The live bill · concerts, festivals, theatre & comedy
Every real show.
On one bill.
The bill is read live from Ticketmaster’s Discovery API — real upcoming concerts, festivals, theatre, opera, comedy and dance across the United States, Canada, the UK, Germany, France and Australia, or all six at once. Filter it by when, where, what and price; sort it; heart the ones you mean to see. Every ticket link is the real one.
There is no mock data anywhere on this page. What the wire answers is what the bill shows, a show that will not answer is reported as exactly that, and your saved shows and your API key live in this browser and nowhere else.

The bill
Filter it. Then go.
One console, five readings of the same live data: the bill as cards, as a calendar, as a table of venues, as a drawn map, and as the shortlist you have saved. The filters apply to all of them.
The bill
A bill, not a brochure.
Press Sync the wire — or just wait a beat; the first read starts itself — and the page asks Ticketmaster’s Discovery API for every upcoming music, theatre and comedy listing it will give, in the region the selector names. What comes back is the bill: real shows, real venues, real dates, real ticket links.
- The bill — every show as a card, filtered and sorted your way.
- The calendar — the same shows, grouped by date.
- The venues — the rooms, ranked by how much is on in them.
- The map — every venue with coordinates, drawn in a canvas by this page’s own hand.
- Saved — the shows you heart, kept in this browser.
The wire is rate-limited on free keys, so the page reads it when asked rather than on a timer — the sync button and the country selector are the two things that spend requests.
Tap a dot to read what’s on in that room.
Nothing on the bill matches that.
Loosen a filter, clear the search, or sync the wire again for a fresh read.
Collections
Four cuts of the same bill.
Curated from the live data, not from a list somebody typed: each collection is a rule run over whatever the wire answered, so it is different every time the bill is. Opening one filters the bill above.
The key
Your key, your browser.
The page ships with a working Discovery API key, so the bill reads out of the box. Free keys share a rate limit; if the wire starts refusing, a key of your own from developer.ticketmaster.com takes thirty seconds and is stored only in this browser’s localStorage — it is never sent anywhere except to Ticketmaster.

About
A bill, honestly read.
The concert.llc discovery engine, brought home to labs.llc and rebuilt on the paper system in both editions. The events are Ticketmaster’s Discovery API data, read live from this browser and labelled with their source; the map is drawn in a canvas by the page itself, no map library; the calendar files are written by hand as .ics. Free keys carry Ticketmaster’s rate limits, and attribution belongs to them. No accounts, no tracking — a well-made window onto what’s on.
