Quality is outstanding. Only found out about this an hour ago. Would have expected this on Sky Arts or something. Bryan Adams on now followed by Stevie Wonder.

Tomorrow Night's line up:

Ends tomorrow by the looks of it.

Now if this was on a conventional TV station I probably would have watched it from the very beginning, but I knew nothing about it being broadcast on YouTube.

Are these things common on YT, then?

Not common, I'm pretty sure this is the first time they've done something of this size and for this long, but they have been doing live coverage of lots of events for a while.

Also, it's been advertised at the top of every YouTube page since they started airing it. Easily missed if you're only watching embedded links, I guess.

Rock in Rio Lisboa & Madrid is spread out over 4 weekends. Two for Lisbon ending tomorrow and then two for Madrid at the end of this month.

It's starting to be. They aired the last two Coachella's and they're streaming Lollapalooza, Austin City Limits and some others as well this year.

I watched Metallica on this a good few days ago. Not my thing really, their music, but it was fantastic. Obviously, not like being there, but you could tell it was epic.
