TV Tuesday: Live Summer Concerts on YouTube and VEVO
Amanda Cey | July 27, 2010VEVO and YouTube have once again partnered with American Express to launch a five-concert series of live performances this summer. “Unstaged: An Original Series from American Express” will kick off with a live-streamed performance by Arcade Fire at Madison Square Garden on August 5. Earlier this year YouTube and VEVO united with American Express to stream both the Alicia Keys and The National performances which contributed to the decision to create another concert series.
The summer series will feature the work of several acclaimed directors, and some cool social media features like “Choose Your Cam” which will allow viewers to control their experience by switching between camera streams. Other performances will include The Roots and John Legend.
Do you think this concert series will help establish YouTube and VEVO in the online music community? What performances would you like to see streamed?
Take a look at the teaser for the live-streamed concert by The Nationals in Brooklyn last May.
