Are our bands using Bands In Town?

TL;DR

It would be great if I could post show listings for bands in the Six Degrees of Ohio realm. This is a hard problem because it's a lot of work to keep one listing up to date. There is a platform called Bands in Town, which allows users to post gigs and other information. Bands in town lets users easily share this information

This data would make it very easy for us to publish upcoming gigs for our featured bands.

How this would work

A buddy of mine, Ted at Bagel Radio , spins bands that are constantly on tour. It would be easy to miss the opportunity to see them locally, so I built a tool called Bagel Concert Finder that lets users track when bands played on his show come to town. Give it a look, and you'll quickly get how the tool works and how it might be useful.

I initially built this tool to scratch my own itch, but I think it could be a great addition to this show. I think this could also prove super useful for Six Degrees of Ohio bands. I need to know how many bands use the site to announce gigs.

Your Homework

If you are a band using Bands in Town to announce your show dates, drop me an email at: - [email protected] And I'll start compiling a list of artists, and if there are more than a few, I'll set up a gig page.

For those of you who have followed my music projects over the years, you'll remember "The Refrigerator Page," where we listed the upcoming shows for the month. This is the same idea, and I think we could recreate the spirit of that page, and even make a proper PDF for print and download.
