Great app! by anonymI needed an app like this. Good thing I found GigBeat. 5/5
No easy upcoming gig view by anonymThis app has some great features, like notifying you of upcoming concerts from the artist you're listening to, but using it as a gig guide is frustrating. As far as I can see, there's no view that shows me all upcoming gigs of my artists in my location. I have to go into each touring artist and find my local gig. Too much work. If this view was added, it could be my go to guide. 3/5
Please fix! by anonymCan't search any artists, keeps saying "no artist found" 1/5
Thx! by anonymThank u for adding a category to search shows by Venue. See you @ TheRockShows 5/5
Works sometimes by anonymI love this app but lately I haven't been able to add any new artists to my watchlist. Keeps saying that the artist is not found which I know is bs. 3/5
Doesn't work at all by anonymForce closes a lot 1/5
Crash by anonymConstantly crashes and will not allow searches for my location. Stick to music paper ads. 1/5
Doesn't work Nexus 7 by anonymI really enjoy this app when it works. 1/5
Wtf by anonymAwesome, helped me keep track of my bands until I couldn't find any artists anymore. I thought my tastes were too obscure, until I tried the same search for "Rihanna" and "Kanye West." Still, no artists found. Now I know with certainty that it isn't me. Please fix or this app has lost its use. 3/5
Crashing ruins a good idea by anonymCrashes every time I use it. 2/5
by anonymSucks now since update, crashes everytime, roll it back to last version so at least it will eork. 1/5
Data Hog by anonymFor some reason since the update, it has used an abnormal amount of data. Used more now than any other app including, more than the next two combined. 2/5
Used to work by anonymNexus 7...every click is a "stopped working" been like this for at least 3 months. Unusable the whole time 2/5
Meh by anonymNice functions, but the app is extremely slow and could use a more logical/intuitive UI. 3/5
Great app but... by anonymThis app looks awesome and does everything you could want BUT it runs quite glitchy on my GS3. Lists do not scroll smoothly and some transitions hang up the UI for several seconds at a time. Fix for a 5er. 4/5
This doesn't work on Transformer Prime. by anonymFor a while now, and no fixes....downgrade! 1/5
Crashing by anonymJust got a tablet and it's constantly crashing love it on my phone though. 3/5
Forcing close... on tablet by anonymGreat app, but can't do much as it now force-closes every time I select a gig. It worked well with Honeycomb, so I assume it's ICS. Please update. Using Galaxy Tab 10.1 3/5
It contradicts itself by anonymwhen I get a notice saying that patti smith is playing in my area(NYC)I go 2 the attached page which then tells me "no shows in your area"! I don't need artist bios I need gig alerts! since I usually find out on my own so idk..if update doesn't fix, uninstall. if it does I'll edit&rerate. I wish it worked,I see bands on the reg. Alice Cooper in Newark 2moro! and no,I didn't find the show on this app. Epic4G 2/5
Can't disable notifications by anonymCool service, but the notification settings don't work. This app creates a lot of notification bar spam, and makes me wonder (every day, as I'm dismissing the notifications I've already attempted to turn off in the app) if I wouldn't just be better off without it. 2/5
Newest version does not recognize any artist by anonymOld version worked great...new version is terrible. The only thing the app is designed to do fails miserably. Please fix! 1/5
cool.. by anonymlove this app. we can also add to calendar event for reminder. one question is: how the see the maps for avenue or location? I wish the next update already integrated with google maps. great dev! thanks. 5/5
Not for me by anonymIt crashes every time I try to click on the artist/tour info, and not a single artist is searchable. Also, musical events going on in my burg somehow get mistranslated if they have a simple word that corresponds to a favorite artist. I don't want to get all excited in the moment for somebody who's not even coming to my neck of the woods. Is there anybody even working on this app anymore? Update: I've given up and started using Bandsintown, which blows this out of the water, I'm finding. 1/5
High Battery usage and LONG overdue for an update. by anonymThe benefits are not worth the high battery usage of this app that looks abandoned if you're to judge by any recent updates. 3/5
Update woes by anonymIts a good app but since the upstream is very unstable and force closes. Sent you reports TF300 3/5
Unusable after last update by anonymEvery time I click on the artist it force closes. Every single time. So I cant see when/where they're playing which is the whole point of the app. 1/5
Nice in theory by anonymFails miserably in execution. Always list bands not on tour even though "do not list bands not currently on tour" is checked. Only searches built in memory for music no option to select ext SD card where mist people store music. So basically this app doesn't recommend anything especially anyone actually touring your area. This app is like that pretty girl you are dying to hook up with...Then she open her mouth and all you want to do is leave... Uninstalled. 1/5
Nexus 7 porblem... by anonymthis app force closes on my nexus 7.... i have tried to restart my nexus 7.... but it still dont work. please fix.. Update: have now changed to two stars... If it does not come a update soon, the future will bring you a one star review Update: 1 star 1/5
My dream app! by anonymI've been to lots of gigs that otherwise I wouldn't have known about. I'm also tortured by the fact that I leave town and can see what I'm missing, but that's not the app's fault. 5/5
Notifications need work by anonymGreat live music discovery app, however, when I get a notification that says one/some of my bands are coming to town, I click it and it takes me to a blank page in the app, EVERY TIME. This has been going on for some time now, but I remember when it used to work in the early days of this app. 3/5
Useless, abandoned app... by anonymThis hasn't received a single update since June 2012... Don't waste your time downloading an app that doesn't work on devices released in the past 3-years. Not to mention the obvious fact that the devs abandoned support for this app years ago now. 1/5
Good... At first. by anonymIt was great when I first got it. However, now I can't search locations, or new bands. I thought it was just the metal genre I liked, so to be sure I searched 'Olly Murs'. It said "no artists found". So I know its broke, which is a shame because I liked this app. 3/5
Beautiful UI, crashes a lot by anonymCrashes but not as often. It would b nice if the widget could open the app. Also it would b great if buying tix didn't take u to a website, defeats the purpose of an app.. I prefer this app over others just because it's very customizable with account settings, it doesn't force social on you (I don't really care what my friends are listening to) and it gives me a nice profile of bands to check out. Also, love the alert notifications, keeps me posted on tickets for sale. 4/5
Seems like a great app, bugs badly need ironing out by anonymThis app seems great; it looks gorgeous, the interface makes sense, it supports last.fm. Problem is, I can't do anything. Selecting most options forces a close and a lot of bits won't update. I get the feeling this has recently been given an overhaul and these bugs still need ironing out. Hope you can get it done soon, this app otherwise is perfect! Oh, 1 more thing though: Lincoln, UK for some reason isn't available in the 'cities' bit of the 'location' menu. 4/5
force closes when clicking on gig by anonymUnable to view any gig info as it crashes. This makes the app kind of pointless if you cant view the date and venue the artist is playing in. I have also noticed it consuming a huge amount of data compared to other apps, around 150mb per month! slightly excessive.. 1/5
Great App!!! by anonymThis App gets down to about everything going on in the locations chosen! This app is great! I had OnTour, Bandsintwon, and Songkick for a while but it missed a lot of concerts and never got any notifications through them. This app is a 5 star in my book! Fast, to the point and slick interface with awesome notifications.. It also seems to work with Google Play music now, if a band plays, it will send the notification immediately if they are playing in your area. Amazing!!!! 4/5
Great Idea but problems.. by anonymI love this app! I am a concert photographer and this is a great way to get all the shows I want to shoot in the same place instead of having to go around searching for when an artist will be in town. However, it 'stops working' alot and is very difficult with searching artists. I'm sure that it's just a glitch with the new interface, which is fantastic I might add. I have no doubt an update will be coming soon to fix all of these little bumps. 3/5
by anonymfix plz...its buggy with the notifications....once u go to it ...nothing but forecloses....i like this app but its not useful if this is not working properly 3/5
1/23/15 - is this app/service down? by anonymApp no longer gets updates, searches don't work, and website provides 504 HTTP code/error. Is this app toast? No longer a thing??? Love the interface, the tracking by artists, venue, location, etc. Only reason not giving 5 stars is for 2 reasons (and quite possibly out of the developers' hands, but thought I'd state if possible future release can add these features): 1. Integration and ability to scan Google Music artists in. 2. Integration and ability to scan AmazonMP3 Cloud Player. 4/5
Crashes every time by anonymLinked with my rdio account but cannot access any gig info as the app just crashes every time I use it :-( 1/5
