German Study Suggests Indoor Concerts May Have ‘Low’ Impact on COVID-19 Spread
The live music industry has taken a massive hit since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. While there have been attempts at livestreams and outdoor shows, venues have suffered and are at risk of closing permanently. However, a new study from Germany suggests that indoor concert events may have a “low to very low” impact on spreading COVID-19. But that’s only if organizers do the following — put in adequate ventilation, follow “strict hygiene protocols” and limit the number of people who can attend. “There is no argument for not having such a concert,” Dr. Michael Gekle, part of the team at Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg who conducted the study, told the New York Times. “The risk of getting infected is very low.” In an experiment that took place in August, German researc...

Rex’s “Cosmic Dancer” at a concert in Los Angeles; that live cover will finally officially be released Nov. 13. It arrives via digital download and streaming services, with a physical seven-inch single coming on Feb. 19.

Donald Trump Introduces Lil Pump as ‘Lil Pimp’ At Pre-Election Rally

Pump looked on unfazed and thanked Trump by saying, “I want to say, Mr. President, thank you for everything you’ve done for the country. You brought the troops home, and you’re doing the right thing. MAGA 20, 20, 20. Don’t forget that.” While many artists have banned Trump from using their music at his public gatherings on the campaign trail, Lil Pump has doubled down on his support for Trump following Biden’s tax proposal that would increase taxes on those making more than...
