One step closer to cutting the cord to my satellite. Hulu is going to offer the June 1st, Dave Matthews Band, live streaming on their site. The biggest thing that has kept me from canceling my cable/satellite is not having a live stream of events on TV. I am excited about the possibilities that this will open up with streaming events.

It’s a good fit for Hulu’s first live concert broadcast–the site’s first live streaming event was a presidential debate last October. The Dave Matthews Band’s original Gen-X and Gen-Y fan base is exactly the demographic of 20- and 30-somethings–though not necessarily tech-savvy ones–who would tune into a concert stream online. And conveniently, the date of the show is the day before the band’s long-anticipated new album, “Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King,” hits stores online and offline.
