Nicecast

Am I really going to try and play music live, online? It certainly seems so. I spent quite a bit of time last night trying to figure out Nicecast, a software app that allows one to broadcast on a Shoutcast stream (Shoutcast is right up there with Pandora, btw, in terms of the musical joy it provides me). In any case, I was listening to a friend of mine play last night (one of his patented 3 hour marathon sessions) and he started trying to explain to me how to join him on the stream. I found it much more complicated than I would generally like, but I suppose I will figure it out eventually. In fact, I am supposed to figure it out by next Friday, so that I can join him on a few songs. Stay tuned. I will definitely have something to say about the experience after the fact.
