barhouse TV
posted by Marc
on Sunday 08 Feb 09 at 20:59
Barhouse TV is a LIVE visual and audio broadcast that streams from the inside of barhouse eaturing bands, acts and DJs all playing live from the stage & dj booth.

It also features the crowd & dancing (good & bad).

The broadcast will be streamed live courtesy of local Chelmsford online radio station: www.roughtempo.com. check them out for guest mixes from the likes of Leeroy Thornhill (Prodigy), Cut La Roc, Atomic Hooligan and Trevor Rockcliff + more.

This is the first time an Essex venue (and possibly UK venue!?) has ever broadcast their gigs LIVE on a regular basis. And is also one of the only music venues that broadcasts both live bands & cutting edge DJs.

The idea of barhouse TV is to provide a ‘live club experience’ to people whilst in the comfort of their own homes, and also give people a chance to be part of a barhouse night no matter where they are in the UK or overseas.


To view barhouse TV please go to: www.roughtempo.com/barhouse.html

times of viewing are:
8pm – 11pm Tuesday to Thursday
9pm – 3am Friday & Saturdays
