[QUOTE="Stuff On, post: 1987297631"] It’s a ridiculous idea, and really not required. In the UK we currently have a 2 metre distancing policy, with the rest of Europe adopting shorter distances of 1 to 1.5 metres. We currently have a Conservative government who are funded heavily by the drinks and retails industries. He who pays the Piper calls the tune as the say. That’s certainly the case here. The government will reduce the accepted distance to 1 metre, and as a consequence more people will catch the virus and there will be more deaths. But business will be back ringing those tills. This is a problem for indoor events. However, most scientists are in agreement that outside we are at a significantly reduced risk of catching coronavirus from others. So why the need to be sat in cars and having to look at a stage over a car park? We could have picnic concerts. I’ve been to them, and for some music genres they can work. Of course, there is a fly in the ointment. The weather. By the time these events were allowed, and organise, we’d be in Autumn. Not a reliable time for picnics. No. I wouldn’t go to a car gig.
