We surpassed 2,000 setlists today. All the posts were created in the 2 months since the site launched in late January and many entries have images and video to complement the setlists. So, basically what I’m trying to say is, if you helped add content to the site, you’re awesome.
ShowMeTheSetlist.com is dedicated to not only being a great destination web site, but also a great content provider. We want to be as open as possible with our data which includes our setlists, photos, and videos. People all across the internet help make our web site great by creating entries, so why not share it?
Therefore I’m very pleased to announce our first content feed. We partnered with SMNnews.com to share our metal/rock setlists. We’re on the left-side as you scroll down. SMN News is an excellent music news site. The site has very active forums and even hosts the official forums for many bands including Between the Buried and Me, The Dillinger Escape Plan, The Red Chord, HORSE the Band, and Job For A Cowboy.

Check it out, play around with it and give me feedback! We created this feed to fit seamlessly in with SMN News, but we’re also creating a customizable one that will be able to contain any and all artists you want as well as have a changeable design. If you’re interested in putting a feed up on your site, your blog, or wherever, let me know! We should have something in the coming weeks!
Thank you to everyone who has visited the site, added content or helped spread the word. We breezed past 1,000 setlists quite easily and are about to hit our next milestone of 2,000 setlists.
Let me first mention by name those sites who have either written blurbs about us or linked to us. This help has been critical to our early success, so please check out these sites:

Other Sites
If you linked to me and I forgot to mention your site, let me know!
With well over 600 artists currently on our site, we have quite the variety of genres of represented. Some of the bands with the most entries include Exodus, Van Halen, Goo Goo Dolls, Duran Duran, & Hot Hot Heat. We’ve had some interest in people seeing a “leader board” where the artists with the most setlists posted are featured, so if that appears one day you’ll know why.
Remember the site is a wiki, so anyone can add any artist or setlist they want. It’s not meant to be a site for just one genre or another. It’s a platform to organize setlists and create a concert history for any and every musician. You might be a metalhead, an indie rocker or just a music snob, but you never know when you want to see that Justin Timberlake setlist.
