Unfortunately, I'm still in the process of tracking down the root cause of the problem, and I'll post here again when the issue is identified. In the meantime, you can continue to work with Pipes -- if its Location Extractor module doesn't work, you can use the Rename module to copy the latitude and longitude information from the original source and place it in standard RSS elements such as title and description which GME can read. Unfortunately, since Pipes does not support the inclusion of arbitrary external namespaces (as far as I can tell), you are limited to these basic elements. Of course, ideally, you should be able to use Eventful's RSS and Atom feeds direclty, and I'll continue to explore the original problem. Thanks for your patience!

I tried to use Yahoo Pipes to get the feed. I am somewhat successful, but the Geo coordinates are missing from the resulting feed. I want that info so I can mash it with Google Maps.

Jason,
Thanks for the prompt reply. I tried using the feed's Atom and RSS versions, but neither worked. The RSS version came up blank, and the Atom is deemed as malformed by GME.
Atom:http://api.evdb.com/rest/events/atom/search?app_key=WsB8jSdV9hCDZ2TV&... RSS:http://api.evdb.com/rest/events/rss/search?app_key=WsB8jSdV9hCDZ2TV&k...
What to do?
Thanks!

Hi, and welcome to the group! At this time, GME can only pull RSS- and Atom-formatted feeds; since your source is not formatted as either, the Feed Browser displays an empty feed. While there are no plans to extend support for arbitrary XML content, you should be able to use Yahoo! Pipes or another similar tool to transform the arbitrary XML into an RSS feed, which can then be pulled into GME. For several examples of how to do this, see the GME mashup Jookebox, which uses Pipes to display Amazon search results in a GME list.
