Berkeley Social Scene LIVE online some Tuesdays 9PM Pacific

[Lunkhead]

Berkeley Social Scene has a nice new practice space with fancy features like wifi, and a bathroom! We may stream our practices in case any crazy people want to watch us at work. Usually we practice Tuesdays at 9pm-12am Pacific time. Here's the URL:

I recommend using an ad blocking browser plug-in/add-on/extension/etc. when viewing ustream.tv (or justin.tv for that matter) to block the pre-roll ads.

Last night we set up a Google+ Hangout, that roymond joined for a bit. We may do Hangouts too or instead, not really sure yet.

There's some service that streams video feeds from rehearsal spaces of big acts polishing their set before a tour. It was like that last night. Except they were writing a song. But it was cool. I even have video now, so Google hangouts can be even more annoying to the band.

Oh hey, awesome, that sounds much better than the dilapidated shed you were in before. I'll have to bug you guys by showing up uninvited now and then.

We're hanging out in Google+. May see if I can stream on ustream too using the internal camera in my laptop. Whoo!

We're doing a Google+ Hangout of our practice.

Pfft. That's nice for people on G+.

I didn't wanna see your stupid band ANYWAY.

Oh right. Sorry fluffy! At least you can still use YouTube. Here's a song by Jonathan about how Google+'s name policy sucks:
