AAm Stars à Domicile LIVE chat party! Saturday Feb. 21, 2009 @ 4pm EST/1pm PST

[Ruroshen]

Hey everybody! For the third AAm Fan Commentary Track, we've decided to change it up a bit. Rather than watch a concert recording, we're going to weigh in on Alizée's two appearances on the French television program Stars à Domicile ("Stars at Home") from 2001 and 2003.

The reasons for this are twofold. Firstly, from the discussions I've read here and elsewhere over the past several months, Lili's episodes of SAD (wow, now that's an unfortunate acronym) hold a very special place in the hearts of many fans. Personally speaking, watching her 2001 appearance is what pushed me over the threshold from being simply Lili-curious into a full-fledged fan.

Secondly, and maybe more importantly, both videos are readily available right here in AAm's super-awesome spectacular video section. Hopefully this will make it easier for more of you to access the video and join in, or simply watch and follow along once it hits the podcast feed. You can find the 2001 episode here, and the 2003 episode here.

(One thing I would strongly recommend, if you are planning to join in...or even if this is just a video you plan to watch more than once...would be to download the video to your PC and watch it in an FLV player, rather than streaming it directly from AAm. If you're using Firefox, the Download Helper extension makes it easy to download .flv files to your hard drive right from your browser. My preferred FLV player of choice is (duh!) FLV player--it doesn't have many bells and whistles, but it's simple and easy to use-- but there's plenty of free programs available on the web for either task.)

"How do I join?" you ask? It's actually pretty easy. All you need is a headset & mic (or just a mic and your computer speakers), and to download the Ventrilo client. Then you configure a few settings (really easy to do), connect to the server, and you're off to the races.

The settings for the Vent server that Jung has set up for AAm are as follows:

Once you're in, all you have to do is click on the 'Video Commentary' room to join, and press the left CTRL key to talk!

The date and time are still tentative. I'm not married to them by any means. So if you'd like to request a change, speak up below! Whatever works for everybody works for me!

Questions? Concerns? Problems setting up or connecting to Vent? Go ahead and ask below. I promise I won't make fun of you...much.

Thanks guys! Hope to see everybody there!
