ITUNES FESTIVAL
itunesfestival.com

Did you see Norah Jones at iTunes Festival in London last Sunday, September 10th? What? You say you don't live in London/Can't afford a ticket/Forgot about it. If you have an iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad, or Apple TV, you can see the entire show for free. The video is professional shot and produced and the only problem is that you can only see it for a limited time. I downloaded the application last year, but after a while, with no new contents, I deleted it. Now that the season for iTunes Festival is back, I re-downloaded it.

There are a lot of great musicians on the iTunes Festival showcase that I will be checking out. One of them is Norah Jones. If you haven't figured it out, Jones is on tour for her latest album, Little Broken Hearts, which was released earlier this year. She's doing a slew of dates*, and hopefully, I will be covering her appearance at the Orpheum with Cory Chisel.

* In other Jones/Music Festival news, Norah Jones will be part of the line-up at the 2012 New Yorker Festival (hear appearance will be on October 5 at SIR Stage37).
