Will you ever attend another live event?

    This is likely. The vaccine was very rushed.

    Yes ... provided there are events to attend.

    Small clubs and large arenas will bounce back, but I'm wondering about the 1,000 to 3,000-seat theaters. It will be at least one year without any shows for them -- and more importantly, one year without concertgoers buying alcohol at the shows.

    I'm guessing at least 50 percent of those establishments won't reopen. I know of at least one place near me that's gone, and it was a great place to catch a show.

    Once I get the vaccine, I'll be back. But I hadn't been to a 20,000+ crowd event in five years anyway.

    Probably mask on until infection rates really bottom out.

    The number of people is not as important as the proximity and whether it is indoor or outdoors

    I would be much more comfortable seeing the newest iteration of the Grateful Dead at a stadium show than seeing the local tribute band, Box of Rain, at a “club” with 400 people.
