Concertimatic App (NYC) Ensures You Never Miss Another Show

primary-screenshotYou know the frustration of discovering day-of or after-the-fact that one of your favorite bands was playing a local venue? I know I do. A new iPhone App, developed by a NYC music fan, aims to rid your life of such frustration. Concertimatic, now available through the Apple App Store for iPhone and iPod Touch, crawls your iTunes playlist and automatically alerts you to which bands are playing near you.

I loaded up Concertimatic on my iPhone a couple weeks ago. It scanned my iTunes in just a minute and spit out an impressive listing of shows in the NYC area, including a few I hadn’t heard about in my usual alert chain via OhMyRockness show-list newsletter (which is indie rock oriented) or Pollstar, or elsewhere online. You can view by “This Week,” “This Month” and “Two Months.”

Just checking this morning, I found out that Guy Clark’s playing B.B. Kings tomorrow night!

The app saves you the time of searching through sites and artist pages, and gives you the option of emailing yourself the details, getting directions or purchasing the concert tickets right then and there. The app’s default is to know where you are, but allows you to change your location if you are planning a trip and want to see who is playing in that town. Some people are willing to travel great distances to see their band, so Concertimatic offers a range option from one mile up to 200.

Concertimatic’s founder/owner Duncan King reportedly conceptualized the app a year ago while listening to Blues Traveler and thinking, “man, it would suck if they were in town this week and I missed them.” Coming full circle, King got a notification some weeks ago that Blues Traveler’s playing The Fillmore New York next week. Thanks to Concertimatic, he’ll be there to see it!
