We’ve offered several reports recently on live shows, and the Covidistas demands before you attend. Some require proof of vaccination or evidence of a negative covid test, with mask mandates during performances on the rise.
Tupelo Music Hall is, by far, the least tolerable of the lot so far. It will not give you a refund if you show up for a show without the proper paperwork. No refunds is their policy.
The Capitol Arts Center (CCA) in Concord (of all places) has taken a slightly different tack.
Some artists and agencies have requested that attendees show proof of COVID vaccination and/or a negative COVID test within 72 hours of the performance. Those shows are listed below. It’s likely that more shows will have or add similar requirements, so please keep an eye on your email and be sure to thoroughly read event descriptions before purchasing tickets. As always, if you have any questions about specific shows and their requirements for entry, please give the box office a call at 603-225-1111.
Every show I see has some demand placed upon fans who want to give their hard-earned dollars up to see these acts live.
IF the COVID policy for a show changes AFTER you have purchased your tickets, you will be notified by email. If you are unable or unwilling to comply with the requirements for entry, you will be given a 7-day window to request a refund or credit.
If it changes after you bought tickets…
That’s something, I suppose. But is it enough? If you scroll the list of upcoming shows, several require photo ID (Racism!) and that you be fully vaccinated. No exceptions.
And the CCA implores you to “please, … get the vaccine and have not yet, … A high population of vaccinated people is the best hope we have to make sure venues, restaurants, and concert halls all across the country don’t have to close down again. “
Not only is there zero actual evidence of this what we see contradicts it.
Is it their fault none of the media they consume is reporting it? Is it their fault that the media they consume is suppressing facts about the efficacy of these treatments.
Whose responsibility is it?
The public Health oligarchy you embraced when you accepted their terms for surrender is wholly responsible for this. So, in this collectivist utopia, it is the responsibility of your ruling class to ensure that their media shares what they think you need to know.
They are not telling you about the risks or failures of their prescription, so this can no longer be about public health. If it were, the first they’d do after people started dying is stop killing them.
The CDC admits that these vaccines have killed at least 12,000 and harmed tens of thousands of others.
The odds are excellent that these numbers are suppressed. Correct or not, shouldn’t that be displayed prominently at the top of every media home page or printed front page?
If it was good enough for the “Republican war for oil” in Iraq, why is it not suited to the so-called war for “public health?” These “generals” began to wage war after giving everyone but you immunity from risk or harm.
So, while we appreciate the refunds – if the terms change after you buy a ticket, we’d appreciate it a lot more if someone started investing a bit of time and money in the truth.
The odds of you dying from COVID are minimal. And the odds of you dying from the vaccine are also small, though we have yet to understand the long-term side effects.
Given what we know and what we don’t, there is no reason at all to risk death or harm from a vaccine unless you represent a sliver of the population at high risk from the flu. The rest of you can use OTC meds, and if necessary, and this is rare, take a few days off.
And yet, here we are because we allow it. There is no other reason.
