Went to a pretty well known dead bar (Melvin Seals & JGB play there a -lot-) and 2 hours into the show they kept clicking random stuff on nugs while running the PREVIEW - buy now - on YouTube and cutting to random different songs every 10 minutes or so.
Nobody would really say what was going on besides technical problems but from everything I saw, it seemed more to me like they were trying to pass it off to the less eagle-eyed as being the actual show, and literally just randomly clicking around on nugs to placate everyone else.
I haven’t seen anything about there being issues with the stream, so, I’m thinking they just got a packed house with false advertising. People were leaving by the half dozen every 5 minutes and I’m kind of surprised there wasn’t a riot, honestly.
So… what do you think?
Yeah I dunno. The screen was pretty hard to see to begin with but it didn’t seem to follow a pattern you would expect of like… log in > go to some kind of “purchased shows page” (I’ve never actually used nugs so I dunno exactly) > click on the show > get an error or anything like that. It was more like clicking around in the menu a handful of times and then just going back to youtube and loading up a different part of the same video. It was just super weird and janky.
