  Life Without Live (2, My relation to the story)

  On May 7th, Rolling Stone writer Rob Sheffield published a piece reminiscing on the time when it was okay to go to live music events. A section of the piece details Sheffield's last show before quarantine -- Control Top at Union Pool in Brooklyn. It was interesting to hear how much he enjoyed the show, since the company I work for worked really hard to book and promote it. I tweeted about the article from the company account and received very kind words back from Sheffield.

  "John Prine Hospitalized With COVID-19 Symptoms: ‘His Situation Is Critical,’" from Rolling Stone

  The was the first news article that really broke my heart about COVID-19. Up til now, things have been scary, stressful, boring, and lots of other negative emotions, but more than that I've been feeling grateful about all things I don't have to worry about when I know so many people are having a much harder time than me. A text from my dad telling me John Prine was in critical condition was the first thing that actually made me cry. Googled it and this was the first article that came up. #HIST5241
