Is it really being streamed live? Can't find it anywhere. SK

Yes it was tough to find on the site and the quality at least for me was not that great (you'd think they'd do better at a tech awards show!)but very long show; everybody knows all the music but nobody knows the faces behind it and the bad streaming made some of the intros drop out so it would take a while to know who was speaking (or wth they said). These awards were for technology developed for sound in movies, studios, stage and instruments. Todd got the Les Paul award at the very end so about 3 hrs into it. He made a nice speech and Jesse and Prairie and John Ferenzik and some other man whose name I did not catch played about 4 songs with him. Paul Schaeffer sort of presented the award and talked about Todd's career via video link. Todd played a red Les Paul Gibson I think, I'll have to check. He hugged his band members and then disappeared---there goes Todd...a great night for him I'm sure. I hope they archive this or put it on youtube. Great to see him get this recognition, he SO deserves it! :)
