With talk of festivals coming back somewhat soon (hoping with my entire heart & soul), many are mentioning masks. While I fully believe masks are important & do work, I feel like personally this can't be a smooth fix. Festivals are HOT and people pass out from heat alone without masks. I don't think they interfere with our breathing that much but in humid weather at 96 degrees & in a crowd of 25,000+, this makes me nervous.

How do you guys feel about this? Make sure to keep it friendly even if debating! No matter our view on the details of it, all of us want nothing more than to be able to experience the wonders of live music again with each other 💖
I feel like this is a sensitive situation overall. Masks are important for keeping people safe, but can also be difficult to enforce, especially in large crowds. Some people remove masks once past the entry point and it poses an overall risk, but, as you said, the heat of festivals and concerts paired with masks is also a risk.
I'm cool with it. It's all adults there. Let them make decisions for themselves and enjoy music!
