Title: Anyone else having trouble accessing 40th Ann. NMA gig up at themill.tv website?
Post by: 8 on November 12, 2020, 05:41:00 AM
Wanted so much to watch the 40th Anniversary gig's stream a fourth time, but this time I'm having serious difficulty doing so, at themill.tv (https://themill.tv/?p=6126).  Everything went perfectly smoothly last week, but tonight I can't even figure out where  and how to sign in :o , let alone how :-\ and where to buy a ticket to re-stream the fantastic NMA concert.  Apparently, The Mill's website has been spruced-up a bit and will continue to be tweaked as time moves forward.  They launched a newer, updated version of the site, since I was there last to stream the NMA gig, earlier this month.

Unfortunately, :( V2.0 of The Mill's website doesn't appear to be user-friendly to idiots such as myself.  I've clicked every single possible NMA-related link on every single page I've been on, but none of them have brought me to the ticket purchasing window page.  I can't figure out whether I'm having trouble because I'm simply blind and am missing something crucial, OR, just seriously stupider than I already know I am.

Please post, if any of you have run into major problems recently, especially pertaining to...

  1.  signing in (https://themill.tv/?p=431)  to themill.tv?
  2.  buying a ticket (https://themill.tv/?p=431)  to re-stream the concert on The Mill's website?
  3.  accessing the gig (https://themill.tv/?cat=9)  in any way at themill.tv?
  4.  have any advice or tips?  I'm thinking it's me and not The Mill's website that is at fault, so haven't contacted them via their website, just yet.  Wanted to know if I was the only one experiencing difficulties, before contacting The Mill.

If, on the other hand, you've actually been able to pay-to-stream NMA's excellent 40th Anniversary concert successfully... then please post too?  I really need help.  Tell me what I'm doing incorrectly, show me where I'm going wrong. :-\ Please take the minute to post?  Thanking anyone and all who reply, here, right now... Thank you.

Hey Viv,

That's one of the pages I was on.  I tried to subscribe, but The Mill's website is not recognising my username and password.  After messing around with it for a good 20 minutes, gave up and sent them a message.  I would've signed up again with another email address and password, but there doesn't seem to be a sign up button, there is only a sign IN button.  Hopefully someone from The Mill will get back to me today.

I'd still like to know whether anyone else here is having the same or similar problems accessing re-stream tickets for NMA's gig.  Please share, confirm or deny, via a post, your own experiences accessing the great NMA concert stream. ???

Viv, do you know exactly how long the 40th anniversary NMA concert will remain viewable at themill.tv... 'til the end of November or longer?  Please let us all know?  ???

Thanks.

Hello 8.

When I follow the link posted by Viv, I go straight to The Mill, NMA global gathering.  If I click buy, I am offered the option to sign in OR sign up, though I haven't tried yet.  I hope that lets you access the recorded stream, I want to give it another view myself!

Greetings, Willard.  :)  Thanks  so much for your (above) post.  At the time, (back in October 2020) I managed to watch it only four times.  Originally, I intended on viewing it at least ten times, but personal crap got in the way and then I couldn't find it anymore up at the Mill's website.  I kept going back there every few weeks or so, to see if I could find it, but each time came up sad and empty.  :-[

OMG!!  :D  OMG!!

I just went to the Mill's website right this very second and found it today!!!  :D  Maybe it was there all along, but I swear it wasn't... I had even ran a search for it.  Certainly wasn't clearly visible last month or even in January.  I don't know, maybe the Mill's still messing around with their website or maybe I was just blind.  Everything's better now though, 'cause it's there again!  Boy, I know where I'm heading right after posting this note.  8)

I LOVED the 40th Anniversary gig SO much!!  Especially the entire setlist / songs Mr. Sullivan, Mr. Dean, Mr. White, Mr. Gill and Mr. Monger chose to play for all of us, that night.  I've had a bad string of months recently, and really need a lift right about now.  Thank YOU powers that be = The Mill & NMA, for letting the concert still be accessible to us serious NMA/JS nutters.  ::)

If at all possible, please, I beg, please... tack  Oliver Schwabe's  excellent   WDR  Rockpalast  New Model Army  documentary (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l5KWzPnImtI)  onto the DVD release of the 40th Anniversary gig?  They'd make a sweet package together.  Well, here's hoping.  :)

Hmmm, YESssss!!  I'm off to heaven for a bit.  SOoooo  good.  8)

Here's the link for anyone else who'd love to support their favourite band ever, and / or live it again...

Thank you!

Ooh, took my sixth trip to heaven... yesterday, April 14th.
Begging New Model Army's 40th Anniversary gig'll be a
DVD+CD+WDR documentary package / release.
Maybe in time for the 2021 holiday season?
That would be fantastic!
Sure hope so. :)
