In times of Covid a musician  could adapt by doing monetized live streams  where people would have to pay to be able to watch a concert as they would to watch a live concert. They can also have an area open for donations to help keep them running through these tough times so that we can continue to have these performers to go see when all this is over. They could also release merchandise as an added way of funding. I think that musicians could do a livestream that is either monetized, or has an option to donate that is also a plug for merchandise. Merchandise would include selling t-shirts, hoodies, bags, cds, dvds, etc. And with the point that we are at in the development of Covid-19 they could have small, well spaced out gatherings where all audience members must where masks as well as stay approximately six feet apart at all times to keep the possibility of spreading the virus to a minimum or on warmer, sunny days concerts could even be outside so more people can stay more spread out and being in an open space makes it harder for the virus to reach new people because they aren’t all breathing the same recycled air. I think the most accessible way for musicians to make money is through merchandise in these trying times because some people who would go to a concert are less likely to attend a live stream or less likely to pay for a live stream, but most fans of musicians or music groups are willing to buy merchandise to support a group, and doing things like cds are an easy way to allow people to still here what they are working on without the risk involved with going to see them. Also seeing as we are approaching the holiday season people are looking for gifts and getting someone a t-shirt of their favourite music is a good way to make someone happy as well as support a musician struggling through Covid.
