In his Jan. 2021 “LD-at-Large” column, Chris Lose chronicles the struggle of transforming from a “roadie” to a “homie.” He offers up six things that he doesn’t do well, from sitting in isolation to “hockey-momming.” Summing things up, he notes, “We are all going through unprecedented times. We are all being asked to do things that are not in our nature. We got into the entertainment biz because we are social outcasts. We don’t fit in a cubicle, we don’t work eight hours, and we darn sure don’t give two shots about the opinions of bureaucrats in a suit. We are designed to put on shows. We need to find a way, sooner than later, to safely return to our profession and get back to what we are good at.”
