Against The Raging Tide - The Show Must Go On

 




"The show must go on!" says Correy Ware (far right), when asked about his band and COVID-19 at their jam space in Newport. Mike Ewing, (far left) says "We've been practicing every week, even during COVID. We all really need it to stay sane! Plus, when things open back up, we will have a whole brand new album to put out there." Against The Raging Tide, their band, has been a local Newport favorite for over ten years now, and they're not letting Corona Virus stop them. When asked about precautions they take during practice, they said that normally no one but the four, sometimes five of them are allowed in, (they made a special exception for me), and that anytime any one of them has been sick, they go get tested, and practice is called off until they get the results back. "I have kids and a wife, I can't risk them getting sick." says Jace Bennett (drummer). Thursday, November 5th, at their "secret jam spot" in Newport, Oregon.
