In partnership with a new company called CYA Live, the entire venue has been wired, from the stages to the green room, for high-quality recording and live streaming. The whole venue is "4K audio ready" and can handle 900 audio tracks simultaneously.
That's part of the plan in getting major bands to play a venue a fraction the size of their usual draw: The opportunity to stream and broadcast it anywhere in the world. Wekerle says Austin City Limits is a great example of what could be done, and says he's reached out to Pearl Jam about a potential underplay show or "rehearsal" before their March 18 concert at Scotiabank Arena. Other acts he says he's reached out to include Billy Idol, The Who and, as always, the Rolling Stones. Nothing is set yet.
