The stream was great! The talkers just added atmosphere. Thanks again so very much for streaming for us!!

We really seem to have our own built-in Forum streaming crew, just like we always hoped Sugaree and Kfender have started us out great, now Em and Tim are ready and able to pick it up for the rest of the weekend. Doesn't get much better on couch tour than this!!

You have to have some tolerance for "talkers" on a stream, or even an audience tape. We notice it more with the streams,
because they are usually a phone, that's held at the same level as everyone around. When the tapers stream, it's from a mic.
stand, raised 8 - 10 feet in the air. But we have to take what we can get. And I sure do appreciate it.
(I hope to be able to stream a show for all you good folks someday. So, I'm paying attention. )

I think tapers are getting more and more into streaming as well as taping so that should bode well for the future.

As for the FFF streaming - again a HUUUUGE THANK YOU!! It must be a lot of work keeping that phone going and hoping the talkers are staying away and just all the general babysitting you must have to do. Really it's a job and I just hope you all are having fun while you are streaming because that would suck if you weren't! The number one thing is to have fun at the show, if it becomes work then it is not worth it.

Absolutely. I didn't make that comment for the good of the stream listeners. I was speaking more for those people around you. I would never advocate for the streamers and youtube suppliers to alter the experience for those there so the internet could have an experience. Quite the opposite. The cell phone jockeys are every bit as rude and disruptive as the talkers. Who wants to watch the band through a sea of cell phone screens held up by a forest of arms?

to all my special friends that are interested - i have posted my CMAC pics in my further connect photo album! enjoy!
that is about as "tech" as i get!
sorry i dont know how to put them on this page!

I hate to say it cuz I never like to diss folks but at least you received a response. I emailed support last tour and still have not received any response other than the canned automated response saying, "like yeah man we got your email, now pissoff."
