KGSR-FM webcast

Its the same webcast - someone should confirm the times

For some reason I can't find a link to work out what all this EST PST stuff means - anyone have a clue when this is going to be on in the UK (GMT) ? Cheers.

ok I'm a divvy..

7PM EST seems to convert to Midnight tonight for UK as does PST

lads - can you start 10 mins late please coz I will be at work until midnight grrrrr...

i used this - time zone convertor

OK, I'm so confused..

On the Tongue now there is a post which implies that there are TWO webcasts today. One via KGSR an hour earlier and then one with Nettwerk America.

Anyone got a clue ? Think I'm gonna be ringing in sick if so.. quick reply private or here please I need to decide sooooooon !!

Loz,

Yes, they are different webcasts. To clear up the time business...

The KGSR webcast is on at 17:00 local (Austin) time (18:00 EST, 23:00 GMT)

The Nettwerk one is at 19:00 EST (00:00 GMT).

My brain hurts!!

Cheers,
Anselm

marvellous - thank you, thank you - no way am i going to work now and possibly missing 2 - sod that - nice one anselm.

p.s did anyone get a decent copy of the holmes broadcast ? i tried on dial-up and a few mates had broadband but we all saw the same thing - tres small and awful sound. still - at least it was webcast but obviously i'd like it as nice as possible ! fankoo.

Just to clear up the timezones issue (I hope)

Um. Eastern Standard Time (EST) for the USA is five hours behind GMT (Greenwich Mean Time - England)

Austin, Texas is one hour behind EST...

and the Pacific Coast (Seattle, California etc) is two hours further behind that.

(Footnote: I've figured this out but am still having trouble figuring out when to log on to talk to my Australian friends... I know that the east coast is either fifteen or sisteen hours ahead of my current timezone (EST, the USA) but I get confused with daylight savings and it is ALL TOO HARD... lol )

For those of us who can only watch for a few minutes, what do you think the chances are that this webcast will be archived? Have to go out for dinner with the boss and work mates, no way I can blow this off. Looks like I can catch the earlier webcast, but would also really like to see the second one as well! Greedy!

I hope the webcasts are archived too. I unfortunately have something to do this evening that I can't possibly get out of and will be unable to see either of them! *argh*

When I first heard about these webcasts, I figured, "Oh, they're being broadcast from NZ - that means they'll most likely be quite late at night for me and I will surely be home by then." And of course it turns out instead that they are at a perfectly reasonable time of day for me - it's just me who can't be around. Isn't that always the way? *laughs*

martine - ring in sick. i will be your partner and ring in on your behalf. job done.

dinner with the boss is bound to be crap - they always are - red tape, watching your step - sod that.

brownie - get out of it. i certainly plan to get totally out of it - my last HUGE private session before xmas. just rang work - bunch of twats. they're giving me hassle but y'know - laters to all that malarkey !!

Ok, maybe I am being a bit daft here, but are these different webcasts or just a simulcast being aired an hour later than the other? Cos the link for the KGSR webcast is on the NettwerkAmerica website (or so it seems from the URL).

Confused? I am !

Guess I will just tune in at 11 and see how it goes. A tip for users (at least Mac people) - open up RealOne and 'open' the following location -
http://play.rbn.com/?url=neilfinn/neilfinn/live/index.smil&proto=rtsp . Right now it gives you a 'not available' speil and pops up a window with a 'sound toy' (similar if not the same as the one on the website).

Thank god it's not an early morning cast. Phew!

Jen

Just to annoy and exasperate everyone ....
Have I got this right?
The webcast is not until midnight in the UK?
It's on NILFUN aswell as this american site? so I didn't have to download this realone player thingy?(and more than likely really wind up the hubby seeing as he thinks this machine is his?!!!!)

Can't wait!!!!

This is the best i could make of it all ....

Neil Webcast(s) Tonight

There's some confusion over webcasts tonight, as KGSR are having an 'exclusive' webcast at 5pm CST, and nettwerk (Neil's label) are listing a Neil webcast at 6pm CST. Either way, you'll need the (free) realplayer from real.com (the free player does exist, they normally hide it away though).

Times around the world
please, please, please double check these, i could be wrong!

there seems to be something going on at the moment, via the ksrg page, with last to know playing (studio version) and people walking around/setting up some instruments.

OH MY GOD!! I am listening to the soundcheck!!! I am so exiced that I have a computer that I can see this on! This has made my whole day!

heather

OUCH!!!

Yes, soundcheck.

Yes, more soundcheck needed, you're out on the right side. Is that Eddie?

human kindness !!

what a great song - it has so much more nuts when he does it live than on the album i reckon..

so i guess that is on the way ! nice. smack em hard emlyn

WHERE'D THE BIRDIE GO!!!

Someone stepped on the cable.

Phew, they're back

Lozza, have I told you lately that I love you?

Did I see Paul Crowther just now? And Liam? And of course, Neil?

I wish I could call in sick for my first referral appointment with the renal specialist this morning, but how could I possibly?! Ah well. Everyone, please fill me in on the details later.

Got this from KGSR re archives:

We are going to try and record the audio for archive.
We will not be able to archive the video.


Jody Denberg
KGSR Program Director

Oh no JF !!! Oh NOOOOOOO ! I nearly got fired for this !!!!!!

Sue

i think i just heard chunn doing the bassline to split ends - actually, might've been for you, im crap

i tell you what..

we need an instant link facility into the band here..

like - oi mike, give it a quick bit of that sweet dreams break..

or oi neil - let's have a quick burst of one step ahead..

know what i mean ? just a drunken thought...

Okay, if by some fluke I EVER get famous...and EVER have a live webcast...will someone PLEASE remind me not to stand in front of the camera during soundcheck and pick my nose?!

Does anyone know - can you record audio off these webcasts onto your computer?

Sue,

If you ever are famous, and have a webcast, OR... if you're ever at a baseball game, don't stand in front of a camera and pick your nose.

Regards,
Sue

Maybe....Chunn - stop teasing with STF riff !!

Is that Eddie as well? The old eyes ain't what they used to be.

What the.... What is Paul Holmes doing there ??

!!!

TIM!

Oh, be still my beating heart!

hee hee diego well spotted

incog - yeah go to your mixing stuff and select and have a tamper blimey maybe is on

Wrong Sue. MAN, you tell a man you love him and it goes to his head. He starts calling you another gals name.

Actually, I heard the dear lad.

Tee hee, I wonder if they know they're live?

MAN, WHERE'S THE BIRDIE AGAIN!!!


?

ok i need to go bed...if anyone fancies dropping the setlist/review my way (dave@sevenworlds.net) that would be greatly appreciated!

enjoy!

Thanks Lozza

is anyone else having enormous problems hearing this seamlessly? blips and bursts and cut outs, and i have Cable!
sounds like an album playing at 78rpm and skipping

likerain, same exact probs down here in LA. real player continually trying to refresh but same bad skipping and the visuals don't match whatsoever! hope they get together. anybody having any better luck?

what a crap quality it is! either seeing or watching, mostly no watching at all and if, the sound sounds like played backwards...

we're just chatting btw, if you want to join in, it's at Yahoo - just send me a Yahoo pm - to sillyheartism, that's me I'll let you in

Silke

I'm screaming profanities at my pretty Mac.

Why did they not stream this Quicktime? Wilco never has problems with their casts.

Hmmm...
I can't hear it correctly.

mine is streaming at 225 kbps. Why isn't there a slower option?

argh!

but...high speed users...in real player if you click tools and go to preferences and change your connection speed to something lower (i'm using isdn...) you get the sound and video at a somewhat decent quality.

maybe it'll get better

I can hear fine....maybe the gods are smiling on me? very few blips...

My good ness, is that Liam? with the beard... I hadn't seen a photo in a while....

try (and i cant promise this will work)
in realone under tools -> Preferences... set you connection to both to DUAL ISDN and restart the feed
(this from the guy at Nettwerk - cheers Jason)
it was pants to start with, now its just patchy.
grrrrr... why use a new technology when people struggle still with RealPlayer 7?!
anyways, have a good one folks
(at least i actually REMEMBERED this cast!)
jen x

quicktime is total crap and should go right now today bye see ya later

im on dialup and im getting the cuts and blips but i figured that was excess its a shame if broadband doesnt get it down proper

ps sue not sue - yeah i got the right one i think

ok - they're back...

Link

double happy. love this totally. my goodness the beers are really flowing now...

this one is working brilliantly.
that's so strange....

Argh, I only just came online - how much have I missed?

PS: I just got the webcast up, and the audio is great!

THAT'S ME!! I'm Anne Francis!!! he just did my request!!!! Log Cabin Fever! yipee!!!

Well, I'm getting the Nettwerk stream at 225k and the quality is fantastic...not a single dropout yet Unlike the first hour.

clarification - isn't this the hour they just broadcast from austin?

Yep...quality was really poor here in the UK.

you are a complete superstar for requesting log cabin fever and was it just me or did everyone drift off for 2 mins during that song and then check back in when he said time to break away

what a total bugger he 'ran out of words' and did not do the last chorus which says scared to show our colours to the world but at least it was ****ing great and what on EARTH is going on with this so-called ONE ALL promotion !?!?!!? One song so far and I love those but i'm not complaining !!

Why thank you Lozza...and yes, it did seem to wander there a bit. I thought it might be a difficult song to do, so I also requested Missing Person in a separate email....

whats the bloody email request address ?

MIND OVER MATTER !!

give it some nuts at the end - Mind Over Matter !!

or Breaking My Back ! YEAH !! But I'm too late

If you go to the NETT site that's broadcasting the live cast, there is an actual link to the requesting zpage, so to speak.
This is Bloody Brilliant!!!

Missing Person is also a fine call ! Especially the beefed up riff-a-rama version that Neil could so easily go into at any minute...

They should stay online tonight for another 2 hours coz i got at least one bottle to go...

Edit. Yes Mocker this is the ****ing bollocks.

I'll be sooooo excited by the time they finish I won't sleep!!!!!
Trying to log on to Yahoo , Silke, but no go!!!
It would be fun but, ....shall just ahve to enjoy the music instead, poor Addictedagain having to miss it.

Many thanks to everyone who posted how to get the video and audio working in synch--really helped out.
This is just fantastic---I have to go meet my boss for dinner now---I'm absolutely heartbroken, I'm really hoping this will be archived!!
Let me know if he does the Climber. I've requested it 3 times!
Cheers all!

have missed the whole b****y lot!
Message to myself: Modem in trash tomorrow!!

The stream seems to have gone a bit crazy now...anyone else got any problems? Missed the last few songs or so...

Yes, it's wonky for me too.

Dammit, I'm stuck at work and can't listen!!

Can any of you kind people post the song list?

Thanks!

Anselm, I'm cracking up n all, I think a few are.
Missing songs and chat here
like listening to that comic, the one with the busted Micerophone,.... remember the one I mean?

Quick...if you're using RealOne, go into 'Tools', then 'Preferences' then click on 'Connection' (left hand window) and reduce the quality, perhpas to SINGLE ISDN: it will be reduced in quality but at least you'll be able to see/hear it...

My connection had disconnected and it was taking forever to load so I figured it wasnt gonna come back on, so I went to get something and then at the exact moment I walked back in, it came back on and Neil said "Belinda in Sydney, G'day Belinda". I know it's hardly a big deal, but yay!
Sorry to everyone who's having trouble watching it, hopefully it will get archived.

Nice one Belinda! Well if anyone has heard or hears me mentioned later, please let me know as I think I'm missing a fair bit of now with dropouts...

Same here please!
If anyone hears Betsan!!!!
Cheers me Dears!!!

Absolute silence now for the last 10mins,
It's gone hasn't it ???
May aswell go to bed and cry myself to sleep.
For all that are still there, ENJOY!!
G'nite.
(It was good while it lasted)

my computer crashed and burned. i missed most of it. but it was nice to know that all of this joy was out there in the universe for a few hours.
