Tomorrow's news

Nothing beats seeing a great concert, and now with LiveFlash, concertgoers are able to relive their favorite shows over and over again. LiveFlash technology uses the soundboard audio from a show and uploads it to a USB wristband. The wristband contains MP3 files of the entire concert, and customers can upload the music to their computer or burn it to a CD. LiveFlash is easily reproduced (so there are no shortage worries) and can be purchased by fans after the show.

LiveFlash is a product of All Access Today, a fan services community and, according to Wristband Project Manager Chris Collins, artists such as Matchbox Twenty, Willie Nelson, Mary J. Blige and Ringo Starr are incorporating these wristbands into their shows. Deals with several other artists are in the works.

Wristbands for Matchbox Twenty’s latest tour cost $35 and were available approximately 15 minutes after the show ended at their recent stop at the Sprint Center in Kansas City, Mo. The show audio is great, but it’s only the beginning. By summer, All Access Today says it hopes the wristbands will be able to hold concert video, as well.
