I've been feeling a lot of despair lately, and these figures are the reason why. I'm one of the freelancers working with festivals. It's hard work, and often underpaid compared with other industries, but we do it because we love it.
How many people will lose their jobs, how many businesses will go under, how many musicians will go undiscovered, unless we can get help? This industry cannot go back to work properly any time soon, and it desperately needs funding in the interim.
