If you hadn't already noticed, in this new site you can search for shows by date on the <a href='http://viennateng.com/tour' target='_blank'>tour page</a>.

Now you can also search for shows by their distance to a zipcode.

<a href='http://viennateng.com/tour/index.php?query-radius=50&zip=94301' target='_blank'>This search</a>, for instance, returns every show within 50 miles of 94301, which is Palo Alto. There's no date in the search, so it includes every show since we switched to the fancy-schmancy database.

<a href='http://viennateng.com/tour/index.php?start-date=2004-03-03&end-date=&query-radius=10&zip=02108' target='_blank'>This search</a> returns every show from today until ... like 2035 or something ... within 10 miles of 02108 (Boston). (I can never think of Boston without thinking of one of the Car Talk guys saying "Boston, *mah*".)

Coming soon: automatic show listings based on the zipcode you entered when you signed up for the email list. (You *did* sign up for the email list, didn't you? ;) )

I'm such a geek. :)
