October 16-18, the NIVA is bringing three full days of live music to your screen with artists performing from small and indie venues across the country in order to raise awareness and funds for struggling music venues.

Some of the biggest acts from across the musical spectrum are coming together to bring epic live performances into fans’ homes as part of the Save Our Stages Festival, taking place October 16-18 on YouTube.

According to the New York Post, a karaoke bar WeGo KTV in Queens was busted for the third time in a month for disregarding New York’s coronavirus laws.

“I’m not telling people what to do or think, the government is doing a great job of that already,” says singer Van Morrison, criticizing the use of masks to help stop the spread of COVID-19. “It’s about freedom of choice…”

After seeing a video of a group of maskless protesters shouting his hit “We’re Not Gonna Take It” and urging shoppers to remove their masks in the middle of a Target store, he’s decided to speak up.

Paul Rudd’s new COVID-19 mask PSA could make even a millennial cringe, but that’s exactly the point. The 51-year-old seemingly ageless “Ant-Man” star mimics the young while appealing to them at the same time.

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson took to Instagram on Wednesday to reveal that he, his wife, and his two daughters, had all tested positive for coronavirus. They are now all healthy.

Van Morrison is balking at advice from scientists and health care officials alike, denouncing socially distant concerts for their “pseudo-science” beliefs.

According to Billboard, fans will receive specific time slots for entering and leaving the concert, and will have to submit their personal details while buying tickets, which will be used for contact tracing of infections.

Metallica has announced they will be taking over big screens in the U.S. and Canada for their first live performance of 2020 being filmed by the band’s stellar production crew just for this event, along with a set from guests Three Days Grace.
