DO put the most critical information (dates, times, works, performers, venue) someplace easy to locate.

Just make it easy to find.To elaborate on this, put that information in the cover email. Don't make people download a PDF just to find out the date and location (i.e. the CITY) of the concert you're publicizing. And include the day of the week as well as the date.
