Everyone did a great job of social distancing at the first concert, so let’s keep up the good work. These backyard concerts were begun largely in an effort to provide a safe setting so our high risk residents and those who don’t want to take chances could get outside and enjoy the music and the company of their neighbors. So please be respectful of your neighbors and, if you have any doubt about whether you should wear a mask, read this.
Assuming the weather holds*, Family Music Night is on for this Tuesday, June 23, at 7pm at 1107 E. Jefferson Street.
The line-up for this first ever Little High Neighborhood outdoor concert is:
This event is already being hailed as the Woodstock of Charlottesville’s Upper East Side. But come see for yourself.
The Coronavirus has not gone away and is on the upswing in more than 20 states, mostly because people have not been social distancing. So if you are feeling at all sick, please stay home. If you attend, please stand at least 6 feet apart from people not in your household or pod and please wear a mask.
We ask people to practice social distancing at this event so everyone in the neighborhood will feel welcome. One of the major goals of these small neighborhood musical gatherings is to create a safe space for residents who have been reluctant to venture out because of concerns about the Coronavirus.
EVERY legitimate medical authority in the entire world recommends wearing a mask in public gatherings. You are not smarter than they are, so please just do it. If you would like to attend but do not have a mask, please write to me asap and I will make every effort to provide you with one.
Also, the Hell’s Angels have been hired to provide security at Tuesday’s event and will be on the lookout for people not practicing proper social distancing.
* In the event of rain, please check this website for last minute updates.
