The combination of tour/gig management with inventory/product management and a central calendar is pretty damn fresh.
At World Around, we’ve been using Bandcamp for over a year to get our site off the ground and keep the project intact. I was definitely skeptical of this program but the features are pretty much a wish list for us…anyone already using it have some feedback to offer?
