Hey everyone. I've lurked for a while, never posted.. probably crossed paths with a number of you at DC/Baltimore shows. The Hold Steady are one of my favorite bands, but due to being forgetful, I always mange to miss when things like this happen. The Hold Steady concert at Coachella will be streaming as of 10:25PM EST. You can watch it at this link. You just have to install a plugin: music.att.net/s/editorial.dll?bfromind=MU_Tones_CoachellaPlayer&eeid=6446587&_sitecat=1384&dcatid=0&eetype=article&render=y&ac=-2&xslid=23There was a brief mention of this in a thread in the Scene Reports section, but I didn't see anything on this section and I didn't want people to miss it. So yeah. Enjoy!

Yeah, the stream went down right as the band before started and it looks like they still haven't gotten their shit together. Not happy.

Still not working, no. Hm. I guess I'm glad not to be the only one...

What a bummer!
Q: How do you know you're a loser?
A: You decided to stay in on a Friday night to watch a Hold Steady webcast.

Internet Explorer. Make sure you have all the required plugins. The band is taking the stage now!

Boy, CF's voice is pretty shot, and you can barely hear Franz's keyboards, but this is still pretty cool.

Every 15-30 seconds I get about three words of "Constructive Summer."

Finally up and running. Cut in in the middle of "Constructive Summer," for me (in IE). Is this the first song?

I think there's been some sort of holy intervention on my side, as the feed came back up, strong and clear, just as they took the stage. Fingers crossed, drink raised.

It keeps cutting out. Craig is hoarse as shit. But it's a pretty high-octane set. I can dig.

Wow, my feed has suddenly disintegrated, about halfway through "Navy Sheets."

This is not okay! I've tried it on mine and my roommate's computer. It's mostly blank with a few spurts of the song.

AT&T clearly just isn't devoting the bandwidth they need for this. I turned it on during the band before Franz Ferdinand and it was crystal clear. It went out during Franz because that's when people started to care.
