De-dupe and standardize data
I would prefer a focus on completely de-duping and standardizing the existing data before adding any new features.
97 votesHi everybody, I thought I'd give you all an update on this one.
We've done a lot of work on this over the last couple of years, but this is the sort of project that is going to be ongoing pretty far into the future.
Things that have been done:
- Added the 'Report Issue' functionality to the website (in the navigation) where users can report duplicates that they come across
- Added admin tools to merge duplicate Bands/Venues/Locations/Concerts when we find them or when a user reports them.
- Created 'aliases' behind the scenes for Bands/Venues/Locations so that any duplicates that we merge won't pop up again in the future as duplicates.
- We now verify locations against the external Geonames database to standardize them.
- Implemented a location verification step after a concert is created to prompt the user to verify and standardize the location that they entered.
- Reviewed all of the locations…

Group together Venues that have changed names
Venues change names over the years do to new ownership, remodels or sponsor changes. There should be option to link former venue names together cause it is the same place. Example Blockbuster Desert Sky Pavillion changed to Cricket Pavillion, then Ashley Home Furnature Pavillion, now it is Ak-Chin Pavillion (All Same Place). So now you've seen 30 shows at the same venue instead of 5 shows at six different named venues!
72 votesWe have a feature planned where we'll be able to group Venues & Bands in the future to do this. We don't have an ETA on that, it'll probably be awhile, but we'll get there 😅

Interactive Map!
Much like the old Instagram feature, users would be able to see their concert locations on an interactive map. Would be able to zoom in and out and see how many times they attended a show at a certain location.

"Who did you go with" without e-mail addresses
I love the "who did you go with" feature but I can't use it because I don't have e-mail addresses of many of them (especially for my early concerts in the '90s-'00s..) or because I don't want to involve them (I'd prefer a "invite friends" option for that). If there's some privacy issues I suggest to not write complete names: es. John S. for John Smith.
47 votesWe're planning to do this as well as make it easier to interact with other users on the platform in general. No ETA yet, but we'll get there 😅

Add a REST API
Provide a REST API so that third party developer tools, or programmers wishing to tinker with automation, can automatically / programmatically enter data and get information from your website via programming languages that support REST-ful APIs

More analytics
Automatically generate favorite genre, months most likely to go to shows, a timelines visually showing the number of concerts seen per month/year, this is a long shot, but scrape concert ticket prices to show how much you invest in concerts

Change the verbiage 'Bands' to 'Artists'
I go to a variety of shows of many genres. I would consider a lot of these either DJs, singers, rappers, etc. Not all fall under the category of band.

Fixing or Editing Setlists
What if you know the setlist and it is either wrong or none listed? There should be a way for users to edit it directly from this website. Like for the band Hanson there is a website dedicated to keeping information about their tours and that’s where I check to see if the setlists on this website are correct.
33 votesHi everybody 👋
It seems there are 2 different topics being discussed here.
- The issue where setlists get incorrectly loaded for certain bands. This is usually for bands with a common name like DYLAN and Queen. We released a backend feature recently to fix these! If you come across any more examples you can email us at [email protected] and we can easily get those artists' setlists properly linked up!
- The second request is for users to be able to manually edit a setlist. We're planning to add this in the future but it hasn't made it to the top of our roadmap and priority list yet. I know it sounds like a simple feature, but there are a lot of pieces and user interface to build out for this. We'll get there, but as a tiny, self-funded team we can only take on so many projects at a time 😅

Different features for festivals
I think there should be a checkbox for a show vs. a festival. With this, if it is a festival, having a breakdown by stage (in the order the bands played the stages) would be nice to have.
31 votesAdding features specifically for festivals is something we definitely want to do!
Please post your ideas about what features you’d like to see and we’ll take them under consideration when we start our planning for this.
Thank you!

Separate band list per day when multiple days concert/festival is enabled
It would be nice when you mark multiple days, to have a band list per day.
pros:
- you will be able to mark the real day you see the bands.
- you will be able to create a more accuracy bands order as recommended in the guidelines.cons:
- none :)30 votes -

Ability to add a band twice to the same concert
i.e. when a band plays two sets the same day of a festival. Currently it only counts as seeing the band once.
29 votesWhile it’s possible to add a band to a concert multiple times currently, it doesn’t function the way you would expect (as some people have pointed out in the comments).
In particular, if you add the band twice, it still only counts as seeing them once in your stats. There are also some other minor things like when you mark one of the instances seen/unseen it automatically marks all instances for that band.
This is on our roadmap to fix but since it’s a fairly rare situation it’s pretty low on our list at the moment behind things like data cleanup, etc.
Thanks for surfacing this idea/bug!

let us add a tour poster to concerts in a designated spot not just the area for photos
I want to be able to see a tour poster for a concert to remember where they went on that tour and even just what the poster looked like but it would be nice to have in a place other than concert photos since it's not really something taken at the show but promotion for the show

Duplicate Event warning
If you add the same event twice to your list by accident you will get a notification about duplicate events.
28 votesThis is on our roadmap. We’re working a lot on addressing duplicates now and doing it in stages. First was duplicate Locations which is done. We’re almost done with duplicate Venues. Then will be duplicate Bands and duplicate Concerts last.
In this process we’re cleaning up a lot of the existing duplicates and also adding verification checks when you add a new concert.

Exclude future concerts from concert counts
Currently the # of concerts I have "been to" or "seen" includes future concerts, is it possible to only include concerts that have already happened?

Possibilty to add othe types (no concerts) to your archive, such as theaters or operas, ...

Social Media Integration
Add a social share/social media integration with Facebook, twitter, instagram, etc. I recently received a concert archive email with the show where I met my wife 11 years ago. It would be interesting to be able to post that via social media. I feel like that sort of feed would generate a lot of interest in this site as well.

allow you to check which day(s) you attended multi-day concerts
I've gone to several multi-day festivals and they only count as one concert. It would be nice to check that I went to day 1 of a festival, or all days, etc. and have that count as separate concerts.

Better Interface for capturing festival information
Loving the site and it's helping me get rid of my really long spreadsheet finally.
I go to lots of festivals and I feel like the interface works really well for single day concerts but not so well for festivals. Some feedback and issues listed below:
- It would be nice to state what day of the festival the band played, so Slipknot played on day 1 of the festival for example. Or if they played multiple times, then Day 1 and 2.
- it would be nice to be able to mark an event as a festival, which enables different features.

Editing Bands on Edit Concert Page
If I made a typo typing in a band's name, I cannot edit the band's name in the 'edit concert' page. I must remove bands and re-add them individually.
