Kind of OT but has anyone succeeded in creating playlists through YouTube's API? I had a kind of similar idea to this and wanted to create automatic playlists but failed on the integration part. EDIT: Ok, looks like this is very easy with the v3 API. This was quite a long time ago.

I've been working on this: https://www.laidbackvj.com/ code here: https://github.com/khaliqgant/laid-back-vj . Happy to work with others!

That's super cool man.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

How about crowdsourcing the info somehow, maybe letting people enter it for their city from some source and making that public for everyone?

I started such a crowdsourcing effort some time ago :) https://www.reddit.com/r/MusicEventsHackers/comments/87ui5l/...

that is an intense google sheet. :)

Seems like a different thing: https://news.bandsintown.com/home BIT is cool if you want to know who's in town and you know who they are, this for people who'd rather just hear tracks and if they like them go 'cool, I like whoever this is, I'll get tickets'

Oh I see. Thanks for the clarification.

Hey, I love this idea and am working on something similar (an alternative events discovery and promotion tool for cities). I see that a lot of you folks here are also working on similar stuff. How about we chat more about these topics? Integration with APIs like BandsInTown, Facebook, apps like Spotify, SoundCloud, YouTube, music metadata collection from MusicBrainz, Discogs… If these topics sound interesting, join t…

Let me sign up for a mailing list for when you add in my city :)

This is cool! One suggestion: 7 days ahead is pretty grim, at in London tickets sell out fast.

I presume it's to keep the queries low? Maybe it could be a date range with a max of 7 days instead? Defaulting to a month from now + 7 days?
