U2 live on YouTube!

In an age when stupid restrictions from content owners prevent you from watching what you want on the Net because you are not in the right “geographical region”, it’s great to know pop group U2 is streaming its concert from the United States live on YouTube.

If you are reading this now on a Monday afternoon in Singapore, the concert is going on live at the Pasadena Rose Bowl in California – the scene of many a great concert, including my favourite ’80s band Depeche Mode.

Can you believe this:

  • This is U2 and it’s free
  • This is a live concert, so you are joining the 90,000+ who are watching it live at the Rose Bowl, interacting through Twitter or the comments page
  • The quality is great – not  your usual YouTube stuff, but well streamed and buffered to ensure smooth and sharp images
