The Foo Fighters cancel a big LA show because of COVID

The Foo Fighters‘ show at the Forum in Los Angeles Saturday night was supposed to be a big post-COVID celebration like we saw at Madison Square Garden a few weeks ago. Nope. Not gonna happen now that a member of the crew has tested positive for COVID.

Were they not testing? Did they not require vaccinations for everyone? At least they’re doing the responsible thing despite having sold 18,000 tickets.

Anyone else concerned that America has declared “mission accomplished” a little too soon?

    Its shocking that people don’t understand that getting a vaccines doesn’t prevent you from getting covid. Even more shocking that the death rate of the delta variant as per the most recent official data from England is .2% which is equal to that of the flu. So its official, covid is not becoming a highly transmissible flu that 99.8% of people will deal with more than fine vaccinated or not.

  • Obviously they were testing, because that’s how they discovered a case. Obviously you don’t understand that getting a vaccine does not prevent you from getting COVID.
    What a pointless article.
