Listen to a concert on the phone | Rolling Stones Tour Dates
"Can't make it to Europe for the current tour by the Rolling Stones? No problem. Dial a toll-free number and listen to them perform all down the line in real time for $1.99 per seven minutes.
The British rockers are the first to use a new technology called Listen Live Now, which is backed by Hollywood talent firm Creative Artists Agency, tour promoter Live Nation, and veteran artist manager Marty Erlichman." [Yahoo News]

I hope this company fails miserably - firstly it involves Live Nation; secondly - 35 bucks to LISTEN to a concert is a joke.

i think this a great idea. it's the 21st century. you need to stay ahead of the game. go stones.

web streaming of shows is 21st century. paying to listen to a show on the phone isn't.

For 50 cent you can listen to my anus while I fart the guitar line from "Satisfaction."

Apparently they are also offering a service where they will fax you "live" black and white stills from the concert for only $5.00 per page!
