Guys go plug in the shows youve been to and see your stats!

shame there aren't more bands on there. Checking it out though.

I am a dork and already keep a spread sheet on all bands I have seen live more than 5 times.

*actually that site took forever just to track down the shows I was looking for and some didn't even have setlists...probably won't be going back.  :undecided:

I am good friends with owner of this site.  He is a huge phish and biscuits fan and would happily accept any information that he could add to older set lists for stats.   Amazing site for other bands but since MMJ is new to the mix it will take some building.

Sorry and no offense to your friend but that site is in no way amazing to me. Especially the Phish board. Unless you think a cesspool of trolls talking shit and going way overboard nasty is amazing. Just look at the thread welcoming MMJ to PT from Glace.  Two of the first 6-7 posts tell him to kill himself, and another mocks him by calling it a cash grab.  :rolleyes:

It's a sausage fest of basement dwellers, and can be downright scary reading some posts there.

It is just my opinion/experience that PT is a great for community for other bands.  I personally have meet many people i consider great friends through the site.  There are trolls on almost every board out there and they will continue to be there, but it is what you make of it.  A major difference/factor between those other bands listed on PT and MMJ is that i don't believe that many of the other bands have a great Official board off the bands site like this one.

I'm sure there are some good people over there. It's just been my experience there isn't enough of them. They certainly seem to be in the minority to me but I don't visit all the other bands parts of PT that often. Mostly just the Phish board.

I've got tough skin and don't let that place bother me but it certainly can be rough and for the most part isn't exactly a friendly place to visit, IMO.

I don't think you have tough skin after your rant about a bunch of kids having fun. PT is a great site. Psyched that MMJ is now on it. Stats to be added today!

PT is awful (sans the stats stuff, referring to the forums).  The use of the word 'cesspool' was about the best possible descriptor.  If that's your thing, enjoy!

agreed!  I've actually drifted from this forum in favor of a couple of FB groups that are much easier to interact with.  Try posting a picture here from your phone, right?  And there are some trolls here from time to time - FB is mostly transparent, so people tend to be much more friendly (this can't be said for some phish and dead groups that get trolled all the time by idiots that don't care if you know their name). 

I still check back here a couple times a week just to compare notes and rumors, but FB seems to be winning this race.

(all hail OBF!!)
What's in here won't disappear

Is their another site where you can track your shows and analyze stats about these bands? I get that the Phish discussion board is sophomoric but can't you just ignore that and enjoy the rest of the site for what it is?

that's why I specified what I did in parenthesis.

I didn't look at any discussions and didn't go in the Phish section at all.
I did look at the MMJ shows I've been to though and found missing info there.

I like the idea, and would probably go back if there were artists that I see a lot.
For now though, I'll keep using setlist.fm and my own excel spread sheet.

Rant? Sorry if you took offense to my opinion on that place but you might want to look up the definition of the word rant if you really think that's what my post was.

Also, I question your take on that place if you really think it's just a bunch of kids over there. Throw in we obviously have a different definition of fun, and well.....different strokes. If you're into it, by all means enjoy.   :beer:

Edit to say my posts were only in reference to the forum/message board part. The stats and other band stuff is pretty good.

I've been using Concert Archives (http://www.concertarchives.org/) for a little while now to keep track of the shows I go to. I really like the set-up and you can add photos and other notes to it. Will check out this one, though.

Thanks for another rant. Looks like someone has a case of the Mondays. I'm not easily offended so don't worry about that. I just think some people in this community would appreciate the show tracking capabilities of PT as much as me. I use it for a number of bands already so psyched to see MMJ added. Maybe the negativity for one particular section of the site will stop people from going there and I'm trying to give the other side.

That's fine about giving the other side on that site. I have no problem with that. Unlike you unfortunately who seems to have an issue with me giving people here a heads up not to expect the message board part to be anything like this place we have here.

Have a good Monday.  :thumbsup:  :beer:
