So just to clarify for us UK minians, do we put BBC2 on at 9pm and then press the red button? I believe so. Should work on any BBC channel I think?

WTF is the red button. We don't have that in Canada. I always think it sounds faintly magical.

Which one is it? But how does it work? You press it and you get a whole other channel? Do you get to select what you wanna watch on the red button or does it just stream something in real time so you have to catch it at the beginning?

Do you get to select what you wanna watch on the red button or does it just stream something in real time so you have to catch it at the beginning? It gives you access to different things depending on what the program is. For example: If I'm watching Champion's League Football on Sky Sports, I can press the red button and it gives me access to different games I might prefer to watch. On this occassion, pressing the red button on any BBC channel enables you to watch the NGHFB gig live. There's different things on different channels.

It's great on BBC at Glasto time. Instead of watching headliner shit like Beyoncé you can switch over and watch other acts from that day instead.

It's funny, i have just had a cousin and his friend over from Canada, they live in a place called Port Credit, think it's near Toronto, anyway they pressed the red button by accident, and the utter joy on their faces when a new channel feature appeared was priceless. Ahem.....carry on people

So you can either watch the gig on your TV by pushing the red button or you can watch the live stream on their homepage? Is it for UK only?

Can we use a proxy, I don't have a clue about such things?

Wow - that's really good. I thought it would only be around an hour or so. I bet Freaky Teeth gets missed out.
