Amid all the despair, some things have changed for the better. I think of Stevie’s Edge walk. She wore gloves as she touched the fevered fans, but then she would go over to Sharon and Lori and rub the Ebola-infested gloves all over them. Even when she was held by the waist for safety, the Edge walk was never a good idea. Nor was it a good idea for Libdsey to throw sweaty towels into the audience, even if fans asked. I am glad that is over.

Oh you guys that stand at concerts, you will get your comeuppance. Even when live shows return, they aren’t going to let you crowd the stage anymore. They aren’t going to let you push and flail. You are going to have to keep your seats now. I will be in heaven. Justice will reign.

Early into this, I posted something on FB about people being lonely. "Friends" that live in house with OTHER PEOPLE would say, "Oh, just get over it". There's a huge difference in being quarantined in solitude, and doing the same in a house with several other people. For people who live alone, and no longer have their "social hours" with others, this can be a prison.

Even when/if we get a vaccine, you don't think we'll be able to crowd stages again, or have Stevie rub her virus encrusted gloves all over her girls?
