This is fire. Could you provide a little detail on how you found all this information from such a wide variety of events? Oftentimes me and my girlfriend just look at one TimeOut lists for the coming weekend, but you have some really awesome stuff that would never be on there

The starting point is a gigantic list of NYC venues and performing groups that I have personally saved as a folder of bookmarks. Many are places I've been and groups I've seen, but by no means all. I assembled it a while ago but never had an outlet to use it! After that it was trying a variety of search terms like "solo recital NYC," "NYC society events," and "2023 tour dates NYC."

TimeOut is nice, but it doesn't account for many small, niche venues, and it is just insane how much there is to do in this city!
