How will this application get initial data #7 #1

How will this application get initial data? At the moment, shows, venues, and artists must be added through the administrator console. Focus on the Twin Cities and figure out a programmatic method of getting data for shows, (ideas: write a web scraper for First-Avenue.com and other popular venues, or maybe there's an API you can use?)

Issue transferred from LincT/lmn repo. Project 5 split into two applications - the main app lmn(op) and lmn_api (a web scrapper, database loader, and API for lmn to call for fresh artists, venues, notes, & shows table entries.

The initial version of the web scrapping module has been posted to this repo. The team has been informed and a document written that describes the program and how to load the JSON files.

Copied to pi6220/lmnop - new project created to handle the API calls. The new project will also hold the webscrapper and DB loader.
