We’ve got a growing events search engine here: http://www.playster.org

We’re unique in that we’re designed to link directly to the promoter’s site or blog. This not only generates exposure for the event but drives traffic to your site.

Enjoy!

This is a great resource, thanks Chris. When we started Colour a couple of years ago the prospect of getting the attention of our target audience was a little daunting and while it feels like we’ve come a long way, it’s critical to keep on top of emerging platforms and sites.

Hiya Chris, just thought of another one and it’s too long to tweet!

How about a printable version (white background) of the lineup with times? I’m currently mucking about in Word with the table I copied from the Gigbeth site because I don’t want to waste ink.

I did a similar thing with the Supersonic lineup because I didn’t want to carry a big programme around.
