20 fkn 20. What a year!

Greetings all. What a year it’s turned out to be. Here in Australia, we are fortunate to be containing covid virus infection rates and are gradually easing restrictions on public gatherings and travel. However elsewhere in the world the infection rate still grows, which means many elderly people and those in fragile health are vulnerable. The U.K. announced they have begun distributing a vaccine to it’s people. Some relief in that announcement. The bigger problem i see is the mental health fallout due to the stress of lockdown, isolation from loved ones, businesses closed down, jobs lost. Live music had largely ceased globally since around March, but it is back here in Oz, albeit with physical distancing rules and caps on audience numbers. Keep connected out there and talk it out if you’re struggling. Let the music flow again and let’s hope for a much brighter new year.

Take it easy. Greg \Mh/
