If music be the food of love, then Mogwai is a ready meal for one

Valentines Day has reared it’s head once again as a nice reminder for all the single folks out there that they are still totally alone. Never fear though, Songkick and our pals over at Tastebuds.fm are here to save you from the prospect of lonely nights in looking at Breaded Cats.

We’ve mashed up their data with ours to point you in the right direction of which concerts are most likely to be a hot spot for potential romance (you might have to alter your usual musical tastes, but in the name of love and all…).

First up, according to the Tastebuds.fm survey, here are the top 5 artists whose fans are most likely to make a move at a concert:

1) Kid Cudi

2) The Offspring

3) Maroon 5

4) Avenged Sevenfold

5) Korn

The rest of the top artists were also interestingly skewed towards rock and metal, with fans of Marilyn Manson, Rammstein and Guns N’ Roses featuring high on the list. Who knew those rockers were such softies at heart eh.

Without further ado, here’s our pick of the top upcoming 5 shows you should go to to get chatted up at in February:

Korn / Congress Theater, Chicago / 24 Feb

Rammstein / O2 Arena, London / 24 Feb

Marilyn Manson / Enmore Theatre, Sydney / 29 Feb

Guns N’ Roses / Webster Hall, New York / 15 Feb

Moby (DJ set) / Vessel, San Francisco / 16 Feb

And at the other end of the spectrum, just to keep things balanced, here are the Top 5 artists whose fans are least likely to chat someone up…

1) Mogwai

2) Explosions in the Sky

3) Yeasayer

4) M83

5) Broken Social Scene

Towards the bottom of the list, there’s a definite leaning towards post-rock fans, and a smattering of other reflective indie types including Neutral Milk Hotel, Deerhunter and Belle and Sebastian.

So if you want to remain a loner, or you’re happily taken, here’s our pick of the top upcoming 5 shows in February you can go to to avoid getting chatted up at:

M83 / Shepherd’s Bush Empire, London / 16 Feb

Feist / Fairgrounds, Jakarta / 15 Feb

Sleigh Bells / 9:30 Club, Washington / 16 Feb

Bombay Bicycle Club / El Rey Theatre, Los Angeles / 15 Feb

Morrissey / Movistar Arena, Santiago / 26 Feb

And finally, because we all love a good festival romance story, here are the Top festivals to go to in the summer to find that special someone:

1) Rock am Ring 2012

2) Rock Werchter 2012

3) Download Festival 2012

4) Rock in Rio Lisboa 2012
