Yesterday, JamBase reported about the addition of Phish live shows and studio albums to nugs.net’s subscription service. Those audio offerings aren’t all that is new for nugs.net subscribers. Both the service’s iOS and Android apps have been updated to include streaming video.
An update recently pushed through Android features a note about the video offerings, “Watch full length concerts on demand from the Video section of the side navigation. We will be rotating a handful of cherry-picked concert videos so keep checking back for more.” The iOS and Android nugs.net apps currently include professionally shot video of three Umphrey’s McGee concerts which took place at Brooklyn Bowl in New York City between September 6 – 8, 2011.
Umphrey’s McGee, whom today released the studio album it’s not us and last night kicked off a supporting tour in Pittsburgh, made their Brooklyn Bowl debut on January 31, 2011. The January ’11 show was longtime FOH sound caresser Kevin Browning’s last in that role before he transitioned into band management. Later that year, Umphrey’s return to the New York City venue for a memorable four-night stand for which pro-shot video of the first three concerts are available for viewing on nugs.net. On September 6, the sextet was joined by Grateful Dead guitarist Bob Weir for “Not Fade Away” and “Glory.” The next night UM delivered a stellar performance that included a second encore of Led Zeppelin’s “The Song Remains The Same” as a treat for venue owner Pete Shapiro. On September 8, the six-piece was joined by Biz Markie and Steve Molitz for “The Joker” as part of the encore.
