Site says the broadcast ends "about 3:00 AM, NYC time."

That's about an hour and fifteen minutes away...probably worth the $3.

Get out the popcorn.

Thanks for the suggestion. After reading the first couple of these reviews, I think I'll stick with the camcorder: http://download.cnet.com/Freecorder/3640...94257.html <-- downloads other things I don't want

This group that's up there now is jamming. All instrumental. In fact, apart from that old guy singing a bit of one song, there have been no singers.

This group that's up there now is jamming.

They had been jamming for awhile when I began recording them using my phone. They went on for another 11 minutes. At one point everyone dropped out but the piano player (he had an extended solo). Then two horn players walked into the stage area for the first time and the rest of band joined in.

Now some others are up and it's more mellow.

---

I think the club manager is talking to Haley.



But I'm not sure because he has a drink in his hand.

---

Singer taking the stage. Not singng. Haley is not in her seat. Did they leave? Or...

---

I think I may have seen her taking a seat behind where they had been.

---

The man I thought might be the manager -- because of his attire -- is playing the saxophone right now.

The stream is now suffering a few repeated glitches...buffering, etc.

---

Just saw Keith walk past the front row then behind the keyboard player. I thought he might have had a jacket in his hand. It looks like he's on the far side now talking to someone.

See him there above the piano player:



Are they going to perform? Stream is working again but it's near the time they gave for the cutoff. Since they use a third-party it may go dark even as the show goes on.

That could be Keith's reflection in a mirror. They may have moved into a line for the next set of performers. Or they may have moved to get a better view.

I think this guy may have been on keys and drums tonight. Let me tell you, he can't sing. He's scatting. Not especially well to my mind.

---

Keith, five minutes ago:

"Still going hard."

---

The musicians are packing up now.

The man in the jacket was in charge.

[Miguel]

They turned out the lights.

Now the sound cut off.

Now the feed.

Aww too bad Haley didnt sing. Kind of felt like we were spying on them. Thanks miguel for the updates and pictures.

[Miguel]

I wish she had. The sound was excellent (good tone; loud and clear) and I was just listening to it on my laptop computer. Usually I have to rely on my other computer that has an external sound system to hear things that well.

---

A small taste of Smalls recorded using my cellphone. If you enlarge it full-screen, you can see Haley and Keith grooving to the music near the beginning and briefly at the end.
