Is it relevant to list albums that have been postponed for a few months due to covid? I'd like to see music that has been inspired by lockdowns, or signs of a creative boom during lockdowns. -- FM — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:1C02:1C0D:A500:D882:F64F:A683:4528 (talk) 10:40, 30 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Music events[edit]

Should this page be renamed to something along the lines of "List of cancelled music events"?

At a page about the impact of the pandemic on the music industry, I was expecting to find things like industry-wide revenue is up or down, or that independent and lower-paid musicians' incomes have been disproportionately and negatively affected, or that a zillion music-adjacent jobs (e.g., ticket office for venues) were lost, or that small venues were permanently closing, etc. I didn't expect to see a long list cancelled events and little else. (Please ping me if you need a response from me.) WhatamIdoing (talk) 05:04, 22 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It doesn't seem relevant to list all cancelled events. Maybe there should be a visitor-number threshold and only list events with a long legacy (at least 10 years of annual editions). Large cancelled tours, for instance U2 or The Rolling Stones, would also be relevant. The list should give people a good impression of the impact of covid, ten years later. -- FM — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:1C02:1C0D:A500:D882:F64F:A683:4528 (talk) 10:36, 30 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Track that should be added to 'Songs and recordings inspired by the COVID-19 pandemic and its effects'[edit]

Musicians whose health has been personally affected[edit]

Some musicians have died or (likely) been disabled by COVID-19 in a way that affects their music careers. Two deaths: Charley Pride^[1], Adam Schlesinger^[2]... Is there a Wiki rule against including a list like this, or a reason not to? - Tuckerlieberman (talk) 00:00, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
