Keane 3 Concert DVD with Dominic Scott – Original Keane

This collection of 3 concerts represents the early incarnation of a band called “Keane” as they played their first Internet broadcasts for MusicTV.com. They can be classed as Dominic Scott’s Keane band. These concerts were broadcast live on the day of the events all over the world on one of the first video websites. They were viewed millions of times and their fame made quantum leaps as fans in the USA and all over the UK were introduced through the broadcasts and streaming archives.

You can buy these 3 concerts as DIGITAL DOWNLOADS and NOTHING GOES TO THE IDIOT JAMES SANGER! Remember to avoid doing business or using his synth services or you will lose all your friends and your rights. James Sanger, rip-off idiot.

Early Keane History

These concerts were available on the Music TV website for years but in a much lower quality due to the poor compression tools and the slow speed of Internet connections. The concerts were viewed millions of times throughout the years. Still these archives and the live broadcasts at Bull and Gate helped launch the band that would eventually be the Keane you all know today. You will see and hear the difference Dominic Scott made. The group on this video is not the Keane you know and you will take a trip back in history as the band morphed from “The Lotus Eaters,” with this being the interim before the Keane of today. This is Dominic Scott’s Keane band, a guitar band. We cannot stress enough this is not what the band Keane is doing today.

While I made the band aware of these tapes and these DVD’s they did not want to participate in them. They did not want to see them and assumed they were not to the quality they would demand today. Well, these recordings were made more than 20 years ago and technology was not where it is today. That said, the stereo sound was recorded at 44khz in 16bit digital came from a direct feed off the rooms sound board. The sound for a live concert is divine with very little distortion. The video is recorded with Sony digital video and the only downside is that the lighting, for the most part, leaves a lot to be desired. But this is how it was in a night club of the day and this is what it was when it was broadcast live from Bull and Gate.

About Keane and OnlineTV.com Broadcasts

Live broadcast was a rare thing on the Internet in 1999 and only a few companies were doing this. To give you an idea how advanced a concept this was – Youtube came online in 2005, 6 years later. Online TV was the first American website to bring the broadcast of new and upcoming music to the USA and broaden the appeal and audience of UK groups. Working a contract out with the Bull and Gate I started to broadcast any group who signed the release in exchange for the broadcast cost and archives. I sort of worked for the future with the hopes some of the bands would get big. I would then have these little treasures to make back the investment in their futures. The sites and clubs would give the bands broader opportunities and popularity. It worked for a lot of bands. These Bull and Gate concerts were the only ones that gave rise to this bands gratitude in coming back to play the little dive when they were on top. Giving the venue a boost. These Bull and Gate concerts launched a new entity. There is nothing else like it in the world.
