The whole world is suffering from the COVID-19 pandemic, and thousands and thousands have lost their lives worldwide. This is the time of strong precautions and social distancing. However, the American singer/songwriter Chase Rice does not seem to agree with it.
Not only that, but Rice also performed a concert in Tennessee on 27 June 2020 (Saturday), where less than 1,000 guests attended with no visible masks. He even posted the picture of his performance that clearly shows that each and everyone attendees of the event went against the social distancing guidelines. Despite the ongoing Coronavirus cases, he captioned the post 'We are back' with an emoji wearing sunglasses.
But the more important thing that people should focus on was their health. As the United States peaks the death toll chart and the most COVID cases in the world, it appears that they are in the most vulnerable scene.

Chase Rice enjoyed the tour for sure, but in the meantime, he is facing several critics for his recent acts. Many people, including his fellow artists, are criticizing him for his stupid work, which could lead to the health crisis and even death of the attendees. Kelsea Ballerini came publicly with her statement against Chase Rice.
Ballerini said:
"Imagine being selfish enough to put thousands of people’s health at risk, not to mention the potential ripple effect, and play a NORMAL country concert right now. @ChaseRiceMusic, We all want (and need) to tour. We just care about our fans and their families enough to wait.”
On the other hand, the Vice President of the Brushy Mountain Group, Brian May, mentioned that all local requirements were followed, and there were less than 1000 followers. As per his statements, staff and vendors were required to wear masks while interacting with guests. Concert guests went through a temperature check and did not wear masks in the event hall.
