Going back to the age of 16 when I first started going to live shows there has never been a year where I did not go to at least one concert. Until 2020, that is. I've been listening to some live music on the Youtubes and that little nugget came into my skull. I would imagine some of you on this board are similarly pissed off about the live music situation. It's particularly galling to me considering I moved to the concert rich NY metro area right before this pandemic bullshite started and was salivating at the opportunity to see a ton of bands at some iconic venues.

Same here. Last show I went to was in Nov 2019. I had been averaging 15-20 shows a year before that.

I made it to one early in the year. Was supposed to see Charlie Daniels in March, hate I won't have the chance to see him again. Was also going to see Mark Chestnut, I think they have it rescheduled for later this year.

Luckily I made it to Tool in February, before the shitshow started.

I saw Tool for the first time in NOLA last February. Best concert I've been to. I miss this shite.

I went to a few before the lock down. The last one on late February was Chastity Belt, terrible name but good band.

Got comp tickets to Dennis DeYoung in late February, was surprisingly entertaining.

Was talking to one of my coworkers just last night about an idea he had for a festival “once things get back to normal”. Was thinking about getting my band involved.

I saw Zero several times in the late 80s in and around Boston/Hartford area. Cipollina was pretty good...

I saw Tool right before the BS.

Most upsetting was having to miss Megadeth in October.

My guess is 2021 won't be any better. Got to keep everyone afraid.

Before covid, I attended a few random shows at local venues as well as saw Alter Bridge in Lake Charles.
During Covid, I played a handful of acoustic performances and full band gigs outdoors or out of state.
I did get to see a couple concerts at Beauvior Park, thankfully. Actually will be performing there next month

I was also in that number that saw Tool in February. Really pissed me off that Megadeth/Lamb of God got cancelled.
