@crunch how would you like the map to be visualized on the personal stats page?
I assume you’ve visited the same venue multiple times, so I’m thinking of showing a single map marker with the number of visits.
The tricky part is what happens when you click the marker. For example, if you’ve been to the same venue 10 times, I’d need to display all 10 dates within that one marker. Or do you have any other idea?
Thanks!
Hi everyone,
You asked for it before, and we’ve been working hard on it. The “gig attendance” feature is back on the website. I’ll continue expanding it over time, but first I want to see how everything evolves once it’s in use.
To use this feature, you need to create an account on the site. You can do this by clicking on “my stats” in the top navigation. This will take you to the login screen, where you can click on “register.” There, you enter your email address and username. You’ll then receive an email and can follow the steps. You can create a new password by clicking on “Lost password.” Sorry, it’s a bit of a workaround, but this was necessary for security reasons. I’ll look into whether we can simplify this.
Once you have an account, I need to approve it. I receive an email each time, so I can usually do that quickly ;-) And then you’re all set!
When you go to a “gig” page, you can click on “attend.” The data from that gig will be stored on your Stats page. And that’s where the magic happens…
Over time, more features will be added, but I first want to see how everything works in practice.
On the previous version of the database website, there was a similar feature, and quite a few people had already created an account. Unfortunately, we couldn’t reuse that data. This means those users will need to create a new account. Sorry about that, but there was no other option.
If you have any feedback about the feature or ideas of your own, feel free to share them here.
Here’s what I’m currently still working on:
• Completing the tour names. I don’t know all of them, so for now I’ve used the year. If anyone can help with this, that would be greatly appreciated.
• Expanding the song page
• Developing the album page
• Exploring possibilities to display forum posts of the setlist on the gig page of the databaseThanks and have fun!

Alright, I’ll look into the best way to implement this.
I’ll flag these gigs as “The International Tussler Society.”
The gigs will appear just like any other gig, except there will be a small label indicating that they’re not from “Motorpsycho,” but from The International Tussler Society.
Thanks!
I’m looking into it to get that “gig attending” feature back.
The Tussler gigs aren’t on the website.
It’s been a long time since we decided what should or shouldn’t be on the site. If I’m not mistaken, we chose not to include them, but I don’t remember the reason anymore.Should we add them to the database? Tussler isn’t Motorpsycho, right? So maybe add them and “flag” them as “The Tussler”.
Can anyone help me to list all the tour names from now until 1990 ?
I working on creating separate pages per tour (per year). I guess that in most cases it is just the name of the album that came out that year.
I already have all the data except the tour names.
Update:
This is how a tour detail page could possibly look like:Jupiter and Beyond the Infinite Tour 2026: Initial Operational Sequence
Any requests what you want to see more on a tour “report” page?
That’s great feedback, Crunch. Thanks!
I fully agree with the header section and have already made some changes there.I’ve also improved the search results. For example, if you type “A Pacific Sonata”, you’ll see that the results are now split. This makes it clearer what type of content you’re clicking on: Gig vs. Clip.
I’m not sure if it’s really that relevant to know how many songs they’ve played, but it was something I wanted to know when I started this project. Now, it’s just a fun little statistic.
The idea behind “On This Day In History” was to use textual blocks as a “tease,” encouraging users to click to see all the information. The faded year in the background is just a small design touch. I’ve also removed some redundant text.
Thanks Crunch for your feedback — I totally agree. I’ll look into how we can achieve this.
For now, I’ve made some small/quick changes to the homepage to show more modules without requiring a lot of scrolling.
I’ve also noticed the issues with the sidebar filters. I was using a very large screen, so the problem went unnoticed on my end. Now, navigating through the filters should be much easier.
New functionalities:
– Songs played for the first time now receive a “debug” label.– Songs returning after several years get a label “Back after X years”. This label appears only if the song has been absent for at least 5 years.
The band completely approves recordings.
