Live Nations Kick-Ass Concert Calendar Recommends You Gigs From 75 Ticket Sites, Earns You Discounts
You know what doesn't rock? Missing a concert by your favorite band. Live Nation wants to make sure that doesn't happen to you, so today it's publicly launchingConcert Calendar, a Facebook app that pulls in music and comedy gig listings from Ticketmaster (which merged with Live Nation in 2010) as well as 75 other ticketers. The calendar offers concert recommendations based on your Facebook Likes and streaming service listening habits from Spotify and other apps, as well as the shows you're friends are going to.You even earn Concert Cash for discounts on tickets and merchandise just for visiting.As a huge live music fan, I've been waiting for a product like this that can accurately recommend me concerts, and honestly it's ridiculous someone hadn't already built it. Live Nation was very smart to feed in other ticketers it partners with, as that makes it good enough to become your destination for concert discovery. Oh, and it will definitely boost Live Nation ticket sales.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/xAaS7R7M13s/
