Welcome to Metrocket.com and thanks for reading the first post!   This post serves to introduce everyone to the Live Music iPhone application.   We officially submitted Live Music to Apple’s App Store on Friday, October 2nd.  The average wait time is apparently two weeks, so hopefully it will reach the marketplace by October 16th or so.

Live Music is a music application that automatically shows what concerts and events are going on in your area.  It uses either your GPS location or a specified location and delivers a large collection of events in an easy-to-understand format.  Once you’ve found a concert, you can email it to a friend or even buy tickets right then and there.

Live Music partners with Pollstar.com, The Concert Hotwire, for all of its event data.  Pollstar maintains a massive database of events that span multiple countries.  Pollstar partners with Ticketmaster and Live Nation, making purchasing tickets all the easier for you.  Whether you’re looking for the biggest acts of the year or looking for who’s playing down the street tonight, Live Music is a perfect app for you.

That’s about it for the introduction.   Even though the app has yet to hit the marketplace, we are hard at work on the first update.  We’ll be posting much more about the app in the near future, so be sure to check back for all the latest news.

Thanks,
Evan Metrock
