Thanks for the catch on the venue and I’ve moved all the shows ( about 15 ) to the correct name of Genesee Theater. I appreciate your help!
I'll start working on the new things this weekend. Super busy at work, but I promise I will start getting to these.
Hi. The Steve Hackett bass solo question started in the Forum. Please join in the conversation here:

I'll try to get those Neil Young tour names fixed. Black Flag should be fun. Haven't seen them since the 1984-1986 tours when my friend Henry Rollins was singing. I missed them the last time they came through here, but that 40 year anniversary of "My War" should be REALLY good!
Hello hello! NO, you are not wearing out your welcome by any means! I always enjoy discovering new (to me) artists, AND helping out fellow setlisters any way I can! Believe me, I have done my fair share of asking for help and tips on this site. Maggie Antone should be ready to go as we speak! Hopefully some of the people you have turned me on to will be touring down this way soon!!
Added the McCharmlys to Musicbrainz this morning. Just got your message. Should be ready to add to setlist.fm by tomorrow...usually if you give it 24 hours, its best. If you try to add right after you put them on Musicbrainz, sometimes it takes a week or two to show up then. Another band that sounds interesting. i need to check them out too!
Got the Tailspins added...but I see you beat me to putting some shows on by them. I did add one you missed, and there's a Facebook link to them doing "The Havana Creep" at Long Beach a few weeks ago. Enjoy, and never hesitate to ask me for anything. Always happy to help out.
I will put in a word for you.
Holy crap!
You have been to more shows than me.
Very impressed.
Adding The Tailspins for you now. They should be in the setlist.fm site in the next 24-48 hours from now. It takes Musicbarinz that long to process things. If you ever want to add someone, go to Musicbrainz.org, create an account (it's free like setlist.fm). Then go to the "Editing" tab and you can add an artist. You just need to try and provide as much information on them as you can, where they are from, external links like Bandcamp, Facebook, or their official website, etc. It's not too bad a process. Always glad to help! I didn't know about The Tailspins, but am checking them out on Bandcamp now, and I like what I hear! Thanks for introducing me to their music!!
I will have to ask one of the Mods about how to get someone Roadie status. I got surprised with that honor about a year after I came on board (which they told me was a fairly short time to become one!). You definitely have the show experience, and knowledge, and patience in dealing with problems on the site. If my vote counts for anything, I think you would be a really good Roadie on here!
AND...by the way...you have seen some INCREDIBLE shows over the years...so many of the bands I LOVE but never got to see!! If I can ever help with anything, never hesitate to ask!!
I also forgot...for segues...I use the "old tapers" symbol...an arrow (->) between the songs...or in the format here, I have been using @Info[-->] . I have seen other people using this as well, and I have never had a problem with it or been corrected so far....
If a band plays the song twice (maybe as an encore, or they ran out of songs....) it's ok to list it twice in the same show...otherwise to do a reprise, I always put the song title, then add the @Info[Reprise] tag after the title. If you still keep having trouble with this person, we can look into it in the forum section to see if they are reverting setlists for no reason.
In regards to reprises vs medleys, let me know which setlist you are referring to.

Hello @mlgunderson! I just saw your forum post and put some hints to help you during the "Bug problems" on the website for the last few days. A lot of us have had the same problem, and the admins and mods are working on it. Check my reply in the forum, and there are a few hints to help make sure your edits are really there. Fingers crossed they'll have this take care of soon!!
Matt, I was sure glad to see the Purdue Exponent source you shared for the Blue Oyster Cult show at Purdue. For years, I have been searching for details of the Harvey Mandel concert in September 1978 that my roommate and I went to at (I thought it was Nick's, but now I've discovered it was Madman's Mustache at the time of the show). My roommate, Bob Knotek was on the staff at the Exponent at the time and wrote a concert review. I shot photographs and took the unprocessed film to the Exponent office so that they could include some pictures with the story. I think this is actually the 1st time I have seen the photos I took that night. I'm glad at least 2 were worthy of inclusion.
You can see that newspaper story here

No, I will not.
Gonna start on Abe Patridge tomorrow. That is so weird, that it got a period added after his name. I never even noticed that. THAT was a very good catch on your part!
