Maryland hard rock act KIX played their first “socially distanced” concert Friday night (July 24) at a private party in front of 50 people. The show happened at Tally Ho Theater in Leesburg, a town in Northern Virginia, which entered Phase 3 of its reopening plan on July 8, and is allowing performing arts venues to reopen with half capacity indoors.
According to Blabbermouth.net, on Saturday, KIX took to its social media to share video of the performance, and it included the following message: “Our first social distancing gig! We haven’t played in four months. Private party at Tally Ho Theater in Leesburg VA. The venue did an outstanding job adhering to state guidelines. Temperature checks AT THE DOOR, no more than 50 people allowed, all venue staff wearing masks at all times, KIX crew wearing masks, KIX band wearing masks when not performing, hand sanitizer everywhere, stand up tall tables six feet or more apart with no more than four at each table, all patrons wearing masks, catering for the band was no contact, and we had a great time being able to play again and the fans had a great time! This was a dot your I’s and cross your T’s way to conduct a live show in the post COVID, pre-vaccine world and we are proud to be a part of it!”
