It is called the "Musi-Cal Musical Event >Database" at http://www.calendar.com/concerts Hey, that's a good idea. We could probably get him to add a category for us, if we wanted to. It would definitely make my life easier. I had visions of some poor looper only getting 4 people at his show because my usual 1 week+ lead time to upload stuff prevented 2 other people from knowing about it....:-) >A unique aspect of the system is that it will generate an HTML >code-fragment for searches that can be invoked from a remote system >location (i.e. loopers delight) that will jump out and grab the applicable >listings on demand.

Voila-- a worldwide listing system, automatically maintained. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ now we're talking! The less you have to rely on me, the better off you'll all be.
