The virtual stage is now bleeding into the real stage, thanks to a trial partnership between OurStage and Live Nation. 

OurStage, essentially an online battle-of-the-bands on steroids, has now become a feeder for Live Nation.  As part of a trial phase, highly-ranked OurStage artists will be considered for opening slots at Live Nation venues in New England, Denver and the San Francisco Bay Area, according to deal points shared Friday. 

The OurStage platform allows fans to continuously select their favorite acts, in one face-off after another.  As part of the newly-created, gig-focused Marketplace, artists can proactively search gigs, and promoters can select more promising performers within various genres and locales.  "At OurStage, we've worked to solve the greatest challenge on the internet: sorting quality content from the sea of mediocrity," explained OurStage chief executive Ben Campbell.
