Lost Concerts

The Lost Concerts website, where you will find here are all part of the live broadcast recorded live at Music TV from 1996 to 2003 when the last broadcasts went out.

OnlineTV was the first company to be devoted to broadcasting live concerts. After contracting several of the best venues in New York City and London there were some 40 live concerts per week. Some of the bands were horrible and others were gems. Royalty played live while meat metal splattered on the stages. There were all kinds.

What makes this concert series provocative is that it is a glimpse of almost every band that passed through these venues doors from 1998 to 2003. An actual slice of music timeline.

With such popular venues in New York City like Spiral Lounge, Under Acme (or Acme Underground), Brownies, CBGB and more the broadcasts had a wide appeal. The UK provided 2 great venues in the 12 Bar Club on Tin Pan Alley and the Bull and Gate in Kentishtown.

From the incredible Keane band and The Libertines from the UK to Cracker and Har Mar Superstar in the USA came 1000’s of band concerts that have been stored for more than a decade.

Now these concerts have been taken out of storage and are being sorted and made into DVDs for your pleasure.

Did your band play at any of the venues we filmed? Check our database with a quick search and see if your band name is there. Sometimes you may have played on dates we were filming but did not sign the release for broadcast. In those rare cases there is no record of your bands playing and we cannot make a DVD from our archives.

You can order the top level band Videos from Ricks Music Archives. If you order a Video from your band we can post them to the Ricks Music Archives and/or the Video Seconds website. Just let us know and we can make some kind of deal for you.

We welcome all inquiries. Remember we can make your bands video into DVD from our database or you can supply us with your video. We can do just about any format and our prices are very reasonable.

All concerts listed here have license agreements signed by the band and are legal for sale and distribution. They are not legal to share or upload by users to share services nor are they bootlegs.
