For you visual learners

Now, I know that many of you cringe when I say I’ve found a new mashup.  Yes, it’s true that I have a love for the homegrown remix and yes, it’s true that I indulge my love for it at HU.

However, I ran across this morning’s post from antimac.org announcing a new mashup — this time, a code mashup between GoogleMaps and several tour history databases.  It seems that the programmer in question has tapped into the SPFC tour database as it covers “A Perfect Circle, Brad, Fuck Buttons, James Iha, Jimmy Chamberlin Complex, Mogwai, Nine Inch Nails, Pearl Jam, Radiohead, The Mars Volta, The Smashing Pumpkins, Tool, and Zwan.”

Though future plans include wikifying the info windows for each entry, perhaps they should join forces with the SPLRA or another well-established group because this is a pretty cool project!  Check it out here:  BandMaps.org
