Bands are getting back on the road.

The best part of this photo from last weekend is the shadowy in-person audience in the background.

Greetings – It’s hard to believe that the shows listed below will take us to the end of our first month of being LIVE and In-Person! The music world has suddenly shifted gears and we’re getting more notices every day of exciting tours being planned for the summer, and especially for the fall. Even international tours are taking shape!

There’s a new campaign led by the live music industry to encourage vaccination. Going by the hashtag #vaxforlive, the push is on to crush this virus and get our venues back to full capacity. Please encourage your concert-loving friends to do their part!

Hit Me With Your Best SHOT,
