I've now lost 3 gigs due to COVID. A fourth one is still undecided.

2 one-nighters my market pay about what a 5 night gig in a club pays. So I've lost a lot of this month's income.

When you gig for a living, you don't get paid when you are cancelled. Under the circumstances I offered to either return their deposit or let it float for the next time they book us.

There are a lot of Canadians that we play for. Last night we played at an RV resort that about 600 Canadian RVs park for the winter. Almost all have gone back to Canada.

I talked to a few that are left. They bought US health insurance for their 6 months here in Florida, but they are going back home anyway because they say the health system in Canada is much better than that of the US. (I've heard this many times by Canadians).

I'm sorry to see them go, but I understand.
