hellz naw, I was trying to find you earlier so I pull certain news feeds from TCTD onto the site.

your site is amazing for general news, where this is generally going to be a wiki/last.fm combination which people can use its API for other web services. A central hub for people to find out when events are going on and a artist specific wiki area.

API could be worked with to give TCTD a more gig specific area. O: oh the possibility's

could be interesting, may i suggest an rss feed for the gigs, possibly with an option to set up preferences for what you receive based on location or other factors?
or are you still hatin'? wink

all in the plans wink
I might be thinking too big but in my personal opinion, a service like this is exactly what the chip scene needs to have gigs heard about from others who do not dwell upon these subject specific forums.

So wait...

You're suggesting that people who are not scene centric will for some reason gravitate to another scene specific website? How is this supposed to broaden the exposure?

scenario 1
guy1: oh damn whats this? that guy who makes music I like had a show in my town and I didnt know? oh how gay
guy2: LOL YOU SHOULD HAVE CHECKED CHIPIVERSE!!! DEY TELL YOU ALL DA CHIP SHOWS AROUND U LOL U DUM

scenario 2
Guy: hmmm I really wanna go to this show but my mates are gay poo poo faces who dont wanna go because its only advertising is on a forum filled with troll/inside jokes which make it look terrible... OH HANG ON... WHATS THIS.... chipiverse?! OH DAMN, EVERYTHING LOOKS PEFOESSIONAL!!! Whats even better is that it looks professional, has directions/google maps embeded, pictures of past events of the same event, links to buy tickets, nicely formatted artist wiki bio's on the page, videos and more! Its a good thing this site existed otherwise I doubt as much people turned up to the show.

Scenario 3: Hmmmmm I want "widget/badge" type thing on my site so that when I am playing at a show people know the exact information but in a nice clean simple manner", this is perfect for shit like myspace, forums and other gay shit which would deffiently boost the turn out of the show.

YOU TAKE IT BACK. YOU TAKE IT BACK RIGHT NOW. NO 8BC ON CHIPMUSIC.

Also, I really hope the site ACTUALLY looks like that. It'd make me happy.

NO. The damage is done. There's nothing you can do.

Unless you make a time machine.
