Boston Live Music & Comedy
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Find your next show tonight.
Every live concert and comedy show in Greater Boston — thousands of events across 300+ venues, updated daily. No account needed.
DISCOVER SHOWS YOUR WAY
Filter by genre, venue, neighborhood, price, date range, and all-ages. Toggle between music and comedy or browse both. Staff picks and trending shows are in there too.
REAL-TIME SHOW CHAT
Every show has its own foochat room. Ask who's going, make plans, or just talk about the lineup.
YOUR PERSONAL SHOW DETECTIVE
Tell footective when you're free, how you're getting there, and what you're in the mood for. It learns what you like from your saved shows and tells you what to see next — and why.
YOUR MUSIC DNA
Your concert history, broken down by genre, venue, and neighborhood. Import past shows from Setlist.fm to round out your profile.
GO WITH FRIENDS
Add friends, see what they're saving, and filter to shows your crew is going to. The feed shows friend activity and which shows are getting attention.
MAP VIEW
Every venue on a map with show counts. Or find what's near you right now.
BUILT FOR iPHONE
Widgets. Siri Shortcuts. Spotlight search. Haptic feedback. Dark mode. Universal links. Native iOS, not a web wrapper.
Works without an account. Create one to save shows, chat, add friends, and sync across devices.

foobos has a new front door. Home now opens to your shows: follow curated collections, build and share your own show lists, and compose a search with quick chips for when, where, and what you're in the mood for.
Notifications got a full rebuild — show reminders now arrive reliably (even for shows you save same-day), and you can turn on alerts when artists you've saved announce new Boston shows.
The venue map is smarter too: nearby venues now group into clusters as you zoom out — tap one to see every show in that area.
Also new: quick polls and messages from the foobos team on Home, plus dozens of reliability and performance fixes.
