        IList<IEvent> events = API.Instance.Search().ByBand("A Band").List();

        API.Configure(conf => {
            conf.APIKey = "Your Jambase API key";
        });

        //Or, you can use your own implementation of the IConfigurator interface, which means you must create 
        //a class that defines a public method called Configure that takes an instance of a class implementing
        //the IAPI interface

        private class MyCustomConfigurator : IConfigurator

            }
        }

        //To configure the API object with your custom configurator:
        API.Configure(new MyCustomConfigurator());

        //Additionally, within the Configure method, you can override the default way in which the API is 
        //called by providing your own implementation of IWebConnection that requires you to create a class 
        //that defines a method called MakeRequest(String url)
    
        //As well, you can override the default way in which events are built by defining your own 
        //implementation of IEventBuilder, which requires that you define a method called Build(String xml), 
        //that returns an IList of IEvent objects.

        //This sort of customization would look like this:
        API.Configure(conf => {
            conf.APIKey = "Your Jambase API key";
            conf.Builder = new YourCustomBuilder();
            conf.Connection = new YourCustomConnection();
        });

        //To make use of the library after configuration, it's quite straightforward:
    
        //By Band
        IList<IEvent> eventsByBand = API.Instance.Search().ByBand("Some Band").List();

        //By User
        IList<IEvent> eventsByUser = API.Instance.Search().ByUser("A User").List();

        //By zip/postal code
        IList<IEvent> eventsByZip = API.Instance.Search().ByZipCode("90210").List();

        //By radius - distance from a specified postal code
        IList<IEvent> eventsByZipAndRadius = API.Instance.Search().ByZipCode("90210").ByRadius(50).List();

        //By zip/postal code, band and user
        IList<IEvent> event = API.Instance.Search().ByZipCode("90210").ByBand("A Band").ByUser("A
            User").List();

        //All calls to List() return an IList<IEvent> (although it may be an empty list, if there are no 
        //results)

        //Events have a Venue and a collection of Artists
        foreach(IEvent evt in events)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("EventID: {0}", evt.ID);
            Console.WriteLine("Venue Name: {0}", evt.Venue.Name);
            foreach(IArtist artist in evt.Artists)
            {
                Console.WriteLine("Artist: {0}", artist.Name);
            }
