WSP NYE Simulcast

Nice. $16.50? Not so nice.

I like both of these bands, but this seems like a money grab...

16.50 come on... I mean I understand... But then again I dont.

Iclips is good, But not worth the 16.50...

i have to agree. I will never pay a cent for an i-clips stream. Even for panic, which is one of my favorite bands. Its just not worth the money. I would however shell out like $39.99 for a high quality, HD pay per view with 5.1 surround sound. I-clips is just too shoddy. i love what they do, but i've had so many problems with shitty sound, grainy picture, stream cuts...ect to ever pay for a show on i-clips. It just isn't a quality web cast. I pray to god that if Phish decides to simulcast their hampton shows they will choose HDTV pay per view or the movie theaters and not i-clips.

maybe if it was about tree fiddy.

lame.

The simulcast is a good option for people that don't have a lot of money to something extravagant so they're just gonna have a few people over. Or maybe people that have kids or something (which means they are struggling anyway).

Basically, anybody who has the money to throw down $16.50 on a simulcast will probably find something else to do.....like go to the show.

when I first saw the headline I was expecting a theater run or pay-per-view... but iclips is just bad quality, I agree... it would have been awesome to have a movie theater play the show all over the country, get together with a bunch of diehard fans and enjoy!! that would have been good news!! by the way, why are festivals free to watch vie simulcast, but a show isn't? they are already charging up the ass for this show!! what happened to the $25 widespread ticket, every year they go up about ten bucks per ticket, and that is the band making that decision..

I will most likely be unable to operate a computer on NYE.

i would pay a dollar to whatch it with 15 friends. if one of them could hook up the inner net to a 'uge t.v.

for $16.50 i could go see mexican wsp cover band "widespread hispanic"

Yeah a bit much for a I-clips stream.

I might pay this much for a Theatre Screening??

16.50$ + my spare change = buy a bottle of tequila & watch my DVD colletion.

Sounded like a great idea until money was thrown in. Didnt panic stream there halloween for free? arent all shows pretty much streamed for free. sorta cool sorta sucks

That is fucking retarded. I clips is selling out? They have done so well thus far, now this... I Clips just put out there HD player with the some of the Rothbury footage, now we can pay for the upgrade. really shity. they just lost a lot of respect from me and i cant even watch the shows. I will be at sts9. retarded like i said

tree fiddy... funniest comment i've ever read on jambase. south park rules

and so does panic but i'm not diggin this 16.50 stuff

I am just going to go out on a limb here and I think you can stream it for free on Iclips or if you want you can pay to get it on Digome and it is DVD quality and you can watch it anytime after that.

^I think youre right. Stream it for free but pay 16.50 if you want to save it and watch it over and over again

None of you guys are going to be sitting at home on the computer probably anyway, so who cares. The money is for, as it says, a DVD quality broadcast, which their free shit is not. Plus you get to stream "well into 2009." Use something to rip the high quality stream and make a DVD so you will feel like you got something for your money and shut the fuck up.

Jesus fucking Christ, if anyone wants any money for anything, everyone here whines like an 8 year old with an allowance. If you want to see it, save some change for a while, I bet you spend more than that on beer for friday night.

$16.50 is an absolute STEAL! That's basically the cost of a few drinks. On NYE, think about it, it's TOTALLY worth it. I won't even bat an eyelash at this, done deal for me.

FloridaJam I agree HDTV would be worth it. Watching that with friends with a fire uo in the Pines in the snow. With a 42" Priceless!

A bunch of whiners Panic on New Years Eve for 16.50 from the comfort of being home and not amateur hour at the bar and ya'll complain. Get a life.

seconding the tree fiddy idea

spreadin' tends to be one of my favorite pastimes, but at the same token, I doubt I will be able to operate a computer on NYE. I'll hit up PanicStream on the 1st of January, actually at least the second.

I think I'm going to bring my laptop to the Pepsi Center on NYE and watch the Widespread simulcast while I perform a live PA set while I watch Widespread live and direct.

You shouldn't be sitting at the computer on New Years Eve anyways! You gotta be out causing some widespread panic of your own!!

...or you can get a ticket and go to the show! or any show!

ticketbastard just released some more tix for the NYE show

bitch bitch. they put it there for a good cause. if your not interested let it alone.

Its not just a typical stream from what I heard. It's DVD quality and you can watch it whenever you want and you don't have to wait for iclips to archive it. However if it's the same as every other thing they do (which is fine for free) I would be disapointed. $16.50 is worth a good quality live streamed show.

Well you and me baby, go hand in hand

Like a bowlegged woman, and a knock-kneed man

I'll be in the Pepsi Center but I know a lot of my friends who can't make it will chip in a get it for sure.

BRING BACK "George McConnell"! Halloween was "Free" and NYE is $16.50 ? Don't waist your money !

I don't provide my services for free either, but I won't be paying the $16.50 to stand in front of the computer for NYE. I bet the marketing group brings in about $300 for this brilliant idea.

it's too bad iclips turned into $$$clips - i honestly like streaming vid from the fests

My initial reaction was not excitement, but odds are that I am going to be with a bunch of friends hanging out, watching the kids run around, so some Yonder and WSP background music could be ideal. A couple of bucks each will cover it, and if the kids do not pay up, then I give them indian burns and tell them stories about listening to shows on cassette tapes.

I will be raging on NYE so I will not be watching this.

ehh pass..... love me some panic tho

^^ hey is that the fucker that pissed all over everyone....man i wish i got that pic first...

this is fine, but I will go see dubconcious and cadillac jones on NYE.

so I won't be sitting in front of any computer.

I did see halloween and it was great, not even a single problem with the web cast, it was good :)

Wow, people actually bitching about paying for stuff. $16.50 is not that expensive. It's about the cost of a DVD. Get 3 of your friends to come over and chip in to pay for it and it's less than $5 a person.

i have to agre about the BITCHING going on. are you freaking kidding me. its $17 FREAKING DOLLARS!! thats a whopping $5 and some change.....IF you can find two friends to watch it with you. good lord. better yet go to a bar spend $60 on booze....get shot down a hundred times....get a dui on the way home and figure out how to pay to get outa jail....that sounds like a better plan

i got a better idea....how about you and two of your friends chip in $5 for some lube, then sit around in a circle watching porn for free! last one to pop a nut on the cookie has to eat it! This is FSU rules...and if te person dosent eat the cookie they have to eat mac and cheese with piss in it...also FSU rules. Don't hate me....i don't make the rules...FSU frat scene does.

LOL, so you would pay to join some homo fraternity and eat some jizz covered cookie... but not to support the bands you care about. I knew you were looking for handouts, but now i think it's obvious you're looking for a handjob from a few dudes too. Are you the source of the glory hole?

I sure am! GLORY GLORY hallelujah!!

iClips will be partnering with Digome for this one. You will need to download the Microsoft Silverlight plug-in to view the stream. It takes only a minute and it makes for a "buffer-free" DVD quality experience. Your $16.50 will not go to waste and you will see and hear the concert in it's entirety. Have fun and Happy NYE!

Money= root of all Evil longlive live music

damn sucubus

Wish I could be in Denver for this! See ya all at the Big Wu.

If the technology has progressed enough for this to truly be a "buffer-free DVD quality experience," this is a great deal and something I hope becomes common. I had a chance to take a little tour of the iClips operation at Sonic Bloom last year. It takes some serious gear and manpower for them to do what they do (not to mention all of the legwork to get clearances from the Artists and Promoters, who are also probably interested in a little compensation for performing and putting on the show). Producing such a webcast is an expensive proposition.

Of course we want it free; but, if we are never willing to pay for things like this, the option will certainly go away. I won't be around a computer on NYE; however, if this was available on a night when nothing else was happening, I'd be seriously tempted to hook up a projector to the laptop, have some friends over and tear it up. I'd even be willing to pony up $16.50 for each of three nights in a row on March 6,7 and 8, 2009 (how about making that happen Mr. iClips).

I love the masses commenting on things they do not even understand. The beauty of this is you get the show in DVD quality that can be watched later. You can burn as many copies as you want. Like most of you, I won't be at home on New Years either, but sometime in January or February I might just want to watch it with a couple of buddies. I guess IClips should pay for it all, so you cry-babies can just sit at home and bitch about it then. IClips is shitty quality stuff which is why it is free. Panic has sold tens of thousands of high-quality DVDs of their shows for alot more money than is being charged for this one. This is definitely not a rip-off. Stupid is as stupid does.

I just ordered the WSP stream. Anyone know the best program to record the stream for mac?

yeah, i got pretty excited when i saw wsp and ymsb but the 16.50, i'm not down with
