Music lovers with money and time to spare following their favorite bands, may appreciate a new iPhone app that does all the hard work of tracking down all the dates and stops of those bands. The New York Times reviewed the $2.99 app called IConcertCal, and found that it does even more. The IConcertCal app is a sophisticated piece of work that scans the bands or artists names in your music files then checks it against the database of concert promoters like Live Nation or ticket reselers like Ticketmaster.com, Stubhub.com, Jambase.com and others. From there , it can tell you when your favorite act is coming to your town or if you are traveling, you can have it to canvass for the hapenings in another city.
Other cool features of the app are the one that let you e-mail any finding to another person, to map the venue's location, to listen to your favorite acts on the iTunes site with the option to buy tracks.
And above all that, you can also buy tickets to the venue, through the app in many cases. Or, if you still need more information, you can head to a site thanks to a "Web info" button and while staying withing the site.
