So I’ve started getting into fan cam footage from live band shows posted by some dude in Japan (Tokyo I think) which has exposed me to music/bands I dig that otherwise would have never, EVER crossed my radar (shoutout to q23 on Youtube)

This got me thinking: what other music could I discover by putting in ‘Live at [x]’, in the appropriate language, in Youtube (bonus points if someone can point me to another service or someone on Peertube or something)?

Will share my own venue list for Ottawa, ON Canada in the comments later today/tomorrow.

    Will probably update as I think of more/add common genre family tags. If other Ottawans (the like between three or five of you I know are here) see this and want to add something, particularly for the defunct list, let me know.
