Here's a cool site you can use to find live local music by date and location. When you go to Gruvr, just type in your city or zip code and upcoming concerts will begin to appear on a Google map. You can also see a list of all the shows below the map where it lists the band's page, the name of the venue, as well as the address—rock on! via lifehacker

That is really cool!
1Just as I thought - there is absolutely nothing going on in Auckland!
2How can Bad Religion not be anywhere near LA!
But that aside, awesome search thing. Love
watching the notes go from one city to another. 
3Hi!
THanks for the mention... thought I'd point out a few things:
Re 2&3 - Bad religion is here
http://gruvr.com/band/badreligion
To get an alert next time they pass thru LA, just enter
your email
And they are playing in - AUCKLAND!
http://gruvr.com/show/115088/
Re main post - you shouldn't have to enter your location.
499.9% of the time, it should guess where you are, or
pretty close... right from your first visit to gruvr.com!
Oh one more thing to the poor auckland person..
Yeah, there are 16 shows it knows about for Auckland!
Just type in Auckland NZ in the search box, or go here:
http://gruvr.com/city/Auckland/
You can also get a feed of all the shows for auckland...
5Hm...About time! Neat!
6this would be awesome for people that live in the city. I looked up my town, and there wasn't much there!
7what town? how far away did you tell it to look??
8the deal is - it gets data from myspace and a few other places, and that is where your small local bands all sign up.
So if you do have bands that play locally even in your small town, and you can find them on myspace, you can put those bands on the map and it will always keep track of them for you.
You can find the data for shows near you on myspace but it takes some work... go to music->shows (both tiny links). Then enter your zipcode, and select a distance... you'll see what's there.
9Such an awesome site. Thank you!
Although... I just found out that MUSE is going to be in Budapest like 3 days after I leave, which is a bummer. LOL.
10this is amazing!!!
11really nice to see all these positive comments about gruvr!!
danielle re muse: you missed them this time?
not a problem.
Just go here:
http://gruvr.com/band/muse/
All you do is enter an email - no account needed.
Then gruvr will send you an alert when MUSE schedules a show near you - EVEN IF YOU MOVE, it will figure out where you are and where Muse is
Wed appreciate any help in spreading the word about the site which isnt exactly quite done yet.
12Maybe geeksugar would want to do the first real review of it?
who would we ask?
