Hearing Belle and Sebastian Live in Concert (see below)
So I skimmed past this item on Metafilter this morning, but I didn't make the connection until just now: National Public Radio, which is headquartered in DC, has an ongoing Live Concert Series, where they do live Webcasts of specific concerts at venues including the 9:30 Club (also in DC -- it's probably my favorite local concert spot).
In most cases, the streams are archived, so you can listen at any time later on, and in a few cases, the entire concert is made available as a downloadable, completely DRM-free MP3 file (which means it's a regular, non-copy-protected mp3 that you can share with your friends, put on your iPod, etc).
That is very, very, very cool.
At the moment, I am listening to the concert mp3 of the Belle and Sebastian show from Monday -- the recording is very clean and high quality.
(I'd been reading the DCist review of the Belle and Sebastian show -- one of the comments linked to the NPR site.)
Tonight's stream is for the Clap Your Hands Say Yeah! show; I don't know much about them, but I keep hearing their name, especially because they credit their current buzz to a series of different bloggers posting about them. So call it a band blog success story.
Anyway, check out the Live Concert Series page for more archived concerts, including Sinead O'Connor, Death Cab for Cutie, The White Stripes, and the hardest working man in show business, the Godfather of Soul himself, James Brown.
Oh, and of course, rock on. Thanks -- Joe
