RTP-area local music and culture

You make a good point, but I will say that even a half assed page at
reverbnation (like http://www.reverbnation.com/sorryaboutdresden !) brings
with it some great opportunities.  For instance, I go to reverbnation and
put all of my shows in there and then embed the tour widget on myspace and
on the SAD website.  That way I only have to update one thing and it
automatically spreads out to all of the web outlets.  That alone is worth
the 20 minutes I took to open a reverbnation account.

I don't work for reverbnation!
