Sorry if this was covered earlier, but I won't be able to attend Friday's live show due to a prior commitment.  So correct me if I'm wrong, but if I purchase the deluxe package, I'll still get the live and studio versions of the shows and all the extras even if I don't attend?

Yes for the live versions. According to one of the posts the live show downloads will be available by the following Monday.

If I head over to the show right now, I get connected with one of those generic "ustreamer-985" userids.

It looks like I can login to the Ustream.tv account I created for some previous live show, and thus use the /nick I reserved for that.

The web page also says "Chat with Twitter".  Are we (viewers) going to be sending questions in via both mechanisms?

I don't think the deluxe package your talking about includes the studio versions.  If I understand right you'll get recordings of the live version you can download, plus the live short and Q & A and the little extras, but you'd have to buy the studio version of the movie separate if you want it.  Someone correct me if I'm wrong there.

The studio version is a separate purchase. You are right.

We'll have some Twittery interaction, yes.

The reason you can get to that old Ustream chat system is because that's what we're using for the free short portion of the live show. After that we'll be switching to the PPV stream and you'll be out of luck unless you've bought a ticket.

Are we going to be able to buy passes at the last minute?

And just out of curiosity... you guys have the bandwidth... right?

Conor

Tickets should be available at the last minute, and probably into the beginning of the show. 

To answer the first question, yes, if you buy the deluxe pack, it is esentially just another way of "pre-ordering" the LIVE versions of the short and PO Dinos riff.  The Studio versions are not included.

Here is a question for someone. Is there a test page or something I could try that will replicate what the live show will be like? I would like to try to use the web browser on my ps3 and watch it on my regular TV instead of my monitor.

Just go to http://www.ustream.tv/

The show is broadcast using their technology, so anything that's streaming live from there will be the same as our show.  We just embed their video on our site.

It'll be available at the link which is given to you under My Account > My shows. We'll have a direct link the day of the show.

Heh.  Well, I've already bought the ticket.  My curiosity was over something much more mundane.  I just wanted to see if I can change the nickname that is used for any comments I send, or if I was stuck with one of the generic nicknames.    :D

This is great news as I want to watch it in my TV as well and not in my monitor. I need to hook up now and purchase my tickets for the upcoming show. Great! Goody!
:highfive:

Did you try that yet? I'd like to know how it works.
