Stones on the phone

Fans can hear concerts over fee-cast

Fans of the Rolling Stones no longer need to buy a ticket to see the band live in concert.

For the remainder of their "A Bigger Bang" tour, fans can access a Stones' show through new technology called Listen Live Now!, which allows users to listen to a concert via any phone line.

Listen Live Now!, a Los Angeles-based company, will offer live fee-casts beginning today at the Rolling Stones' Paris show and continuing through their Sept. 3 concert in Horsens, Denmark. Fans can tune in from any phone and listen live for a fee of $1.99 USD per seven-minute feed. Up to one million fans will be able to listen in on selected concerts.

The Rolling Stones are the first to fee-cast their concerts over telephone lines.
