Normal American Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 As i post this my husband has been watching live Bruce Springsteen night after night via Periscope. Does anyone know if Wilco allows this? Has anyone used it? It seems like a great tool to see what is happening as a band tours the world. Apparently a person can broadcast live for a period of time (15 minutes?) and then someone else can do it. If you have the app, or a website that links (like Backstreets does for Bruce....) you can watch 15 minutes segments amounting to a full show! Seems awesome! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
brownie Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 I don't see how any band could prevent it. I watched a bunch of Stone Roses shows on Periscope as they were happening back in June. I just used the Periscope app to find the broadcasts. It wasn't sponsored by the band, it was just random fans broadcasting bits and pieces. Great fun! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
watch me fall Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 Not sure about the 15 minutes, because I watched both Pearl Jam Fenway shows on periscope, mainly from one scoper. And multiple people scope during the show. Nothing the band can do about it unless they specifically ask people not to and even then I doubt people would stop. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nalafej Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 You shouldn't be limited to 15 minutes. I've watched entire shows on periscope. Which I feel guilty about because when you are at the show it sucks t have somebody near you periscoping... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

nalafej Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 Why does it suck? Often, their camera is blocking the view or their arms are blocking my view as they hold up the camera. No problems if they hold it in front of their body though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
