Footage from a pandemic-era concert in England is blowing up on social media, but unlike some recent viral shows in the U.S., it won’t leave viewers wanting to take a hand-sanitizer bath. Roughly 2,500 fans gathered Tuesday for the premiere concert at Britain’s first music venue dedicated to accommodating social distance. The pop-up venue bills itself as the first of its kind, giving hope to an entertainment industry brought to a standstill by the coronavirus pandemic. It has 500 separated viewing sites, most with raised metal platforms. The spaces are about 6 feet apart and fit up to five people, all of whom must arrive in the same car.
