Gainesville artists gaze toward the Other Side
Bill Dean
It’s been a year now since the COVID-19 shutdown began an extremely bleak period for Gainesville musicians, who along with the rest of the country suddenly found themselves facing new realities unique to their own livelihoods and prospects, or lack thereof.
Despite the mass cancellations of gigs and a general unplugging of all live performances at the time, some musicians explored other ways of coping, including playing livestream shows from their homes or inside venues bereft of live audiences.
Still others performed in music videos – including two in Gainesville, “On the Other Side” and “The New Normal” – that addressed the pandemic head-on and brought together groups of musicians near and afar who could have only imagined playing together without them.

A social worker sees a dog chained up in the bitter cold without food, water or shelter in the yard of a client s home.
But because she is concerned about violating the patient s privacy or is afraid of retaliation, the worker might not report the case of potential animal abuse to authorities.
A bill that Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine recently signed into law aims to change that.
House Bill 33, which takes effect April 6, requires all social workers and veterinarians to report suspected animal abuse to authorities. The law also mandates that authorities such as animal control officers and dog wardens report animal and child or elder abuse to social services professionals, to create a system of cross-reporting.
