Music Man leverages the SongKick API to allow you to ask two types of questions - (1) where your favorite artist or band is playing next, or (2) what shows are coming to your favorite venue. See examples below on how to phrase your question. With thousands of artists and venues, each with multiple words, try some of the different examples below if you don't get an expected reply.
Here are some common variations for getting ARTIST information: "Alexa, ASK The Music Man:" - where {artist} is playing - when {artist} is playing - when is {artist} playing - when are {artist} playing - where {artist} are playing - when {artist} are playing
Here are some common variations for getting VENUE/LOCATION information: "Alexa, ASK The Music Man:" - who's coming to {venue} - who is coming to {venue} - who's playing at {venue} - who is playing at {venue}
For each of the above, if you'd like to get information only for a particular month, finish your request by adding " in {month}", e.g. - where is Iron Maiden playing in July - who's coming to Staples Center in February - etc.
