I guess there is light at the end of the tunnel. I've been unemployed since January and because of the stimulus package, in addition to unemployment have been collecting the extra $600 a week. This week I accepted a job offer and start work on Tuesday at more than I was making at my previous job. Additionally, I see on the IRS web site that my direct deposit of stimulus money will happen on May 6th. For some reason, my wife thinks half of the stimulus money is hers but that's a different story. LOL

Well my brother-in-law checked his status and it was sent on the 24th and he got his on the 27th of April. Mine says my wife and I had ours sent out on the 1st of May and we still have not received it yet.I was wondering if anyone else is in the same boat?
Good magic to all, Eric |

Yes I was tuned into the Disney shareholders meeting today myself. It’s good news that the first park to close is now reopening. Lots of limits on capacity, but open none the less.
With restaurants openning up with limited seating I see people waiting outside more to get a table. Maybe some of the restaurant magicians could perform outside while people are waiting? |

The smaller show type projects could come back pretty soon. On the other hand, tours and corporate shows that were my bread and butter are still a long long way off!

Ray I've talked with music industry folks who think 18 months till 2 years before anything close to as it was will happen.
Here is a pretty interesting read. https://amp.wbur.org/artery/2020/05/04/c......concerts

I got my first inquiry for a school assembly since early March. They want something positive happen on the first day of school in September. Who knows if it will happen but its an indication of what people are thinking.

Yes, we too have been getting calls for the past couple of weeks for back to school as well.
That's encouraging for your area. |

On the negative side... I just got an email today that a major city festival I had booked for August is reconsidering the event this year. They haven’t cancelled yet but my contact was just letting me know the option is being considered after a meeting with the city today.
I’ve still got a fall concert tour booked (lighting design) - its a theatre tour not arenas so maybe it can happen? |

If it was a direct deposit, something is wrong. Mine status said it would be deposited on the 6th and the morning of the 6th it was in my bank. Speaking of checks and deposits, I read that the Democrats are pushing another package. This one is supposed to included a $2000 per person per month every month until the CDC declairs the pandemic to be over. The payments are supposed to be retroactive to March. They had a hard enough time getting the measely $1200/$2400. How will they every handle a payout like this?

They never will. It will never pass. It is a positioning move and nothing more.

$2000 Per Month would be nice. But all this Free Money has to end somewhere or we all are really going to be in a mess.
No I can’t see it passing. Tom

Broadway theaters announced they will remain closed until September 6.
It veers into the highly debated “online shows” category but Hamilton is releasing early on Disney+ this July. |

Broadway is going to be closed much longer if you ask me.
I just heard 2 very disturbing things, not only because thet counter my opinion, but because of how many are affected. MGM basically told employees to find other work while they can. New York New York and Bellagio will open but then a staggering number will be opening much slower, even late into 2021! I have seen as few as HALF the casinos will reopen any time soon. Meanwhile as of this writing 311 people have died in the state of Nevada.
