JAKARTA - Not felt, it has been more than two months since there has been no music concert in the world. The COVID-19 pandemic or the corona virus has really had a significant impact on various sectors, including the entertainment industry. Even more worrying, as reported by Stereogum, Tuesday, April 14, health experts predict that music lovers will not be able to enjoy the concert for the next year.

Several concert events in the United States such as the Coachella festival or other concerts have been postponed until the fourth half of 2020. But that does not mean that it keeps the concert going smoothly. Zeke Emanual, an oncologist at the Center For American Progress, said the possibility of a meeting involving large crowds could not return any time soon.

By applying the rules of physical distancing or maintaining physical distance because of this situation, people will think twice about going to a crowded place including a concert arena. It is known that the largest spread occurs when many people gather in one place.

Office and construction activities may return, but large-scale gatherings such as concerts and conferences will not return any time soon. The fall of 2021 is the time predicted for the return of large-scale events.

Nothing is certain about this, let alone the corona virus is still attacking around the world. In Indonesia, various large-scale events have been postponed since last March. Starting from Kim Jae Joong, AB6IX, Khalid, continued with festivals such as Head in the Clouds and Hammersonic and continued with all planned concerts from March to April.

There are several promoters who continue to run the program with several conditions, for example Park Jihoon and NCT Dream from South Korea. When holding a concert in Indonesia some time ago, the two of them agreed to provide several rules so that the concerts were held, one of which was wearing a mask during the concert.

Until now, countless concerts have been postponed due to the corona virus. Musicians also use the internet as a way to communicate with fans. Some have made online classes, some have jammed sessions, or even held question and answer sessions with fans.

No one can say for sure when this outbreak will end, and of course it will take quite a long time for the situation to return to normal. But, we must remain enthusiastic and optimistic about life and believe that the pandemic will end soon.
