I'm currently building a local music directory called "Next Up, Seattle," with Python and Flask which can be viewed at https://NextUpSeattle.com
Update:

Next Up Seattle is now available at NextUpSeattle.com! We are the quickest way to find out who's playing next on any given stage in Seattle. I am adding more venues all the time and currently working to make it a bit more visually pleasing.

Why does Kash Patel always look like he's right about to die from autoerotic asphyxiation?

Just when I think finally grown up, and "ex-presso" slips out at the coffee shop.

...is "swell," as in "I'm swell, thanks for asking," a contraction of "so well...?"

In the middle of a major refactoring of my website. I have been afraid to do this because of how in-the-weeds it's gonna get me but fuck it - it's time

Is Drake even alive right now or is it like Voldemort after trying to kill baby Harry?

I know this is so far removed from the point of the show and it doesn't even matter, but Tony Soprano had really shitty taste in music.

Why is it that every single platform, ever, which lets users post text publicly, (so literally EVERY social media platform), has not supported formatting the text with bold, italic, underline, strikethrough, etc...?????

I'm genuinely looking for an answer. What a waste of good tools

I give you...a MAP!

It does not yet work as intended.

But it will soon!

Added some more venues today, too, so here's what's coming up in the city, too :)

Technically, "don't" is a perfectly correct contraction for "donut."

It...technically works

Hey Christoph! Trying to use your streamlit app with pretty maps and I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here. Do you have any insights?

Some of tonight's live music in Seattle. I'm working on a map view now, too. Feels like development is in its final stretches now! The next update I deploy will have some big changes!

Flies only ever speed-date.

Then again, it is already looking a LOT better. Here are the next shows up in Seattle

Reached the point in developing my app where I need to work on the front end and actually make it look good and, well... usable, and my initial suspicions were correct: front-end blows. I hate it so much. I feel like I'm failing a kindergarten coloring assignment WHY WONT IT STAY INSIDE THE LINES?!

It's no secret that the Next Up! Seattle pages I've been screenshotting are not very nice to look at, so I've worked up a rough prototype for a user-interface that I think will be nice for people to use. What do you think?

Coming up in #Seattle #live #music.

Tremolo Fest, Night 2, at the Central Saloon was fantastic.

Showbox venues are fixed!

Here are the next musical acts in #Seattle

Central Saloon is accurate despite the wrong date showing (the show is multiple nights) and has been fixed going forward

Both ShowBoxes are not showing their soonest next event yet so please check their site for now.

Will fix it tonight!

Next Up! #Seattle #Music

Here are the next music events at these venues.

NOTE: El Corazon and ShowBox SoDo are not accurate right now so please check their websites. I'm aiming to fix these issues tomorrow.

Something about PyCharm making highly specific (and quite frankly, nitpicky) grammatical corrections to my code comments just feels wrong. Like, come on, buddy, we need to stay focused here.

More venues coming soon.

These make for the best smoothie. Admittedly, the juice adds a bit more sugar than you really want in the morning, but even just a splash really ups the ante.
