LOS ANGELES, Jan. 9 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- LiveNation.com, the
online destination of the world's largest live music company, unveiled
today "My Live Nation," a suite of software tools which enables fans to
customize their Live Nation search pages to receive concert recommendations
tailored to their specific musical tastes. In addition, the new initiative
will allow fans to set their preferences with regard to how they receive
concert information from Live Nation.
The announcement was made earlier today by Live Nation Global Digital
Chief Executive Officer, Bryan Perez, at Billboard Magazine's Digital Music
Live! conference at the 2008 International CES convention in Las Vegas,
Nevada.
My Live Nation is a significant step in the development of additional
fan-friendly products from LiveNation.com. With new tools like My Live
Nation Calendar, My Favorites (Artists and Venues) and My Locations, music
fans can customize their LiveNation.com search pages with just a few
keystrokes, tailoring the world's most powerful concert search engine to
fit with their own musical tastes.
"Our goal for LiveNation.com is to focus on the fan and address their
needs first," said Mr. Perez. "One of the reasons most often cited by fans
for missing shows is that they simply weren't aware of them. With My Live
Nation, we are making it simple and easy for them to keep up with
information on their favorite artists, venues and cities, and giving them
control over how we communicate that information to them in the most
convenient way, whether it's online, through email or text messages."
Music fans can customize their LiveNation.com search page by entering
their favorite artists and venues, or simply by enabling the page to sync
with their iTunes music library. Live Nation expects to enable fans to sync
their My Live Nation with other popular music networks and applications
later in the year. Once music fans set up their favorites list, they can
elect to receive concert updates through email alerts, e-newsletters, text
messages or on their customized LiveNation.com search page.
LiveNation.com is a leading destination for music fans. LiveNation.com
is a live music search engine which provides information to fans around the
world on tour dates, artists and venues, and also serves as an important
access point for concert tickets for registered ticket club members, VIP
parking and club access. Collectively, Live Nation's websites are the
second most visited event websites in the United States, according to
Nielson//NetRatings.
