Get a profile that lives on the map so fans can find you between shows. The Pit Every event has its own live chat room. Open it before the show to find friends, during the show to share what you are seeing, and after to keep the night going. The room closes a few hours after the venue closes so the moment stays the moment. Two cities at launch The Beat Drop is live in Atlanta and Denver. More cities are coming. If you are outside our cities, you can still post events and we will route them to whoever is closest. Built for the underground We started this app because the best shows in a city are almost never the ones at the top of search results. The Beat Drop puts small rooms, house shows, late sets, and the artists you have not heard yet at the same level as the big venues. Your taste, your city, in real time.
