>"Do you like Blink 182? Turns out they are actually touring again and they are in your city next weekend. Buy tickets now"

I don't like Blink 182, but there have been many times when a band I would have liked to see was in my city and I didn't find out until too late. LiveNation has a feature to warn you about upcoming concerts but it doesn't work well in my experience.

Honestly, it would be really nice to have actual useful advertising like this, but instead we mostly get abusive and intrusive advertising.
