• requesting by one or more web bots said social media data from said one or more social media websites by sending one or more requests to said one or more social media servers;
• requesting by one or more web bots said music data from said one or more music streaming servers by sending one or more requests to said one or more music streaming servers;
• parsing received social media data by one or more web bots received from the one or more social media servers and the music data by the one or more web bots received from the one or more music streaming servers to obtain a predetermined information data set;
• accessing stored and live data through said one or more performance venue APIs by sending one or more predetermined data requests to the one or more performance venue APIs based upon one or more predetermined conditions;
• storing in a digital event calendar one or more events regarding one or more performances at said one or more performance venues;
• storing one or more triggers to collect performance data related to the one or more events;
• aggregating and validating data obtained via said one or more social media APIs and said one or more performance venue APIs to create an overall rating for each of said one or more performance artists;
• and
• displaying said overall rating on said reference web page for each of said one or more performance artists;
• calculating said overall rating by:
• (i) determining a social media page strength value for one or more social media sites;
• (ii) determining a music strength value based on one or more music streaming sites;
• (iii) determining a performance strength value;
• (iv) determining an attendance strength value;
• (v) determining a draw strength value;
• (vi) determining a reliability strength value;
• (vii) summing the social media page strength value, the music strength value, the performance strength value, the attendance strength value, the draw strength value;
• and the reliability strength value to obtain an overall strength value;
• (viii) determining a tier maximum value;
• and (ix) dividing the overall strength value by a tier maximum value to obtain the overall rating;
• and
• performing a user specified search for new talent in response to a user initiated query entered via an electronic data review system query page having a plurality of user selectable filters to enable a user to search for new talent by selecting one or more of the plurality of user selectable filters;
• wherein upon an occurrence of a particular event at a particular performance venue stored on the digital event calendar:
• activating one of the one or more triggers, each of which causes the automated data collection and retrieval system to send said one or more predetermined data requests to a particular performance venue API related to the particular performance venue;
• and
• wherein if a particular performance venue does not have a performance venue API when a particular one of the one or more triggers is activated:
• sending automatically an email to the performance venue with a link to a predetermined website at which a data collection form can be downloaded so the particular performance venue can manually input any required data using the data collection form;
• and
• sending a notification, upon receipt of a completed data collection form for a particular performance event, to the digital event calendar;
• and
• removing the particular one of the one or more triggers to prevent the particular one of the one or more triggers from repeating.
