I'm trying to think around how to create an interactive list of local bands and local venues. I want to include Band pages that would include Name, member list, types of music, bio, over or under 21, e-mail contact, link to the bands site, and the ability to embed a YouTube video. I want it to be editable by the owner and search able by the general public. I also would like the ability to rate the band or write a review. Secondary I would like to have a similar list of venues with address, max occupancy, e-mail, phone, contact person,and a google map. Later I would like to add the ability for bands and venues to cross post times and dates of gigs. I would also like to have a forum where people can post reviews, band tryouts, etc. that everyone can access. Is there a good module to start with? I already have some experience with creating a site with forums and allowing people to create content, but I am a bit lost on how to create user generated pages that are associated with a user, or a group of users, but viewable and search able to all.

I built these and starting to grow the userbase - the whole plan is to get venues, bands and promoters working together sharing a common platform.
That way we can gain more insights about what the same users are interested in - great benefit to the industry.
Where are you based and what are your plans?

Awesome idea. Im working on
Awesome idea. Im working on something similar ; ) coming soon
Looks exactly like something
Looks exactly like something I'm working on at a local level for the Triad of NC. MickC, would you mind talking about how you've set your site up, maybe something like a showcase on it? I'm not trying to steal any ideas or anything, but there are a couple kinks I'm having and wouldn't mind talking them out and listening to how others have worked around them.
Cheers!
Sure, but maybe if you
Sure, but maybe if you elaborate on the kinks we can focus the discussion. The basic setup is that each artist is an OG, and there are a number of content types all set up, with roles to access them. I'm using OG roles so a group owner has permissions only within the group to create and edit content, manage the permissions. There's quite a but more under the hood, but basically all Drupal modules.
What issues are you having?
