It's really sobering that an event in August that doesn't require a lengthy build has been cancelled so far ahead. We're in this for the long haul.

I'm expecting Reading + Leeds to go any day, hope I'll still see Rage Against the Machine at some point.

I don't expect them to make a call until early June/late May, we'll have a much better idea of the likely demand on medical services by then. Not least by looking at Italy which is 2-3 weeks ahead.

Lovebox went at the weekend too. Really can't be long until some of these July festivals start pulling the plug.

Rage  currently feels a bit like the light at the end of a very dark tunnel. But yeh, even if we're not on lock down by then, it still feels like some form of social distancing will be in place. I'd like to think that the August festivals are safe and I could replace Glastonbury with Houghton or Boomtown, but it seems a lot like wishful thinking
