This was my first time using Veep to watch and the concert was just as good as being there in person and the quality of the showing of the concert was amazing. I watched as I cooked my dinner and cleaned up the kitchen. This certainly was worth what I paid to watch at home. Let’s do this again next with a 50 cent concert perhaps.

I really want to love this app. And I want them to succeed because we need more services like this. I was going to sign up for a subscription because I wanted to watch Gary Clark Jr live but the stream was cancelled. It also said on the Apple TV app that Brandi Carlile at Redrocks was ‘available with subscription’ so I subscribed but it was not on demand. It just meant that when it was live it was available with a subscription. But it’s an expired concert with no on demand video and very misleading UI. I guess they just keep the key art there to show you that they did at one point have a concert stream of hers. My guess is because there is such a limited library they need to keep every concert tile up there, even when it serves no purpose. It’s frustrating because I purchased a subscription to watch that show, only to find out I cannot. Waste of money. It’s also extremely frustrating that I can’t just browse the entire library of artists to see what is available. There is a very limited amount of content discovery carousels on the app, so it forces the user to search for artists, mostly resulting in nothing because there is very little content. I’m really hoping more comes along. I’ll keep my eye out for concerts and buy tickets a la carte, but there is no way the subscription price is worth it for what is available now, especially since there is no way to even see how much content they actually have.

I was attempting to watch a concert put on by veeps and was unable to get audio or live action on the browser. It took over thirty minutes for customer support to begin to assist and the concert was almost half over before adequate help was given. I finally found that I would be better able to experience the concert on the veep app, on my own. Once I began to watch that on my own, things improved. However, every time a new song began, my screen turned sideways and became 1/3 size. Every time! Sometimes it happened more than once during the song! I’ve watched this same group in 2020 and 2022 through a different venue and had no problems at all. I would be very leery of giving veeps any of my money in the future.
