This has been a tough year for everyone involved in the music business, here in Thailand and everywhere else.

Spare a thought for those in the entertainment business who have had to close bars and lay off staff and musicians in places like Samut Sakhon, where a new outbreak of the Covid-19 virus has struck in the past week.
