I am trying to create a web radio server to stream 3 sources simultaneously. I am using python to create the original client for icecast2 using the python-shout library. I am not too familiar with the language (python). however, I got a sample program that does what I need, and much more, and I changed it for my needs. However, I can only create two threads, and after that I get the error message shown below. I don't know what I'm doing wrong, so I hope you guys help me figure this out.

error message i get

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
