It depends on the band believe it or not...incubus required written proof of a negative covid test from within 24 hours, or full VAX proof. Primus the next night was absolutely no checking anything. Edit : it has to be an official test. Not rapid. Because "you could do it wrong". It's gotta be an official one. Sorry. Double edit : I got vaccinated in April so this doesn't apply to me, just sharing some info, hope it helped👍🤘

Regardless of your political views, at some point only proof of vaccination will carry any weight as testing alone is not indicative of contagion due to the delay between exposure/infection and a positive test result. I'm not without reservation on the long term safety of the shots, and I hesitated for the first 6 months after emergency use FDA authorization, but tens of millions of doses administered so far have not revealed any truly widespread/systemic issues. Bottom line, get vaccinated or accept the inconvenience of not being able to attend venues and enter businesses.

Yes, has to be within 72 hours. Also depends on the discretion of the band.

A rapid test is fine if you didn't administer it to yourself. Gotta have printed or emailed results

Yes

I know Judas Priest is requiring a negative test but I need to know if a rapid test is sufficient or if you need the full lab test.
