There's too much good stuff going on to settle for alpha. With that in mind, we'll take a little extra time and be going straight to beta. What's better about Beta, and why the change? There's a new programmer on board here at Music Slice, and life has become a bit easier.
Among the features to be initially released is the Shows & Events part of Music Slice, sure to make a big splash and have a huge impact on concert goers everywhere. Personally, I'm chomping at the bit. Not only is this going to be a perfect place to search for shows I may want to see, but will also give me a heads up when there's shows playing that I'd like to see based on our ever improving recommendation algorithms. The better Music Slice gets to know me, the better recommendations I'll get.
For example I might get a text message sent to my phone at 4pm on a Thursday letting me know that there's some great live music going on in Madison Square Park, which is a quick walk after work for good tunes and a stop by the Shake Shack for one of the best burgers in the city.
It's not just the algorithm and what it can do - there's your friends. Check out the master schedule of your friends to see what shows they're going to. See what people are saying about shows or leave a comment yourself - even during the show using your phone. Keep tabs on all your favorite artists and venues effortlessly. Even better, get tickets to major concerts that are "sold out" that you find through Music Slice.
Good times, better music. We'll see you soon!

So this all sounds pretty cool, I like the idea. Too bad it's not up yet. I've been looking for some shows to check out while I'm in New York. Any ideas?
I wish it were up too, soon though...
What kind of show do you want to see, are you looking to go to a big concert, or just some smaller venues like a club or a bar maybe? And of course, what style of music are you in the mood for?
something chill, maybe a bar or club but definately not anything big. I'll listen to just about anything.. right now i'm in the mood for an acoustic set. But that will change in an hour :) Honestly, i'll consider anything you've got. the city's still new to me.
does "anonymous" have a name?
Yea "anonymous" is me Kenny, just wasn't logged in.
Actually if you're into it, Al Green is playing tonight at 7:30 at Coney Island, I may try to make it down there. Here's some info on that:

Also I've heard some really good acoustic shows are going on at this place The Living Room, check out the site: http://www.ny.com/cgibin/frame.cgi?url=http://www.livingroomny.com&frame=/frame/clubs.html
Are you living in NYC or just visiting? I hope you enjoy it either way, and I'll be sure to get the site up quickly so you we can all find better shows a bit easier.
al green's had his moments, but i'm not really much of a fan. never been to coney island though...
I'm from flordia but visiting a friend in connecticut. she works in the city so I've been off exploring, meeting some interesting people..
I'm thinking about relocating to the northeast after graduation, probably new york for awhile. terribly cliche, but i love it
