With over 2,000 new coronavirus cases reported in a single day this week, Shelby County would seem to be experiencing a surge. So we at The Flow are delighted to report that there are some venues and artists carrying on in that old 2020 style. Does that count as “old school” now? By any name, live-streaming may be the healthiest option for your New Year’s Eve celebrations. And if you do have a safe pod to hunker down with, why not gather around the old modern hearth, aka the screen of your choice, and give these artists a listen. Virtually drop an extra tip their way for good luck, along with your black eyed peas.
