Take a look at the first socially distant concert venue
We posted about this a while ago, but now it’s a reality. In Newcastle, England this week the country’s first socially distant concert venue opened up and of course, we got a look at how it’s operating through social media posts. Here is what the Virgin Money ty Arena looks liked for a sold-out from the first show with Sam Fender. Music Biz dug into how the venue could influence massive changes to the future of live music with the global pandemic.
- What TV Shows did people start watching in the pandemic
- Look at what our Live from the Lot show with Local H in August 2020
The way they are doing it is giving everyone their enclosures to main tain the distance. The capacity for the venue is 2500. All drinks and food can be pre-ordered.
Some big names in UK alternative are playing Unity Arena in the weeks and months to come including Two Door Cinema Club, the Libertines, and more.
Hope this works out. Really miss concerts

Less than 12 hours after the Big Ten and PAC-12 announced cancellations of all Fall sports, the Big 12 says, ‘hike!’ ESPN reports the conference says it’s moving forward with plans to kick off the fall football season with a revised schedule, also released Wednesday.
Commissioner Bob Bowlsby released a statement saying, “Ultimately, our student-athletes have indicated their desire to compete in the sports they love this season and it is up to all of us to deliver a safe, medically sound, and structured academic and athletic environment for accomplishing that outcome.”
The current conference-only schedule is slated to begin Sept. 26 with teams each getting two bye-weeks.

Business puts up billboard calling out their neighbors for putting up a fence
Pettiness is a dangerous drug.
Take this for instance. This businesses’ neighbors put up a fence just so they would have a bad view on their patio.
So they called their neighbors out.
Check out the new fence installed specifically to block our view. Nice people who took over the business next door. Says a lot about your character.

A prison soccer match between rival cartels ended in 16 deaths
Maybe you shouldn’t let ultra-violent cartel members play soccer against each other.
Here’s why.
A ‘friendly’ match between two cartels, in a prison in North-Central Mexico, saw 16 people die & 5 injured.
Despite family members being present, both sides somehow had access to weapons, including guns.
It took two hours for the police to take back control of the prison. 😳

Assaulting employees enforcing mask rules is now a felony in Illinois
However you may feel about wearing one, it’s still wrong to assault someone right!
Well, ever since some businesses have chosen to enforce a ‘mask on’ policy within their store; there has been an increase in assaults on employees who enforce the rule on customers.
Now if you assault an employee who is trying to enforce the ‘mask on’ rule, you’ll get a felony charge in Illinois!
So if you ever feel like hitting a Starbucks employee for telling you to wear a mask… don’t!
You will go to jail, and quite honestly it is just a jerk thing to do!
