5. A test concert in Barcelona

We are not going to leave without a little note of optimism.

Lots of notes, even, since it is a concert given in front of 5,000 people.

In Barcelona, ​​Love of Lesbian, flagship group of the independent Spanish scene, performed in front of an audience of amateurs taking part in a life-size test.

All tested beforehand in a center set up for the occasion, the 5,000 spectators were able to attend the concert, dance and even drink glasses at the refreshment bar as in our wildest dreams.

Their health will be monitored for the next fortnight.

This experience, like others carried out in the Netherlands and Barcelona already before smaller audiences, should make it possible to better assess the dangerousness of these indoor gatherings and to speed up the reopening of the rooms.
