Steve Winwood - Live Concert Stream - May 19/07
We are pleased to announce that, in cooperation with The Country Channel, we will be offering a live stream of Steve Winwood's performance at Countryside Rocks on Saturday, May 19.
This concert, at the historic Highclere Castle, will benefit the Countryside Alliance, which works for everyone who loves the countryside and the rural way of life. Toward the end of Steve's set with his own band, Eric Clapton will join Steve for a performance of several classic numbers - their first live collaboration in decades. Don't miss this chance to watch a historic musical event live from your own desktop!
How To Watch:
Steve and his band will take the stage at approximately 9 pm GMT (4 pm EST). Shortly before that time, a new banner will show up on the home page of SteveWinwood.com (www.SteveWinwood.com). Clicking that banner will load the Windows Media stream.
On Windows systems, Windows Media Player should automatically begin playing the stream. Mac and Linux users also will be able to play the stream but may need to configure their systems to do so. We recommend that all users consult our "Frequently Asked Questions" section (www.countrychannel.co.uk/faq.htm) and review their system setups in advance of the concert. In the current concert schedule, Steve is slated to appear after Bryan Ferry.

I live in the countryside in England and the Countryside Alliance certainly do not represent me.
They are an organisation dedicated to overturning the ban on chasing and tearing apart wild animals for fun.
Why does Steve, who writes about love and life want to support such an awful organisation?
I am really sickened by this.
Dear Anonymous,
I have a personal policy of differentiating musicians and their politics. If I did otherwise, there would be very few musicians whom I could say I still admire fully and completely.
I do, however, regret the offence you have taken from this posting.
D.D.
