I'm looking for a alert service that lets you know when different concerts are going to be in your area (my area is pretty broad VA, WV, NC, MD... I don't mind driving). If you happen to know of one please let me know (especially if they are Metal, mosh, thrash, or punk specific). i missed a Trivium show because i didn't know the other band and wasn't aware they were playing till after the show.

Hi BlackSpyder
I use http://www.ticketmaster.com/

On the right see My Ticketmaster. Create an account. Then you can set alerts by a rage of topics. Band ,Event, Venue etc,,
They will email you Alerts.

I don't know if StubHub works by you
http://www.stubhub.com/concert-tickets/

I also have my name on local venue websites eg Beacon Theatre,NYC

How do I get help? Who is helping me?

The online radio i use, Last.fm, recommends concerts near you based of what songs are in your library (all the songs that have ever been played on your account). I believed it also recommends artists similar to what is in your library.

Grace is given freely, but respect must be earned.

yeah if i could use last.FM I'd be in great shape but streaming music over a dial up connection is a bad idea. (It still scrobbles my played files though)
