Thanks for visiting Owngig.com, the site where crowdsourcing meets ‘live’ events.
Having attended gigs for too many years to mention it has always baffled me as to why fans don’t get more say in where artists choose to tour.
Now that is set to change, and through this community we enable users with similar tastes in music and comedy to come together, demonstrating to artists where there is sufficient demand to add a tour date or even arrange a special show.
We are well connected with record labels, artist management and the booking agencies and will ensure that your collective voice is heard whenever we detect strong interest in a specific show. Furthermore in due course we will be allowing artists themselves to post shows to the site itself, creating a trading platform for future performances.
Its still early days for us, hence the alpha status of the site, so we are very keen to understand where you think we can improve the service. We have even created a section in Contact Us to make suggestions / complaints about Owngig.com – please do let us know so we can add relevant suggestions to our future plans.
If you have any questions then please refer to the FAQ first as we may have it covered already.
Finally look out for the Owngig.com widget which will be available for most social networks very soon. This will enable you to display your first, best and worst gigs in your profile as well as creating your own gig and inviting others to join you.
That’s it for now, but we will be posting regularly to update you on our plans and to announce new shows so please come back soon.
