Whereas some events, such as French Quarter Fest, were quick to announce new dates, I think people realize now that even those weekends in October may not be realistic. Of course we're all hoping the restrictions will be lifted by then, but will we be ready to gather in large, crowded groups again by then? I don't think any of us really knows.
That’s a very pertinent question that you asked at the end of your post. I know that I won’t be jumping on a plane immediately after the skies open, nor, will I be attending any large, crowded events, etc. for awhile. My background in the biological sciences wouldn’t let me. I’ll take some time to let the “dust” settle”, so to speak.
