To help freelance gig crews who work in Northampton's concert halls they are live streaming a ten artist show of bands and solo musicians.
The concert halls have been dark for over a year.
It's been a year since we've looked across across a crowd.
Gig production staff are completely out of work.
So stream on with a crowd fund.
A day's wage's for the 10 engineers would be nice to start with,
so if you're in to live music help us out.
If we do really well, we'll help out some of the more hard up venues with some kit.
