Our Price recommendations vs. Theirs

We have to admit, Star Tribune has been doing a lot better at staying in their lane. Recommending a lot more $30 bands at venues with $30 ticket prices, instead of $2 bands opening for $10 bands at venues with $30 cover charges.

But ST ain't perfect--yet.

Terrible Band Names

We at HVLM are very good at tracking down music samples for even very obscure local bands.

There are some band names Google can find just knowing that it is the name of a band, but there are others that confuse Google because there are too many competing references.
