Online radio — namely *free* online radio — has taken a turn for the awesome lately with it’s wide-reaching, genre-mixing, in-depth focus on live music. It seems that I’m always seeing music bloggers linking to live in-studio sets by their favorite band or linking to the direct stream of the concert and that’s great for all of us. Whether it’s WOXY, NPR, WXPN, or KEXP, I hardly care. Point is: it’s awesome. Confirmed.
Here’s a bunch of stuff going on in the very near future…
