For all those Deadheads who can’t make the trek to Bridgeport, CT for the Gathering of the Vibes, the good people at iClips.net have made your day with Kreutzmann and Lesh playing Saturday across your computer screen. For good measure, the Black Crowes, Umph, Taj Mahal and a couple of my hometown favorites in PBS and the Neville Brothers are part of the party. Damn, that is great tunes….
I made my way up from DFW last year for this fest and was a rockin’ time, but opted this year for comfort of my living room watching this and Lollapalooza over at ATT Blueroom from the laptop.
The schedule still has a few spots available in the lineup, so keep checking back as I update.
This upcoming weekend, ATT Blueroom heads up to the “Windy City” for the onslaught of artists at Grant Park known as Lollapalooza. Not a bad lineup they are broadcasting and with weather supposed to hit the triple digits this week in DFW, I will be alternating between this and the webcast of Gathering of the Vibes over at iClips.net with a few frosty adult beverages.
AT&T BlueRoom shows up in Denver this weekend for the 1st Annual Mile High Festival and have lined up the heavy hitters to be shown wherever the bandwidth allows them. I will be watching from the comfort of my couch here in Fort Worth, but hopefully 2009 will have me enjoying the mountain views.
After feeling like death warmed over for more than a week, I awake to find the latest iClips.net destination will be the All Good Festival in the mountains of West Virginia. This sure perks me up for the weekend….
Even though there are a few holes still in the broadcasting schedule as of this writing, what they have so far gets a two thumbs up from me, especially Lettuce playing tonight. Sweet!!!

Even though details of what will be shown is still in the air, the iClips.net group will be spending the 4th of July weekend in Michigan for the Rothbury Music Festival. Sitting on my ass on a holiday weekend, a frosty adult beverage in hand and burning up bandwidth…. Sweet. I love those iClips guys…
In looking at the festival schedule, the possibilities are endless. I see that on Sunday that Trey Anastacio will be playing before Mike Gordon, so I am wondering whether we will see some sort of semi-Phish reunion.
