Brunch crowds are back. Rush-hour traffic is back. Tourists in horse-drawn carriages are back. But the best proof that New York City has returned to its full glory may be a mega-concert in the green expanse of Central Park. Seeking a grand symbol of New York’s revitalization after a brutal pandemic year, Mayor Bill de Blasio is planning a large-scale performance by multiple acts and has called on Clive Davis, the 89-year-old producer and music-industry eminence, to pull it together.

quote:

The show, tentatively set for Aug. 21, is still coming together, with no artists confirmed, though Mr. Davis — whose five-decade career highlights have included working with Janis Joplin, Bruce Springsteen, Aretha Franklin, Alicia Keys and Whitney Houston — said he is aiming for eight “iconic” stars to perform a three-hour show for 60,000 attendees and a worldwide television audience.

It will just be a vaccine infomercial and Cuomo, Biden, Harris suck fest, a little Trump hate with some likely shitty music in between.

They’re going to have a hard time getting everyone on that list to perform.

New York finally catching up to the south in letting their citizens freely do things. When will those Neanderthals join us in the 21st century?

It should culminate with the public hanging of de Blasio.*



















*If there were justice. I am not implying that I, personally, want to, or intend to, hang New York Mayor Bill de Blasio.





Oh and....

Tell that to Hawaii who still has extremely stringent restrictions in place and just announced they will not remove them until they achieve 70% vaccination. Keep in mind, roughly 20% of their population are not even eligible to be vaccinated

Anything short of an official Covid - free vaccination document is violence. I have had it with these Leftist Covid- deniers who hate science and don’t care about their fellow man with their selfish desire to have freedom and enjoy their lives. It’s racist and transphobic.

They are phasing it out. They just lifted inter-island testing requirements as of June 15 which was a huge pain in the arse. Now you just have to do the test before you go.

Also announced fully vaccinated can avoid quarantine/testing requirements once they hit 60% vaccinated. 68% have gotten first dose there so I would assume they get there within the next month or so.

Sounds like a pretty shitty music show to me
