Rock stars recording songs in quarantine!
At the end of last month, most of our large and vast country went into self-isolation mode. The reason - the unfortunate coronavirus. It would seem that such reckless rebels as rock stars cannot sit peacefully at home and drink tea... But they can! What do rock musicians on quarantine, sitting at home? They write new songs, play old ones, and also conduct live broadcasts in social networks and post videos of mini-concerts! Actually, about all of them in order.
For example, Paul Stanley of KISS shares with subscribers his thoughts on the song and the album "Love Gun" in general.
And Elvis Costello gave a forty-minute home concert! In between songs, the musician enjoyed chatting with the audience.
Whitesnake vocalist David Coverdale has recorded a new pandemic anthem called "Coronovirus Blues". The other day Coverdale also performed a freshly quarantine song - "Vacuum & Dust".

Ritchie Blackmore and his wife Candice have rewritten Joan Baez's "Diamonds and Rust", calling their version "Vacuum and Dust". As it's not hard to guess, the new lyrics were written on the evils of the day about hand washing and all things in that vein....
And Brian May records new videos almost every day, which makes thousands of people all over the world very happy! By the way, the Queen guitarist not only gives home concerts, but also organises mini-tutorials on how to play guitar solos correctly! For example, in one of his videos Brian takes apart a solo from the hit "We Will Rock You". In general, if you have a guitar at home, you know what to do!

And if you've got drums too, subscribe to Roger Taylor on Instagram. When else will Queen give away free instrument lessons?!

And Joan Jett has discovered new opportunities: she now rehearses with The Blackhearts via Skype!
