I really wish there was more to it then just sports but it's a good start. I love the interface Do you guys plan to expand into other markets?

Concerts and theater are coming ASAP. Just has been hard with demo day and VC/angel stuff.

    Thank you! I'm a former financial analyst too. The change was worth it 1000x.

  Concerts & theatre would sell it to me. I've been complaining there is no decent way to find something to do online (especially if you're visiting a city) for a while. I'm not 100% sure, but I think some of the best options down here a government run.

    Have you tried http://www.songkick.com http://www.songkick.com, also a YC startup? They are now doing music and concert tickets.

      Wow, that's a very nice site. Too bad no Canadian support. Always curious why that is for sites like this

        Sorry about that truebosko. We're working on extending our coverage to Canada & Australia over the next months. We focused initially on getting as comprehensive as possible in the UK and US (focusing on doing a good job in a specific niche) before adding other countries. Live music has a really long tail and we want to build a product that really hard core live music fans like ourselves will trust. Canada is coming soon though. We've got a big integration with Songbird launching next week and their community is asking for that pretty loudly as well!

        Great site. I'm sold once you get going down here (Australia). Signed up with Edinburgh to practice ;) Now I wish I lived there. BTW, I'd love to see the long tail get taken care of properly. That's what I'm really interested in. I'd probably use a 'what's on tomorrow' page for small shows 100X more then a 'what's on this month' page for $100 + shows. Any way crack away at the RIAA thing.

  Thanks for the votes of confidence! We started with sports because the event information is less prone to fluctuation, but currently I consider TS as more of a proof of concept than anything; this technique can be applied to all sorts of categories and we plan to branch out into concerts and theatre as soon as we've worked out the current bugs in the system. As Dan has said, look for concerts and theatre within a month or two!
