Location-based live music app

Gigotron : One of the leading topics of the SXSW conference was location-based apps that fuse social networking with GPS-capabilities. One of the best examples of such - and a recipient of a SXSW Mobile Award - is this network that relays information about live music in a given area. Gigotron is an exceptional resource for music fans on-the-go, as it not only provides show schedules and details, but is also a unique way to uncover new artists. As interest in location-based services heats up with more people buying GPS-enabled devices, we're interested to see if/how such is incorporated into already popular services such as Facebook and Twitter.
