You need to use spotify.com in the browser to fetch security bits, therefore the script is "unstable" and will fail if Spotify decides to change the way their requests work

directions

• Open Spotify in browser
• Login
• open developer console network tab
• on page, click on artist - example URL: https://open.spotify.com/artist/3BJX1nYizKvWpZTY5HOAr4
• on page, click on "View all upcoming concerts"
• in network tab, search for "artistConcerts"
• fetch_str: from Headers tab, copy Request URL value
• authorization and client_token: from Headers tab, copy Authorization and Client-Token values
