I just registered as @darkvibration and put in all the concerts I have been to. Is this a purely personal journal kind of thing or have you been thinking of adding some social feature to it as well?

I would love to know your vision/plan with the site.

Thanks for registering and adding your list -- I'm kind of jealous that you've seen David Gilmour!

Since we just launched 24 hours ago, it is currently a personal journal that you can organize and share with friends on Facebook and Twitter.

The vision is social and discoverability. We will enable you to follow other users that like similar bands to you, and see everyone that has been to the same shows as you. This will help you discover new bands and find shows in your geo area.

I am a big fan of Floyd and his solo stuff. He is not very difficult to see these days, he has been touring non stop for an year now. Maybe you can still catch him.

I was wondering if the show discovery space is crowded because of Songkick (which I already use), Bandsintown etc. What is your thought on that? On the other hand, Songkick at least has little to no social aspect, which kinda sucks.
