One of the problems bands solve while planning tours is organizing shared gigs with some local band[s] of choice. It usually helps to establish your position on the scene (if artist X plays on a gig with artist Y you're safe to assume they share some musical similarities). This way bands share and expand their audiences.
Oh my, is it hard to find suitable local bands ready to play on given dates! If a platform could track bands that are ready to play in a specific location on certain dates and offered this to other bands (possibly, only to a whitelist of bands/genres), that would be great.
The more I think of it, the more I see it could be useful not only to touring bands. At the moment, most multi-act gigs are organized by venues, some system which promotes inter-band planning could give more control to performers.
