I’m worried for the Aust tour. Both cancelling and attending.

Maybe they can add an Adelaide date due to their suddenly open schedule.

I’d say you’re fine at a concert.

From the bands point of view it’s probably the planes. Reading earlier than planes have hospital grade filtration in the AC but if the guy beside or behind you is coughing there’s nothing you can do. Having just done three long flights from Asia I can tell you the fear is real and it not even paranoia

Upshot

I dunno... 20k people yelling and sweating in a confined space (not to mention GA) all rolling through the same bathrooms as quickly as possible to get back before even flow is done...

That's my viewpoint as well. I might be putting these tix up for resale. Shame as this is a gig I want to see.

Am I crazy for not worrying about the Corona virus at all? Of course I'm sorry for those affected, just like everyone seriously ill from the flu.

Maybe. Only time will tell.

You're a healthy 40 year old so you're not likely to be affected.

Yea i've kind of been not thinking about it. Same with the bird flu that caused such a commotion years ago.

Though, with my girlfriend staying in kerala india for a couple of weeks...

I read that there have been 3 infected people in India, out of 1,5 billion. Looks very small there so far.

5th, 6th now 7th person dead in Italy.

A few days ago Northern Italy was just going about their business. This could happen anywhere now.

Yes, nothing here so far. But the flu usually spreads all over. Even in little Norway, a thousand people die from the flu every year.
