    Do you guys ever use this to watch live streamed concerts or whatever? Man, I wish this was available a few years ago. I've watched like ten Rush concerts on this Rush tour alone from different fans streaming the concert. I watched the Calgary Rush show last night from a fan who streamed the whole thing. I dunno who wants to stand there shooting periscope video a whole concert...but they do it. And, the audio and video is pretty good. The audio and video from last night's show was excellent!

    I'm just wondering how many people have caught on to this phenomenon? Want to see your favorite bands in concert...find the periscope feed. You no longer have to miss the show. Sure, it's not the same thing as being there but pretty damn close.

    It's a cool app. I follow a couple comedians and artists and see them backstage and in daily life.

    I always see comedians on twitter talking about it.

    Same.

    Some ESPN personalities use it as well. Very cool to see behind the scenes action.

    Jenny Dial Creech used it during the playoffs to show some of the Rockets warming up

    I've used it a few times. Vida Guerra had a nice stream, but I dont think she does it anymore. Also chanced onto a periscope of a dude getting jumped by 5-6 other guys. That was crazy.
