Since there’s no Glastonbury
live stream this year, I decided to do these quick posts about a
couple other live streams. But of course, there is nothing like
Glastonbury, and Coachella line-up could feel a little disappointing
for those mostly interested in indie/alternative music (not to
mention jazz, for example). The absence of Pitchfork Festival will be
definitely felt this year, however, we can still prepare for
Primavera Sound and Fuji Rock.
The
good things about Coachella livestream: they are broadcasting every
stage and the stream is available for free on YouTube, without any
geoblocking drama. However – from my experience, the broadcast is
often unsatisfying. The hosts can be annoying, the performances
shortened, not always broadcast in full, if deemed „not worth it”.
Very often, the stream is delayed and not actually live – I wrote
this post with original hours in mind, but I already corrected it
when the live stream schedule was announced.
On
the other hand, Glastonbury has a geoblock and it always starts late,
without broadcasting earlier acts. So the perfect festival live
stream doesn’t exist.
This
is my recommended live stream schedule, but I’d like to note: this
year, I won’t be watching most of the festival live. The line-up
isn’t just as good anymore! To fullfill the tradition, I think I
can stay for Friday stream, since it’s the most interesting of the
three. I also know how to watch all the performances on demand –
they are recorded and shared on Reddit (if you are interested,
contact me through e-mail mawoj93@gmail.com
or social media and I can tell you how to find it). So I have less
motivation to stay at night., but I think I will tonight.
