As the World Health Organization declares the 2020 COviD 19 outbreak as a pandemic, according to a report by Business News channel CNBC last March 12, many countries, private institutions, and even music agencies ordered the cancellation or postponement of mass gatherings, especially concerts. In the United States, many concerts from east to west were cancelled due to the pandemic.
COViD-19 Pandemic
The pandemic, which started in Wuhan City, Hubei Province, China last December, crippled everything including the music industry in the United States as governments are now taking steps to contain the virus.
Some of the largest music festivals announced that they were cancelling or moving their events to another date just to contain the virus since these concerts need a large crowd, a favorite sport for the virus to spread fast.
