Rock on, Commonwealth of Nations!

By stevel stevel Permalink

Thanks to some awesome work by Songkick, the Songbird Concerts add-on now supports concert listings in Canada, Australia, and New Zealand!

Commonwealth of Nations, FTW!
If you’re in any of said countries, you can either just wait for the locations to be automatically refreshed (they refresh once per week – you may already have them!), or you can go force a manual refresh by following these instructions:

  1. Go to the advanced prefs editor by opening a new tab in Songbird and typing ‘about:config’ in the URL bar
  2. Modify the extensions.concerts.locations.lastupdated preference and set it to 0
  3. Restart Songbird

You can then just go to your Concert listings page, and click on the pencil icon at the top right hand corner to change your location and see the new cities for Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.

    Nice! I hope old Europe will be integrated soon, too. :-)

    Yeah I’m waiting for Europe too !
    Maybe you can use Last.FM feed for Europe concerts ?

    There will be no concert listings in Zimbabwe until they return to democracy. So says the Queen.

    No St. John’s, Newfoundland? :(

    St. Johns should appear now, as well as a few other cities we missed. You’ll need to force a refresh again as stated in the post above.

    thanks

    You rock!

    It would be nice, if there was a radius option. Such as 50mile radius of Manchester, UK. Which would include Birmingham. Sometimes good bands are worth the extra mile……..
