Thanks for the hunt @_jacksmith, wasn't expecting to see this here this morning.
We're still in very much MVP mode, which we finished just yesterday.
We're using several API behind the scenes to make it easier for the people to build their show list.
We'd love any feedback you have using the site, and suggestions for future features!
Always love exploring @mubashariqbal's new projects. The artist suggestions in the onboarding flow are nice, making it easier to add more to my profile with a hint of delightful nostalgia.
That said, I've seen similar sites/apps to this and I don't quite see the utility. Why would people want to browser artists I've seen? Are there enough people that want to "scrapbook" their concert going history? I could be completely missing the use case or I'm just not the right audience (although I love music and go to a fair amount of concerts/shows).
@rrhoover Thanks, Ryan. I'm glad you enjoyed the onboarding flow.
The 'scrapbooking' of your shows is the one feature we used to build the MVP on. It had to start here as this is the foundation, but not the end goal.
The (near) end goal is discovering new artists and being able to look back to previous concerts and see everyone who attended -- plus explore all their photos, videos, and comments from that same concert. Plus, adding a 'wishlist' for artists you want to see.
I believe you are the right audience, we just need to stick to our roadmap and keep pushing out more reasons to keep you coming back.
@rrhoover I was similarly intrigued when @mubashariqbal sent me a link to the MVP to try out. As a major music freak, I was cataloging my concerts on FB way before it was cool or there was any way to do it easily. I also found the onboarding process to be fairly simple, so that's a plus.
I've played around with it for a couple of days, though, and did find myself questioning the utility. There may well be something that others enjoy in the "scrapbooking" function, but I think that is a whole different focus than discovery. Certainly the two can coexist, but as a major music consumer, I think I would need to see something more in order to feel I'd use this daily.
I suppose one question I would ask is what the strategy here would be in terms of interaction with media (music especially). Because so much of discovery takes place outside the walled-gardens of the major mainstream services, relying solely on them for music acquisition and interaction I think might prove challenging for growth in the long term.
That said, cool build, interested to see the next evolution!
@mubashariqbal messaged me yesterday saying that he was working on (yet another) side project... it was trying to stay under the radar initially but as it goes in tech, people get a hold of things (cool things especially) and they just get released into the wild.
I'll let him and Jonny take it from here :)
