Gig Door

Most live music is never listed anywhere. It lives on a venue’s own calendar, in a caption, on a flyer taped in a window. We read those.

What Gig Door is

  • One city, one genre, one week. Los Angeles Jazz — seven nights, all of them, on one page. Not “live music near me.”
  • Everyone on stage. Not just the name on the poster. If you follow a drummer, you’ll find their Tuesday gig.
  • Where it came from, and when we last looked. Every listing carries both, so you can judge it yourself instead of trusting us.
  • Honest when it isn’t sure. A night we can’t confirm says so. It doesn’t quietly round up to certain.

What it isn’t

  • Not a ticket seller. We sell nothing, and we take no cut of what you buy anywhere else.
  • Not everywhere. 4 cities are lit. The other 158 say so plainly rather than showing you half a listing.
  • Not a guess. No source, no listing. Nothing invented to fill a quiet Tuesday.
  • Not a feed. Nothing to scroll and no reason to check twice a day.

These sit outside a United States projection. They are in the picker and they are real — international scenes are simply not what opens next.
