Title: Sirius to air ReAct Now
Post by nmf016 on Sep 8^th, 2005, 10:23pm

I found this article. I thought this would be of interest to non-US people who would like to at least be able to hear the Goos play (although two broadband channels will apparently be airing video). You can get a free trial of Sirius at www.sirius.com

Thanks for the info, I was wondering if I was going to be able to listen at all!! :thumbsup:

Just one question, though - does ET mean Eastern Standard Time or something else? If it is EST, it's still midnight onwards here, but at least it's the weekend so I can listen, woohoo! ;D

In the sticky post at the top of the board, it also says you can watch the show over broadband cable. So if you have fast internet you may be able to watch the show instead of just listening to it.
