All Shows Now Advertising Popup Free Forever.

As per the title really - all show and radio session links are now totally free of advertising popups once again - and they're staying that way. The advertising server could have been a good idea - but ended up getting in the way of enjoying the music and actually making gigs inaccessible to some, so they're gone, and won't be coming back.

Now, if there's a show you want, just click on where it says to click, and save the file to your device. Simple. With shows from all these artists so far, what are you waiting for?!
Live and Loud! returns in early January with a remaster of a 1982 live show by Culture Club. Until then - Happy New Year.
