Hi,
News this morning, Queensland are working on a vaccine. Testing on animals at the moment, human trials another 4 months or so.

If anyone does this and DOESN'T charge for it, you will be setting a very dangerous precedent. After all - you are spending the same amount of time performing your show, and should be compensated. Maybe, just MAYBE give a small discount for reduced travel expenses, but I urge you - do not do this for free.

In checking with my "computer scientist" wife she's saying it depends on their individual systems. Most places I go have a large screen TV. I guess I will need to call the different AD's and find out what kind of system they have and how it could be projected on their Smart? TV. Maybe from a computer, bluetooth, maybe directly on the TV. It will be a learning process but it's worth finding out about.

Another thought, maybe it could even be projected to the TV's in the resident's individual rooms. Good question.

... presenting "YOU TUBE" this afternoon at 2 in the dining room.
Danger Will Robinson!!!

...and you could even do it in your pajamas.

`That’s not so far fetched, my late mother was in a NH/rehab for 2 weeks. The activity director also a singer once per week would use YouTube Karaoke on screen to entertain residents, it went over real well with the patients/residents.

Paul, that had to be a very proud and exciting time for you and your family ...
I had the thrill of performing there in my late teens with our music studio's accordion orchestra ...

The article about musicians losing work is right on ... and it's affecting EVERY profession and job category ...

We did some everyday shopping today ... One thing I don't understand is the run on paper products like paper towels, napkins, toilet paper ... shelves in Walmart and a super sized market were BARE !!!

Tony, Your experience in the north matched what we also found in WalMart today here in the south.

I saw a couple in the supermarket today that checked the expiry date of canned food, only accepting dates of 2022. I don't know what scenario they were planning for - totally nuts.
