Used SeatGeek the other day to find concert tickets, the interface is fantastic.

They also maintain an interesting code+design blog http://chairnerd.seatgeek.com/

Just wanted to point out, we at SeatGeek are of course hiring. Plenty of positions in quite a few places: https://seatgeek.com/jobs

Especially if you're an Operations Engineer or Android Developer, get in touch. My email is in my profile :)

They also have a really nice API: http://platform.seatgeek.com/

I've been working on a predictive model for concert ticket values using their data as a training set.

That's really cool! Do you expect to have something out soon?

Not eminently. There's a few key feature sets I still need before I'm happy with the model. I'll be sure to make a Show HN post when I get something up.

I go to concerts and sports events pretty often and I always use Seatgeek to get an idea of prices and pick up tickets at the last minute. It's a slick app with an overall great experience.

I only heard about SeatGeek after reading this great blog post from them: http://chairnerd.seatgeek.com/high-performance-map-interacti.... Congrats!

I'm all about Gametime.co for sports but looking forward to trying this for a concert.

Good for them. A couple of them are on the CakePHP team and when I was big into that, they were more than helpful. Smart eng team.

Nice - congratulations! I remember when you guys were in the Dreamit office and trying to decide on a name.

Plus one for DreamIt!

Jack and Russ are relentless founders and I'm continually impressed by them. The ticket buying experience through SeatGeek is so easy and is particularly delightful on mobile. Excited to see what they're able to do with this funding.

This is great news, my soon to launch startup will be leveraging their fantastic API heavily for a date planning tool for couples in the near future.

Really well done app. Another solid NYC startup!

I was just at their HQ yesterday - really friendly and open team!

Cool!

Anyone know how I can add my own convention to SeatGeek?

You can add live events at limelight.seatgeek.com, but it's more geared towards smaller bands.

do you mean you run a convention and want to use them to sell the tickets? or just listed?

they don't seem to act as a retailer but more as an aggravation and tracking of secondary markets

Cool, thanks. Just listing, we have ticketing covered.

Congrats Jack and Russ!

Great news for the founders! It's a bittersweet experience for me, I had an interview call a year ago but they cancelled because I needed work authorization :|
