Tourfilter

One of those "next big thing" tools, Tourfilter provides users with the ability to track upcoming concerts for each of their favorite bands. Simply build a list of your favorite bands, and receive email updates when concerts are scheduled for your area. While the site doesn't currently support Denver, I've been assured by it's creator that the rollout to the Mile-high city will come in the next few months.

From the About section of the website:
The Story of Tourfilter

We made Tourfilter because we were missing too many shows.

We would hear about shows after tickets had already been sold out. Or worse, read about them in the Globe the day after. Maybe even in the Metro (oh, the shame!)

So we decided to write a program that would download all the Boston-area club listings daily and search them for the names of bands we liked, then send an email when a hit came up. And that's Tourfilter. And it's not just for us, it's for everyone (chances are we're coming to your city soon).

In short, Tourfilter has tools to:

* Track as many bands as you can think of. We'll send an email to you as soon as a show one of them is in gets announced.
* Browse the bands tracked by people with similar taste, and maybe decide to track some of their bands, too.
* Recommend upcoming shows to your friends.
* Get recommendations from particular people with interesting taste.


In case you haven't noticed, Tourfilter is a work in progress. Please email us (info at tourfilter) with feedback, suggestions or issues!
