Tavan Anderson singing with the band CV at the Outer Space before COVID-19. Sometime in the first three months of 2020, nearly every musician in Humboldt County played their last live gig. It s difficult to pin down the exact date of the general venue closures due to the COVID-19 pandemic but St. Patrick s Day is a good hinge, a pivot point where venue owners and employees had to calculate the safety of staying open during a very busy and boozy holiday. There s a superstitious temptation to place the date at the preceding Friday the 13th, or perhaps two days later, the Ides of March, whose ancient association with the murder of Julius Caesar has given it an augury of evil. In truth though, there isn t one set date when the live music went away, just a series of closures that fully metastasized by April of 2020.

DPW Director Robert Tobin said the contractor urged the town to wait until the fall before the field is used at all.

The only stand-out album for me this year is Point of No Return by Those Damn Crows. Great band who are brilliant live and managed to put out an album of absolute cracking tracks. Pity they didn t get to tour the album this year, but did manage to catch them in Bristol in February a couple of days after they released it and again at Planet Rock s Winter s End which turned out to be the last gig we went to prior to lockdown.
Have to be honest, I m not a fan of tdc at all, but that s the joy of music for me - what one person loves another hates!
