However, this is a great way to get your independent band heard as long as you advertise it correctly. It's all about media. Utilizing the tools at your fingertips, Myspace, Facebook, Twitter, etc.. The majority of the live shows that I attend is by connecting Facebook classes and then getting invites from the bands or venues events. If you are a band I would advise talking to the owner of the place you will be enjoying streaming your live show. Let the pub owner understand that this would be a great way to advertise their venue.
