One problem with these services, though, is they try to be a one-stop destination. This leaves artists in the unfortunate position of having to enter their basic data into multiple services, beginning with myspace (sine qua non for live music promotion). I wouldn't be surprised to see some kind of consolidation going on with this new funding where RN could buy up some of the smaller sites that already integrate and build on existing gig data, like tourfilter, gruvr, gigblastr, tourb.us, etc...
