School's out for summer, which means barbecues, swimming pools, and summer concert tours from many of your favorite bands. There's nothing quite like the experience of live music, so in this post, we've put together a list of five essential Android apps for concertgoers.

Find concerts
Don't miss shows from your favorite bands because you didn't know they were in town. Gigbeat is a nice music listing app that can scan your Last.fm, Rdio, and Songkick accounts, to come up with a list of your favorite artists to track. You can also have it scan local music files on your Android phone or just enter the artists in manually. Gigbeat can notify you of upcoming events and new tour dates, based on your location. If Gigbeat doesn't meet your fancy, also take a look at Gigbox, Songkick, and Bandsintown.
