Shows concert finder gets new detail view, iPhone 5 and iOS 6 love

Shows by developer Sam Vermette, the best way to keep track of all the concert dates for the musical artists you love, has just been update with a brand new detail view, as well as support for the iPhone 5 and iPod touch 5 16:9 display, and iOS 6.

However, that silver lining does come along with some dark clouds -- Rdio sync support has been removed, though Vermette says he's working with them to bring it back. You can still sync with last.fm, iTunes, and Facebook.

If you haven't used Shows yet, you can browse by Artist or date to find concerts near you, or just search for anything you like. Shows also sends you push notifications whenever a new concert date is announced within your pre-defined radius. And you can easily favorite those concert places and times you're most interested in, and share over Facebook, Twitter, Messages, or Mail.

If you have used Shows, go grab the update and let me know what you think.
