"Yahoo and Live Nation want to cultivate a regular audience for concerts online by establishing a familiar destination and promoting it heavily. Their program promises to stream a concert for each of the next 365 days, including every major holiday. Live Nation will book each show and manage the camera crews; advertising will support the cost of producing the streams, and Kellogg has signed up as the first sponsor."

In fairness to author Ben Sisario, the article itself calls them an alternative rock band. Not sure if he's in charge of photo captions for the article as well, but that's where the screw-up is.

Well, folk punk is very much a genre. Not that Gaslight really fits into that category anymore.

watched the first show for this "series" last night, and i must say, I really enjoyed it. I already enjoy watching bands perform in any setting and apparently streaming is no difference. I am a fan of DMB but never been to a concert of theirs. It really was awesome to get a watch 3 hour concert for free.
Now, I checked the upcoming schedule and nothing really appeals to me. But I guess it's pretty cool that viewers get to experience free of charge.

So, do we have any idea when Gaslight's concert will be streaming? I can't find them on the schedule.

If I had to guess, I'd figure the PNC show would be the one to be streamed?
