Nice work. I've registered, though unfortunately I don't attend many concerts. Just a couple of suggestions:

- Your dataset seems fairly good (it found a bunch of concerts of a band only known in my country), but inevitably it'll miss a bunch of amateur and/or obscure bands. I know this has the danger of muddying your data and ending up with fifty versions of AC/DC, but if I need to keep track of certain concerts off-site, it loses much of its appeal.

- Please, please implement an export feature. Regardless of your intentions your site will eventually close, and it's not fair to your users if they lose all their data. A simple CSV with the band/venue/date would suffice.

Good luck!

Thanks for the suggestions, the export feature is something that wasn't on our roadmap, but is now.
Yeah, the more obscure bands is a hurdle we are working hard on, and we will solve. I am personally into more obscure bands, as you can tell from the Dead Milkmen on the landing page, so this is a priority for us.

Export feature is now on our roadmap.

Thanks for the awesome feedback.
