Main page needs to be totally revamped and clarified.
There is no descriptions of anything here, very powerful tool, I love it, just very much a "Figure it out yourself!!" website.
Checkout Pandora.com
they have everything explained there in like a slideshow sort of way when you first sign up.Would make your website MUCH more popular if people didn't have to work at making it work for them. People are idiots, you have to spell stuff out for them or they will get bored or frustrated and leave.

Hi, you can pause the map animation by hovering your mouse above any of the bubbles that appear. (I know, it’s not explained well!)
Also, scroll down to see the non-moving list below the map :-) -

Have a real REST API to your data
Have your APIs return XML or JSON (preferably both) so others can build further on your data (with proper attribution of course).
Your example API : http://gruvr.com/?bandkey=alanis%20morissette

This one should be fairly simple to do, it’s on our list, hopefully for this summer.

Fix Bug: "Remove" icon does not work
The "Remove" icon (as in, to remove a band from your radar) does not work. I'm referring to the X alongside each band name in my radar section. When I select it, nothing happens. There needs to be a way to remove bands!

Shows don't include same bands' shows in my town
Interesting site. Looking at a way to incorporate it in our business. Noticed that there are no shows listed in my immediate town. I am identified by proper city name (Valparaiso, IN), but a show like Jeremy Camp in Aurora, IL, 2/26 shows up but not his 2/28 show on 2/28. Same w/Skillet 3/4 in IL is there, 3/6 in Valparaiso and 3/5 in Lafayette, IN don't show up. Is there something I need to adjust?

Hi – what format would this require – iCal listings?
-
figure out addresses and time zones.
I want to like your site, but really ... email reminders come after the shows start (is this a time zone problem?) and today the map for Project Pitchfork shows them in Europe, the US and Columbia, but the list shows only Germany and Romania???? Add to that the complete lack of understanding of German addresses and what is close to me. Argh!

Make sure your sellers don't cheat us!
I bought tickets for my sister and her husbands birthday for the U2 show last year. The show was postponed and now a year later I don't have tickets!! I tried contacting Tix and More many times by phone and e-mail, but never a response. They are a rip-off company and Gruvr should take more responsibility to ensure their customers are not treated this way. Until then, I'll go somewhere else where they do care.

provide driving directions to shows
when you have the street address, let us print out the google driving directions to the show

This is something that is definitely in the plan. We can’t do it for all shows, since the information provided is often not detailed enough, so we have to detect the addresses for which directions are possible. Hopefully we’ll get something going this summer.

How many bands can I track?
How many bands can I track? I have about 50 up and I can't seem to add more! Also, it is unfortunate that if a band is not touring I can't add them for future tracking; or is there a trick? Is there a way to get around the need to use the same IP?

filter results add venues to your search
unfortunately you need to make some filtering software. Someone has figured out how manipulate the search results. Today 11 events are listed for boca raton, fl. "The Dillengers" are 6 of them and "The fabulons" are 4. This is now a useless site for me.
Add venues as well as artists. I know of a bar that has bands every Friday and Saturday and they are never listed on your site.

stop using Myspace as the bands don't update there any more. I love this app
stop using Myspace events, as the bands don't update there any more. I love this app, just not sure how I can display local and regional bands as well as national acts.

Hi, you can create a band profile on myspace (if one doesn’t already exist), post the dates on there, then do Add Band on gruvr. It also helps to put up a tour-map widget on the myspace page to let gruvr know you want to be actively mapped.
