Prince & Livestreaming

Do you like the idea of Livestreaming?

I think it's an interesting idea. It's not something that I'll set my alarm for (uk), but if I'm awake and it's happening, I'll plug my phone into the stereo and have a wonderfully funky start to the day!

Being in the UK it probably doesn't fit in with work/family/sleep but I'll just do what I did with the 3rdEye TV stuff and download the audio later.

This. I live in Prince's time zone, which means these things generally happen in the middle of the night. I have a job and am rehearsing a play - I can't stay up all night, every night just in case he decides to play a couple of songs. (These things are generally quite short, which makes the "up all night" thing even less than worth it.)

If he decides to stream a concert at a reasonable hour, in real time, I might tune in. Otherwise... shrug

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

If he's there being livestreamed with a live show or rehearsal, sure.

If it's just the streaming of pre-recorded material, I think there are much better platforms for it.

The internet is dead.

Yeah, that. But also, I'm with what Genesia said--I'm in Prince's time zone, but I have a dozen preschoolers showing up at 7:00 in the morning every day and staying (most of them) until 6:00 in the evening. Waiting until 1:00 to go to bed on the chance that someone's going to stream something (although I have done it) is not something I can do every night just because something might happen on Livestream.

Prince and Livestream? Makes me think movie or documentary. Which is great! Keep going/pushing.

I like the fact that we get a lot of new music, thanks to people who record and share it. I'd rather simply be able to buy the stuff in top quality on a website but since in the end I get it anyway it's OK.

Bring on the Night (film) - StingWhy not continue to do the Livestream stuff and make a documentary about it.... Interview the Band members, production people talk about the creative process of touring and making an album, then splice together the best rehearsal sessions, concert footage, and interviews. Release the documentary along with an album of new material and/or concert performances, etc....

Generous of Prince. I like it.

What are you outraged about today? CNN has not told you yet?
