I don't want to segue the other thread...so a new one mainly to discuss the aftermath possibilities for music.
I'm sure there will be other issues more important than that, following the virus period, which I'm confident will pass...but we are musicians and studio cats...so let's keep it to that here.
I've been kinda concerned that no matter the outcome, the fearand panic we are seeing spreading faster and deeper than the virus itself, will leave a permanent scar on social behavior...and that could potentially wipe out many of the social/recreational things we like to engage in.
Like...will people go to concerts again, without some arcane and complicated "social distancing" rules that will make the whole thing not enjoyable...?
What about the local clubs and bars...will they have to impose crowed limits...or will it even matter, because people will just continue to be in fear of ever catching anything again from anyone.
There's a lot of other things...like even going to a jam at someone's house...will that be done with disinfectant and gloves...?
That's the kind of stuff that scares me more than the virus, the social reaction...or overreaction...that will turn us all into a cautious and wary society, which will be endlessly fueled by new fears every fall/winter when the usual cold and flu seasons kick in, which is when all the social stuff is normally at a heightened state...the holidays and all that.
I would really hate to see society go that far...but mostly for me, the music and the desire to interact with other musicians and fans that want to hear your stuff...all that could be permanently destroyed, if we allow this virus to change too dramatically how we interact as a society.
Heck...would people even want to go into a studio to record tracks...or will everyone get use to the idea of staying, playing and recording only at home...???
