With the increasingly widespread use of live streaming in the live music scene, bands continue to try to find new ways to engage and entertain their fanbase, and avid webcasters/spellcasters Umphrey’s McGee have just announced that later this afternoon in their ongoing effort to allow their fans to “unlock access to face-melting rock,” they will offer up a stream of keyboardist Joel Cummins, while he “enjoys a right, proper rest” in his hotel bed.

“We have our final show of our Milwaukee tonight,” says guitarist Brendan Bayliss. “And that tends to leave us all tuckered out. So we thought that, along with the regular stream of the show, we could give ours fans a bit more of an intimate look into the road life of the band. Not only will Joel occasionally scratch himself in his sleep but spoiler alert : We often find that 30-40 minutes into his average nap, Joel starts mumbling. It’s about as riveting as some of his solo piano work and I say that with all sincerity.”

Umphrey’s has been experimenting with technology that would simulcast the vivid dreams of band members but the equipment imploded following an experiment gone awry involving bass player Ryan Stasik, handerpants, a dessicated minotaur horn and popular Hello Kitty sidekick Deery-Lou.
