets the vaccine.

Sorry, on topic, glad he's doing it, good little idea and it'll be really cool.
I'll have to wait until closer to the time to see if I'm gonna buy it as I'll likely be working so it'd seem pretty pointless.
Don't see an issue with charging, either.

Two very different experiences really. A real gig would cost 60+ a ticket plus beer money / transport, possibly hotels. Couple of hundred easy. This is 16.50 for stream plus a 20 for a crate of beer and you can split the cost with as many people as you can find to invite. I hope one isn't considering breaking any lockdown rules...

The reason he didn't do it live has already been explained.
Had they announced it, and the concept, there would be people going down to the Thames in crowds to see the boat pass.
The UK is currently in lockdown, so they decided to do it on the sly and then announce after.

America went bat shit crazy for toilet paper about 7-10 days before the virus hit full swing. And it stayed that way for weeks/months. Extreme toilet paper shortage. I can only imagine when a vaccine is released to various outlets.

This format will remain paid only even after covid when it was free beforehand. And you dont even own it afterwards. Just a question, how have you been hit financially by covid (have you, or have you been okay?). I'm not accusing you of anything, just wondering if you have and if that is impacting your thought process on this. I lost all my work this year. Every single shift. I'm currently working two jobs (luckily one of them being the one I had before) to try and get back on my feet. A huge majority of people in the UK have either had furlough money, with nothing else to spend it on, so getting at the very least 80% of their wage, if not more topped up by their employer, or have qualified for the SEISS which, whatever way you look at it for those that qualify (I didn't because of when I chose to go self-employed) is a pretty generous scheme, even if it's badly put together in terms of how people can qualify for it. My point being is, a lot of people have done alright this year, one way or the other. A lot haven't, and it's crap, but if you can't afford it, just don't pay for it. It's that simple. If I can afford it, I'll pay it. If not, I won't. Your general point about it being a worry for the future of gigs etc, I believe it, but while you've still got people shouting for lockdown at every available opportunity then that's what will happen. It's why - once there is a vaccine available to those that need it - life should be firmly back to normal. Because COVID's not going anywhere for a while, so we have to just accept that it's here to stay and return to normality once a vaccine is available. It'll then just become like a flu jab, I'm sure; if you need it, you get it.

Of course it should be free as the gig isn't even live it's already been recorded. And, asking nearly £20 just to watch it is far too steep. It's just a rip off basically and I don't want to buy anything which I would have to watch at a certain time as I like to watch things when I want.

I can only imagine when a vaccine is released to various outlets. Same over here. But I can only speak for the UK and in April people who were classed as 'vulnerable' got letters telling them not to leave their house for 3 months. Those people should be the first in line to get the vaccine.

People my age and probaly 10-20 years either side can deal with it, 99/100. It's obviously making sure that the 1/100 gets the vaccine. Nothing personal, but this is just scientifically incorrect. There is an actual and known need for a large portion of a population to get an effective vaccine to cut down on overwhelming infection numbers, which is the thing that threatens all of our high-contact societies. That's how vaccines for actively spreading infections work. This is not new or specific to Covid-19 and it's not about "more than the virus." Frontline workers and vulnerable people will get it first because there won't be enough for all at first, but that won't stop the spread and we don't know yet how long immunity lasts. Be it the UK, the US or anywhere else, until 60 to 70 % are vaccinated, some restrictions will likely remain as the danger for it to go out of control will remain. You can help things return to "normal," at least in terms of social life, by getting vaccinated when it is available to you. It is really going to be up to everyone to help create better conditions for stuff like concerts and mass crowds. If people refuse, the return will be much slower. (I'm very glad you got better from your illness but it's also not about whether young people can handle it. Regardless of how you handle it, and many do get a mild flu-like illness, you can spread it to others, some of whom may be far more vulnerable than you think. You wouldn't think Liam is vulnerable to look at him, but he might be due to an autoimmune condition.) Hopefully, governments will be successful in explaining this to people without too much skepticism and fear. It's not going to be easy at all in the current atmosphere. Scientists have worked at record speed to develop vaccines. But that is just the first part. People across the world are going to have to trust the science and be patient with the process to truly make things better faster. Now back to the gig.

I'd rather have my mum and dad get the vaccine first than me. Surely if people who need it first get the vaccination, and then the rest of the population in say, June, there will still be hardly any chance of the spread doing lasting damage to people or causing hospitalisation? Of course I'll get the vaccine when it's available to me, but I'd rather my parents, grandparents etc have it over me - and that should mean life in general can return to more of a normality anyway. If the vulnerable people are immune, then that's the first step. This thing will change and mutate so there's going to need to be multiple vaccines which I'm sure they're working on. They've just discovered a strain in Mincs in Denmark haven't they, culling the lot of them. So God knows how they plan to deal with this thing. Anyway, the gig is good. Hopefully in the not too distant future we can all go to them in person again.

If I watch anything streamed I always have to use my Samsung Galaxy phone because I don't want to use up all my data on my tablet as I use it a lot and as for my laptop I just use a dongle stick to connect to the internet as I don't want a land line phone because I would never use it and I don't want anymore contracts anyway.

What's the difference between artist presale virtual ticket and virtual ticket? They have also different "goes on sale" dates.

Bottom line is that no promoter is going to pack 30,000 people cheek to cheek in an indoor stadium until they are certain it won't be a super spreading event full of massive liability. The main trigger for mass events is going to be getting the numbers down across all age groups. When the numbers come down country-wide (no matter which country you live in), then concerts and festivals will slowly ramp back up. But it won't be enough to have 10% or 20% of the population vaccinated to get those numbers down where they are high right now (like the US/England), so it's not going to be immediate after some start getting the vaccine. Life will start to get safer for people we care about and then, as more people get vaccinated, it will get more fun for everyone. Can't wait.
