A city in Denmark held a drive-in concert, with a musician playing onstage outdoors and concertgoers listening in their cars. Could this happen in California?

Playing weddings was a safe, steady gig for musicians. Until coronavirus. Now wedding bands, DJs and planners wonder when their next gig might come.said the crowds were respectful of distancing regulations and there were no notable incidents at the event.

Local L.A. musicians and the radio station Dublab tried an underground version of this strategy at a concert in Echo Park in March. About 50 fans turned up for that unpermitted show.of public life reopening in California, and won’t happen until therapeutic treatments for COVID-19 are available. Aarhus’ model may not be a widespread solution for California’s concert hiatus. But for anyone who has spent an hour leaving the general-admission parking lot at Coachella, listening to a concert in the car may feel a bit familiar.

LauraFusion How depressing....

A lot less people will get to see the concert.

NO!! Stop with this bullshit!! It already is bullshit! The numbers aren’t true!!

Make-out city gets a boost!

No. This is all stupid. No one is paying 100 bucks to sit in their cars in an effing parking lot. No one is social-distancing at a sporting event. Everyone grow up and stop trying to find a 'work-around.' Spend that energy working on the virus itself.

The way of tomorrow will be sitting in your home, car or an enclosed area. What will happen to the smokers of the world? Especially casinos? I don’t want exhaled smoke around me. Sorry but true.

No.

no

Lol cut it out.

ANGELINOS listen up many of you were planning to move to LasVegas DON'T. The Palms, Fiesta Henderson, Fiesta & Texas Casinos will not reopen even when is safe to do so. Ricardos a high end Mexican restaurant permanently closes after 40 years! Thousands out of work.

Lols look at capitalism struggle lol

Oh, FFS! Even the 1918 pandemic ended eventually. Are you guys this bored?

Stop.

hey TheWhitneyBrown

This would never happen. Tickets would be like $2000 per car for an artist to even consider doing this. Why would they even perform for just 500 cars?

The amount of fear mongering is sickening ...no move movies concerts business meeting handshakes restaurants airplanes waving at ppl from across the street sports events no more gyms no more pets..damn If those doomsayers want to stay in the house fine..

GustavoArellano AugustBrown wait are drive-ins open?

Let’s hope not

Better option

Apologize

Nope!

Please, no...

🖕🏽

Sounds interesting

Reminds me of 1950's. Quaint! Fact remains until vaccine & more than 80% of populous develop CoV immunity, it is unsafe to gather in large groups & not observe social distancing. How hard is it to save ones life & others? No one likes it. Won't end soon enuf! Joy when it ends!

No

joeybert27

Fuck no.

TutiGianakis Ves una rave así, Tuti?

Yes, great idea for maybe next year, let’s also go back to drive-in theaters! But for now let’s focus on slowing or even eliminating this damn virus!!!🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Drive-in movies, concerts and restaurants will certainly make an appearance again but who will be able to afford the movie or concert tickets or restaurant bills?

Bring back drive in theatres.

I want to sue the LA Times just for being stupid.

No because that sucks

No, it isn’t. Next question.

Dear god no

I'm cool on Drive-In's.

Because hey, no drunk or stoned drivers at all.

No

Why is the narrative that things will never be the same. There have always been viruses. We need to strive to live the way we're happiest.

GypsetSerafini Maybe in your fuked up state......

I really hope not. I hope people get regain some of their sense.

This is the worst idea I’ve ever heard in my life....

We used to have so much fun at the drive-in when I was in High School.

Nope

If I hadn't seen this in movies, I could've thought this was a prank. Now it's very clear, these remedies and contention measures will just help to re-understand that this pandemic isn't over, yet. Much more is yet to come.

NO! A temporary musical relief

Cool

Perhaps we can just stream them and watch from home instead 🤦🏻‍♂️

STOP with the fear mongering alright?

Articles/headlines like this are BS to get clicks & attention. At some point, things will return to normal and we will have all picked up some really great social distancing habits. A good reference would be Japan and how they've handled keeping things sanitary for decades

How is this gonna work in California? The land of green new deals. 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

98 tickets sold. SOLD OUT! 🤣

And the covid is forever?

I mean I turn my car into a mobile concert anyway

Live anything is dead. Millenials won’t stand for any potential danger. coronapocalypse2020

No! Omg drive thru culture cannot expand after this

If so, my concert days are over.

They’re already having drive in raves in Europe

No

Coronavirus HANGS IN THE AIR but sure, y'all, this is the answer, right. Can we just, like, focus on staying alive and worry about things like concerts later? No? OK, I'll just go quietly back to Stardew Valley while you do the big important journalism lifting LA Times chortle

Works for me.

No way! Pass.

Demolition derby mosh pit! \\m/

I’m all for spitballing ideas and out of the box thinking....but no,no,no.

Tailgater

No

No

no... washrooms

That’s an expensive Uber.

Hell no

What's with all the stories that imagine the Coronavirus pandemic lasting forever?

Will there be a surcharge for parking, too?

This might be a good idea

Is the future of live music a drive-in concert...and demolition derby!? 🤔

God I hope not!!!

No
