Did you guys know that at House of Blues you can watch and listen to concert archives for free? They have a TON of concerts at very high bit-rates too.. so you broadband bandwidth suckers can really get your fix.

Really cool stuff. Let me know of any concerts on there you recommend.

I feel so compelled to bump this one up again -- only 10 views? People -- this is a great great thing! I mean, so many of you guys are into classic to progressive rock, and holy smokes, a butt load of artists have played at HOB. Please do check it out -- it's free.

whoa! Thatz awesome neil.

I am not that much into HOB stuff - but for free?! I like anything....well.....almost anything...

But the House of Blues stuff is so diverse. I mean, they have goofy stuff like the Jim Rose Circrus (on video, of course), to Sixpence None The Richer (a pop/Christian band), pluff like Blink 182, hair bands like Motley Crue, old school like Frampton, Kid Rock, 80s Duran Duran, progressive female like Ani DiFranco -- how could you not find something in there you like? It's all there in an between (with exception to classical). Dang, they even have Latin and Jazz!

Okay, that's my last post. I'm sounding like a used cars salesman. And the windows go down too! Look'a that! Ain't she a beaut?

Goofy? Sixpence None The Richer...goofy? (Ok so Kiss Me is kind of a dumb song but it wasn't even meant to be on the album). Anyway just had to post something on that because Sixpence is my one true love in the rock music genre. And "Pop" does not really give them credit. Listen to their second release (This Beautiful Mess), and then listen to the one with Kiss Me on it but skip that song. Then say they are just a pop group. Sorry for getting so excited. I love the band and don't think they ever get the respect they deserve.

Ohh and Sixpence's "morning become eclectic" session on the HOB site is incredible. I managed to get a copy of the master for it. One of the best live acoustic performances I have ever heard.
