we (Songkick) have already built an aggregator for concert tickets - covering 17 ticket vendors in the UK and US. If you're looking for gig tickets I'd love your feedback. Thanks
Yes - definitely check Songkick.com out. TS is never going to be a music recommendation site or community. And Songkick's database of information and uncanny accuracy of its Itunes plugin download are unsurpassed. We have no interest in being everything to everyone (it's why Oyaka.com and fatlens.com failed) and Songkick does a lot of stuff we'll never try to do.
Originally, the plan was to stick to Sports tickets for at least a year and then maybe add concerts (if at all). However, right after we launched, despite having "sports" and sports leagues plastered all over our site, more than half our search logs were concert related. Additionally, numerous publications said they would cover us if we had concerts and we received email after email demanding concert and theater listings from our users.
great, thanks, you have the most thorough gig listing for Pittsburgh shows I've seen in one place.
I was actually price hunting for Radiohead tickets for tomorrow in Toronto. ;) I think they are a bit out of my pricerange everywhere, the worst tickets are selling for twice as much as I scalped my extra, amazing tickets for Philly.
