If like me, you're a regular gig-goer this isolation malarkey will probably already be giving you a strong case of FOMO. 

It seems that almost everyone has a ukelele, acoustic guitar or keyboard and that they are now willingly live streaming to friends and family on Facebook. These can be great or very not-so. However, there are some big names out there who are sharing their talent for free, now that tours have been cancelled.

We've have trawled the interwebs to bring you a round-up of the musical streams that caught our eye across a variety of platforms. 

Metallica

Thrash Metal heroes, one of the Big Four and now Rock Royalty, Metallica continues to forge forwards. Lars, James, Kirk and Robert have recently kicked-off a new concert series, #MetallicaMondays. The show sees the band stream a complete Metallica gig on the group's YouTube channel and Facebook Page every week. They start at 20:00 (EDT) every Friday. Yeah! \m/\m/

Neil Young

Neil Young is rocking the home video vibe with his Fireside Sessions - his wife is behind the camera while he gives a live concert from his living room. Young promises a “down-home production, a few songs, a little time together”, and that's fine by us.

Bruce Springsteen

Bruce Springsteen has, for the first time, released his live performance from London Calling, Hyde Park. You can't beat a bit of The Boss.

Sydney Opera House

March 28th was Piano Day; you knew that, right? Well, Australia marked this occasion with some of the world’s finest pianists playing at the Sydney Opera House. It was streamed live, but you can still catch the performances and exclusive interviews, including the likes of Nils Frahm, Jon Hopkins, Joep Beving, Margaret Leng and more.

National Theatre

A change of pace and artform, perhaps, but how could we ignore the National Theatre's announcement of #NationalTheatreAtHome? The YouTube channel will see some of the best British theatre delivered at 19:00 (GMT) every Thursday. Although, saying that, it begins with James Corden in One Man Two Guvnors on 2nd April. Just kidding, James!
