Type into live chat to other fans, pay for a one-off gig and watch it on your computer or phone – that’s Stageit. Performers include Jimmy Buffett, Indigo Girls, Bonnie Raitt, Dave Graney and Clare Moore and Rick Springfield.

You can buy tickets as a present (Stageit has its own currency) and tip performers. One Stageit note is ten cents. Based in Hollywood, Stageit can be found @Stageit

Some shows are intimate, from the musician’s sitting room. Babies feature (because they can) as this photograph shows from Danika and the Jeb.

House concert Live Streams are not repeated or recorded – like a real gig. https://www.stageit.com
