Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/asciinema/asciinema/issues/54

Based on https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1070266

When user try to upload a session onto server where asciinema's service doesn't run, one gets this ugly python output:

~ Asciicast recording finished.
~ Do you want to upload it? [Y/n] 
~ Uploading...
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/asciinema", line 9, in <module>
    load_entry_point('asciinema==0.9.8', 'console_scripts', 'asciinema')()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/asciinema/__main__.py", line 7, in main
    get_command(sys.argv[1:], Config()).execute()

    url = self.uploader.upload(self.api_url, self.api_token, asciicast)

    r = adapter.send(request, **kwargs)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/requests/adapters.py", line 327, in send
    raise ConnectionError(e)
requests.exceptions.ConnectionError: HTTPConnectionPool(host='localhost', port=3000): Max retries exceeded with url: /api/asciicasts (Caused by <class 'socket.error'>: [Errno 111] Connection refused)

Can be there any nice-looking error message about no possibility to connect/upload session to server instead?
