AKUS Live Tuesday!
Alison Krauss and Union Station will give a very special live performance and interview on SIRIUS Satellite Radio tomorrow (Tuesday, December 14th) at 3PM Eastern. As a testament to the wide-ranging music that Alison made over the years, this unprecedented event will be simulcast on 3 different SIRIUS channels: New Country/31, Bluegrass/37, and Folk Town/38, and will last at least an hour.
You can email any questions you'd like to ask Alison or the band to requests31@sirius-radio.com. Aside from being on SIRIUS, DISH Network Satellite TV folks can listen on channels 6031, 6037, or 6038. Also, anyone can listen free for 3 days at sirius.com; a listen button is at the top of the page.
I read this on the CMT board, so I'm not sure how accurate it is, but thought I would post just in case!

Holy cow, that's tomorrow! Thanks Candi! I hope it's accurate!
Can someone (Doug) record that part?
I have 2 finals tomorrow and might not get to listen to it. Plus, I am not a Sirius subscriber... and I've done the free 3 day thing before for the IBMA awards... I guess if I get to listen to it, I could always sign up as my mom, and use a different email address. lol

Did anyone else catch the Sirius broadcast today? I was laughing so hard! I would have enjoyed more music, but it was so amusing listening to all their humor!! They only played maybe 4 or 5 songs. They were great! I love how AKUS sounds good live and on record. Not too many bands these days can do that. Well, bluegrass bands can, but not many country or anything else for that matter.

I listened to it....... instead of studying for my final..... but that's ok, because as soon as the broadcast was over at 3, I ran out the door and took my final. I think I did good. Hey, I wasn't about to miss AKUS Live! Thanks so much for telling us about it, Candi! You rock! I sent in a request and a question but they used neither. I was kinda annoyed that they only used like 3 emails. If I am correct in recalling.... they played Unionhouse Branch, Goodbye is All We Have, Restless, Rain Please Go Away, Baby Now that I Found You, and Man of Constant Sorrow. They could have played a lot more if that guy wouldn't have kept saying his own name, and kept going on and on about how they were broadcasting over 3 stations on Sirius. OK! WE GET IT! Once was enough, thank you.  Anyways... I'm glad I got to hear it. Alison sure likes those boots she's wearin' today, huh Candi?!  ;D |

You've gotta love Sexy Boots! I'm sure every woman has a pair of sexy boots! I know I have like 3 or 4, but I would be even more excited if I owned a pair I had just bought in NYC!!! Go Alison! LOL

Sorry that I missed the broadcast. I had to run to the Atlanta airport and back and didn't get back home until it was over.. I thought that I had it timed OK, but you never know about Atlanta traffic.
Sounds like it had the kind of interview stuff in it I like to hear. Anything would have been been better than the interviewing done on the morning shows last week. If anyone happened to have recorded the broadcast on casette or digitally, I would be happy to convert it and upload it so everyone can access it.

According the the other board: "Anyone who missed the show or those who want to catch it again, it'll be on New Country SIRIUS 31 Saturday at 6pm Eastern, and then again at 12 noon on Sunday. sirius.com to listen!" I hope that answers your question Doug.  |

I have the interview available for download at: homepage.mac.com/zdje13/FileSharing12.html I trimmed down the songs again and even with that it is a 43 MB file, but since they were live performances you may want the long version with the entire songs. Let me know and I will be happy to send you a CD. I'll be out of town until after Christmas, so it may be a 10 days or so before I get something for you. Have a Merrry Christmas, Doug |
