Websites

     I was trying to find out what bands were playing in the area and, of course, I went on the Internet. I tried some of the businesses that I knew had live entertainment. Here is what I found...

     The website has a calendar of events with only a few bands listed for the next five months. Their Facebook has no schedule.

     Cimmeron Bar and Grill

     I can not find their website or find them on Facebook or My Space. I did find them on www.witowns.com . You have to click on Products and Services Directory and go under Friday Night Fish Fry. All they say is, "Live music on Fridays and Saturdays. I know Cimmeron has open mic or bands on Wednesday nights but, there is no mention of this.

     Plan B

     Tap Haus has four months of music scheduled. Their Facebook has February and past events.
 
     The next two places I found through the Fox Cities' "Saving Cash Magazine". J.J. Maloney's advertises live entertainment Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. When I checked out their website they were not up to date. They had 2 bands listed for 12/31/2010 and 1/22/2011. I submitted my email address for up-dates but as of this posting I haven't received any.
     J.J. Maloney's

     The next coupon was for Tanners Grill and Bar. According to the Fox Cities' "Saving Cash Magazine", they have music every Tuesday and Thursday. The day I did my research they had two listings for up-coming bands on a Thursday and a Friday. No Tuesday listing. I clicked on 'See All Up-Coming Events' and nothing was listed there. One thing I did like about Tanner's web site is they do include the bands contact information.

     As you can see, some of these web sites you can't get the information you need. Would it help get more people to come listen to the bands if they were up-to-date? How else can these businesses improve their web sites? Contact these businesses and let them know what you think and what you would like them to include in their information.
