    For now on iTunes, let YouTube handle festival live broadcasts because yours sucks. The live feed is ruining the experience for me.

    Maybe because you're over the pond? It is absolutely fine for me, streaming fine.
    I have watched a number of the iTunes webcasts this year (not lucky enough to win tix this year :( ) I do watch it in iTunes if that makes a difference.

    I'm across the pond as well, and it's fine. Watching on my MacBook Pro in iTunes. Not a single problem yet.

    Video and Audio are coming in fine here in Lexington, KY. Pretender sounds 10x better in person though, I think they were having mixing issues towards the beginning of the song. Any one know how long they are playing for?

    Grohl just said they'll be in Cincinnati. Did he get confused with Columbus or are they really coming to Cincy??? Better be coming to Cincy.

    Watching now. The stream's working perfectly for me. Playing "Arlandria" right now, which is one of my favorites on the record!

    I know! He said Cincinnati, and Columbus didn't he? I know there is a Columbus date already but nothing for Cincinnati.

    wow, first they brought on Lemmy for a song, then they did "Tie Your Mother Down" with Brian May and Roger Taylor from Queen and Taylor Hawkings singing

    They've done that before, at Wembley I think.

    In Berlin we had Lemmy doing that Probot song, and in Milton Keynes we had Roger Taylor on drums for Cold Day with Taylor singing, Bob Mould playing on Dear Rosemary and Alice Cooper doinger Schools Out and I'm Eighteen :)

    So I was watching this on my Iphone and realized that I have apple tv. Beamed the video right to my tv. HD quality video. Simply amazing. Can't wait to watch it in it'd entirety.

    Fuck you iTunes for letting me not watch it and having the picture audio skipping. I greatly appreciate it. It seems like I missed a fun show.

    well, the Linkin Park video was only 30 minutes so they must have edited it down quite a bit. Foo Fighters played for 2 1/2 hours, hoping the same doesn't happen, but I am thinking someone must have captured it.

    Damn, the Philly show is on a Thursday! Was hoping it was on Friday, Saturday or Sunday so a friend and I could make a little road trip from school there. Still hoping for a DC/VA date or an NYC date on a weekend!
