Marty Travis, the general manager of Billy Bob’s, considers the concerts he’s put on so far to be a success for the venue, the artists, and the guests. He says Billy Bob’s hasn’t been a “hot spot” for Covid outbreaks and is planning to increase the club’s capacity from 3,000 to 3,500 in June for shows by Lynyrd Skynyrd and Brantley Gilbert. He’s targeting 4,000 by August.
“If we can just dodge this for a couple more months and the vaccine really outruns the cases, then we come out of this smelling like a rose,” says Travis, who received his second dose of the vaccine earlier this month and hopes his fellow Texans do likewise. “There’s no reason anybody shouldn’t get it. There’s just no reason to not be respectful of your fellow man.”
But Travis also admits that patrons, exhausted after months of restrictions, are raring to go. Photos and videos of Lambert’s and Midland’s recent shows at Billy Bob’s depicted a raucous, tightly packed main floor. “In Texas now, it’s almost like nobody cares anymore,” Travis says. “And we don’t enforce social distancing, we just offer it. There’s plenty of room for people to get around. But most people when that show gets started, they want to be as close as they can be.
“I get up and intro the shows every night,” he continues. “I tell people, ‘Look, you have a choice. If you choose to wear a mask, we respect you for that and appreciate your effort. If you choose not to wear masks, we support you for that as well.’ And the crowd goes crazy when you say ‘no mask.'”
Matt Graham, Midland’s manager, didn’t see many fans wearing masks at Billy Bob’s at the Midland show he attended, but he says the concerts demystified the idea of playing indoors during Covid. They’re an example that indoor shows can happen at this stage in the pandemic, especially if band members and crew are vaccinated. (Midland are.) Graham says fans have to gauge their own level of comfort and risk.
“My principal concern has been what is the band comfortable with and how do we make sure that the fans are aware of the logistics of what’s happening at the show,” he says. “At the end of the day, anyone going to a Midland show is a grownup. We all lived through this pandemic for over a year now and we understand the risks. We understand how this thing spreads. People are able to assess at this point if this is for them. That’s different than last summer, where we really didn’t know how it all worked.”
