Citysearch already have a comedy listing page for all the states - but again, but it relies on submissions so you'll have some agencies bothering, some not. It kinda brings it back to square one.
If we want a truly representative gig guide you'd need someone to do all the following up, which is something I tried for ComedyLive when I first started. And the way the scene is at the moment, it could be at least a part time job (3 days a week). And if you did try to make the site fully representative you wouldn't therefore be able to make money off it. What a catch-22 situation!
but it does give me some ideas... hmmm...
Have a look at Chortle (UK comedy website) for a good representative comedy gig guide. I might make enquires as to how they make their money, cause THAT website IS a full-time job.
