With the government prohibiting mass gathering because of the pandemic, singers Regine Velasquez and Ogie Alcasid both said they “miss the thrill of live performances.”
“I think the digital platform plays a huge role these days,” Ogie observed, “and this isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Consumers are happy that they have YouTube, Netflix and Amazon. You get what you want with just a tap of a finger, right when you want it, wherever you are.”
“I think we’re merely transitioning to [a setup] that’s more convenient for everyone at the moment,” Ogie pointed out. “To attend a live show or any kind of event, there are so many things to consider, like commuting and then going to the venue. While these experiential events are important in our lives, we have to choose which ones we want to experience, [especially since a vaccine for Covid-19 has yet to be developed].
