My friend (He writes code for Microsoft) refuses to install real player. He calls it a virus. You just have to make sure you do advanced installation and tell it that it can only associate itself with real audio/video files. Nothing else. You should ALWAYS do advanced install for any program, just cause there'll be some shitty riders attached to things a lot of times.

i always do that too, but even if it didn't take over my system, it probably wouldn't work well. the experience i've had with it is that it either never plays the files (even in RealPlayer format) or it plays them as if though it was being projected from 1950's TV

Yes, you always do advanced setup for real player. You should do that for most every media player, quicktime, windows media player, music match, anything because they will like to associate everything, even winamp does it.

Anyways, I got confirmation!!!!!!!!!!!!

Open mic is streamed at this adress (that I already posted)

http://greatdome.net/tv/

Right now it shows a prerecorded open mic. BUT, at about 9 pm Central Time, it will switch to live!

Again, the adress is

http://greatdome.net/tv/

I will hopfully play as close to 9 as possible. They will announce me as Nick Roberts the Ranting Thespian (like usual

).

(I will be playing one of my best originals, it will be the second song)

Ok, I am at the Union. I find out my time in about 30 minutes. I will post the time once I know. Hope this works!

WRONG PAGE!!!!! I was given the wrong adress. The video will be streamed on http://www.greatdome.net/ The real player on that page will broadcast it live. If you get some crappy what looks like radio interview, you need to delete the cache (shouldn't happen, though). That will close IE, then go back, and it should stream live. This shouldn't happen, though, since you guys havn't been to the page before. Anyways, again, the stream is on

Alright. Not a lot of musicians showed up tonight (which is odd, since they normaly have a lot). I am going to be on around 9:20. It's 9:00 right now. I get to play an extra song or two, so look out!

thanks CWMCALL, it was the best response from open mic that I have ever got. Did no one else see it? (at least it worked for one).
