This kind of thing could be huge for people like me who live in relatively remote areas. The world is shrinking due to the affordability of air travel, but even more so now because of the initiative of some internet users.
Chad, I didn't realise your father set this up. He did a great job IMO.


Chris I agree...the technology is really coming around...making this kind of thing so much easier to do.  I had a gig back in 1999 streamed live over the net...but to do it then required WAY WAY more firepower and people involved. 
With this gig, the other night, my father decided to come out and hear us perform (we now live in the same town so it's nice to visit often)...and because he is at least half geek, he decided to fool around and rig up his camera and laptop via the venue's internet connectivity and just see what would happen.
Tons of possibilities....!!!

Bart, sorry for the delay.  The venue wasn't wireless (I don't think).  The laptop was actually connected straight to an ethernet connection on a nearby wall.  I agree that going through a mobile wireless connection might be pretty hairy.  I don't know.    I know uStream has a required minimum thru-put in terms of speed, etc.  So, it would have to meet those requirements in order to broadcast.

I actually tried using uStream with my laptop and phone/modem ... and it worked well.
