Expandable Concert Areas

I live in Charlotte, North Carolina, which is notorious for being a second or third tier concert city. This means I often have to drive to Raleigh, Durham, Asheville or Atlanta for concerts.

 

Spotify only allows me to have one "home city" for shows. I currently have it set to Atlanta, which means I get lots of shows that interest me, but zero local shows. If I set it to Charlotte, I get local shows, but 98% of them don't interest me and I miss all the shows that are only coming to Atlanta or Asheville. It's especially annoying when an artist like Kraftwerk or Japanese Breakfast plays both Atlanta AND Charlotte, and I'll have no idea until I check their website.

 

There's a concert tour tracking app called "BandsInTown". It only allows you one home city, too... but it allows you to expand your search up to a 150 mile radius. I have it set for Greenville, South Carolina as my home city with the maximum radius. That way it covers Charlotte, Asheville and Atlanta\Athens. 

 

It would be cool if Spotify had a similar feature.
