Inside a warehouse for MooTV, a live video production company in Nashville, Tennessee, the floor-to-ceiling shelves are lined with row after row of video screens, cables and rolling cases that normally would be out on the road with Brad Paisley, Chris Stapleton or Dierks Bentley.
At one end of the warehouse sits an empty bar with beer taps where fans once sat on stage with Paisley. It’s starkly quiet in the warehouse that was once a bustling hive of activity just weeks ago. “We’ve watched within a few days 100% of our calendar clear, which means no income and a lot of mouths to feed,” said Scott Scovill, owner of MooTV.
