Hulu is streaming Austin City Limits Festival
Shut-ins, penny-pinchers, misanthropes and claustrophobics rejoice.
If you didn’t splurge on buying a pass to this weekend’s Austin City Limits Festival, or were just planning to stay inside to avoid the crowds/heat/rain/sunshine/swine flu/noise/insert reason here, but still want to catch the music without standing on your friend’s porch in South Austin, hulu has you covered.
The online site that offers hundreds of TV shows and movies online will be live streaming the ACL Fest all weekend.
Each day of the fest, the stream will begin at 1 p.m.. While the full list of streaming shows is not out yet, it appears online viewers will not be stuck with bottom-of-the-barrel acts, as hulu is offering the following teases:
- Dave Matthews Band
- The Dead Weather
- Ben Harper and The Relentless7
- John Legend
- Raphael Saadiq
- The Knux
- Bon Iver
- Thievery Corporation
- Medeski Martin & Wood
- Andrew Bird
The list of sets being streamed will be announced on the site each day.
If you’re wondering what the shows will look like, hulu ran a similar stream of the Dave Matthews Band at the Beacon Theater in June, which you can check out below. Hee-haw.
