But in the past week, the venue [Vessel Taphouse near Lynnwood, WA] lost the part-time pirate — as well as staff, bands and other customers — over a show with advertised discounted prices for people sick with COVID-19.
“Come see the show, maybe catch the virus or just stay home and whine,” Vessel Taphouse posted to Facebook last Friday. “Tickets 10 bucks or 6 with proof of Omicron positive test!!”
The so-called “I’m too sick to attend” show sparked a firestorm of backlash at 15615 Highway 99. Owner Steve Hartley said four employees quit and three bands refused to play another show that weekend, including headliner Atrocity Girl, a Seattle-based rock band.
“After talking it over, we feel really disturbed this post was ever allowed to be made,” Atrocity Girl posted to Facebook. “We do not condone this behavior and do not think COVID is a joke.” More
I would have gone just to piss people off.
People who have leprosy live together why not Covid.
A disease so serious that you can go out drinking while you have it.
^^^^I have Omicron, Delta still out there, maybe someone adventurous as you would want both types at once. Next example, lets says you have the flu or pneumonia but weren’t tested but want to go out for a few drinks.
Covid-19 + flu + pneumonia this is very undesirable at the least.
So stay home if you’re that concern about catching a virus with a 98% survival rate. No one is forcing anyone to go to a bar where there is a chance to rub elbows with someone with COVID. They are however, forcing people to be injected with a vaccine that doesn’t prevent the disease and wear mask that don’t prevent the spread. – Dr. Tar
Not the typical disease you’ll pick up in a bar.
I remember when a sense of humor wasn’t rare. That was quite a while ago though.
@Lowell- yes, good humor is hard to find these days.
Ah; Gloria Grahame. : )
Hey bumpkin, I said I already have Omicron variant, you want play mix & match, go RIGHT ahead, if you think people still are not dying from covid-19+mix+match you just keep lying to yourself.
