Best television music show in the civilized world. Why isn't there a 'merican corollary? http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b006ml0l |

It's been good in the past but I haven't really enjoyed many of the acts the last few times I have watched. Pretty hit or miss. Not sure why there isn't a similar show in the U.S. other than Austin City Limits but that is usually just one or two bands. With all of the reality singing shows I don't think there is currently a place for it in the dumbed down U.S. marketplace. |

Another good one is NPR's Tiny Desk Concert series where the performer or band plays a 10-20 minute set right in the NPR offices. I have tried to stream the KEXP station from time to time at work with varying success. |
