I had to quit going to concerts during the pandemic because there weren’t any being held in my area.
The venues in my city either closed entirely or had to remain until the lockdowns were lifted.
While the risk of viral transmission remains, the numbers look a lot better than they did 18 months ago. I hate it when I hear about deaths in friends’ families or circles of acquaintances, especially happening this late into the pandemic. I pray that I still don’t develop the condition, but who knows with so many people catching it in this area. That’s why I keep wearing my mask whenever I’m in public. I quit going to concerts altogether in 2020 when I was particularly worried about catching the illness, but now I feel confident going to a concert with a mask on my face, despite the number of people present. In fact, I went to an amazing concert just last night and consumed 100mg of THC in cannabis edibles before I left my apartment. By the time I got to the concert hall, I was just starting to feel the initial effects of the THC kicking in. When the concert finally started, the cannabis edibles I purchased from the medical cannabis dispensary were finally peaking in their effects and I was feeling amazing. It would have been a great concert without the THC in my bloodstream, but I’m still happy that I consumed the cannabis edibles. I had a phenomenal time last night and I hope I can go to another concert if I can in the short term future, but that’s assuming a band I like is playing a show anytime soon in the city.
