Missouri - first US state to allow concerts

Missouri Governor Mike Parsons has declared that concerts and other public events like movies and amusement parks can start happening in the state starting Monday, May 4. According to Billboard, Governer also noted that the seating shall be spaced out according to social distancing requirements. Most major Missouri cities, however, will not see concerts reinstated so quickly - St. Louis Mayor Lyda Krewson said in a statement “We will continue to be guided by data, not dates”.
