AMV001 Posted November 16 Share Posted November 16 (edited) Noticed a new channel on Freeview yesterday- GIGS. Seems to be showing only live concert films. Only had time to watch Garbage live in Denver last night (with Eric Avery on bass) but there seems to be a full schedule of various genres. The only issue is that its a data channel rather than broadcast (basically the same as streaming) so the ads cut in randomly and inappropriately i.e interrupting the songs, which is a shame. Apologies if this is old news to others, I only saw it on the channel guide last night so its certainly new to my area.

tauzero Posted November 16 Share Posted November 16 https://www.mediamole.co.uk/entertainment/broadcasting/information/freeview-full-channels-list-epg-numbers-and-local-differences_441854.html It would appear to be channel 284. Must see if it's on Virgin. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMV001 Posted Sunday at 12:20 Author Share Posted Sunday at 12:20 (edited) After doing a bit of browsing, it seems to be something to do with Universal Music Group. All the artists are UMG artists. There is a similar YouTube channel, which will explain why it feels like a streaming service- https://www.youtube.com/@GigsMercuryStudios Edited Sunday at 12:21 by AMV001 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
