Halestorm’s Lzzy Hale recently shared a social media post to urge people to take the coronavirus pandemic seriously. The crisis has had an impact on nearly everything including live shows, which will likely be one of the last things to return. Sadly, as Hale mentioned, this also means a lot of “the bands you know and love won’t make it out of this.”

Hale said the following:

“Hey all my freaks!

I get why everyone is excited about some states reopening right now. In my opinion, without a vaccine, this is like opening up a designated section of a public pool for pissing. But ya know… you do you.

I’m continuing to self quarantine, write an album and do my thing. But what I need to address tonight is the audacity of some people to assume that just because I’m someone of note, that I am not suffering because of all this.

I spend most of my time, 90% of it, on tour, which is NOT a reality right now. My crew is suffering, the future is unknown, and most of the bands you know and love won’t make it out of this. So if you are able, please be smart. Don’t go out unless it’s necessary, and if you gotta, do curb side, wear a mask, wash/sanitize your hands. And let’s band together to end this shit!
