Exploring our addiction to the live music experience |
Continuing our exploration of sites, apps, tools, other cool stuf for concert fans, we’ve been experimenting with the new social media bookmarking site Pinterest. It’s a great site and we’ve posted several boards for you to enjoy. Here’s our Pinterest Live Fix collection of boards. So far we’ve created boards for concert infographics, ticket stubs, [...]
Continuing our new exploration into community management and social business, I wanted to pass along info about two local events that I’ll be checking out the next couple of days. The first one is Thursday night as Social Media Club Chicago hosts a discussion about The Future of Community Management at Google’s Chicago offices. They’ll [...]
telling stories about concert fans has taught me a lot about how live music changes our lives forever. And my curiosity about live music communities has led me on a journey to explore many other types of emerging communities. For starters, in our brand explorations, I’ve applied what we’ve learned about concert fan communities to help grow, [...]
Social media and concert history were made this week as Tiesto, Twitter and HP teamed up at CES 2012 to deliver a live stream of the Dutch DJ rocking the a VIP crowd from the booth. And the event was a great opportunity to continue or live concert brand exploration. As Billboard reports, The private, [...]
We’ve been cruising along with the new Live Fix Radio podcast and every time I talk with a fellow concert fan for a new episode I’m always so pumped after our chat. I freakin’ love hearing about all your live music stories! That said, we recently met up with Eric “Nihilist” Kolkey who’s in [...]

After we began our tour tour rider experiment last week, I’m excited to tell you I have some excellent evidence to share that we discovered at the Hideout Block Party on Sunday just before Mavis Staples’ set. As you can see by the picture above there was a large throne waiting for Mavis Staples. It [...]
So the other day I saw this tweet that Roger Ebert tweeted and I replied back to him asking him what he thought about a today’s female pop stars handling the very rowdy situation at Altamont. Well, I was really hoping to hear back from Roger. But I haven’t yet. So I thought [...]
I’ve been having lots of fun on Google Plus these last couple months. Ever since I got my invite I’ve been playing around with it to see what the value of the social network is for concert fans. And I have to say that I’m really excited about the possibilities. What I love the most [...]
Love and hate. Pleasure and pain. Doubt and clarity. Those were just some of the profound and entertaining topics I discovered as I compiled our second edition of Tweets of the Week. It’s been fun watching this experiment evolve and it’s turning out to be a facinating exploration into what you love to express at [...]
