Downloadable concerts
I recently discovered that NPR has quite an extensive rock/pop/folk music section on their website. This includes the weekly show All Songs Considered, which I haven't listened to much but seems sorta like a more-NPR-sounding version of Sound Opinions.
But the really cool part is that they have downloadable recordings of full concerts, including:
Metric
(The) Gossip
Moby
... among others that I'm still exploring.
Oh yeah, and NPR provides podcast links to all this music, in seemingly endless permutations.
(By the way, Carrie Brownstein of Sleater-Kinney is part of the NPR music staff, which is especially amusing when she's covering the Gossip show as a reporter/fan and Beth Ditto gives her a shout-out from stage as an inspiration.)
Oh, and just because this song came on after I listened to the Gossip show, I have to add that no matter what the haters say, Courtney Love rocks.
