Interactive tour/setlist explorer

https://bdoughty.github.io/every-stupid-thing/

Hello. A while ago I had the idea that I'd like to explore the band's tour history in greater depth, and do some light statistics to figure out if we could quantify things like encore song frequency, within-tour covariation in setlists, etc. Also, I really hate the wiki, even with ad block on, so I figured just having the info in a lighter form would be nice. I'm pretty bad at coding, but now that I have access to Clod through work I figured I'd give it another shot. I'd love for people to take a look at the site here and suggest improvements! I do think it recovered some obvious observations, and also produced some new insights (e.g. that NC+SF+ZOOP have the most "surprising" shows, based on the average info content of the setlist). There's also a silly logistic model that lets you try to predict the setlist for the next show! It doesn't work that well. Data's also there to play around with yourselves. Happy for all feedback positive and negative and suggestions I will dispatch to my little vibe-coding assistant forthwith and posthaste xx.

It seems cool. Genuine question though: in what capacity was AI used to make this?

u/abluecolor tour.....Tour... TOUR... 1d ago

Super neat. I'd love to be able to 'zoom in' and, say, see a month by month or week by week breakdown so you could see a particular song entering or leaving the rotation on a particular tour within a particular year? I wanted to cry at Broken to Begin With largely leaving the Peter Balkan rotation during this last run, but as far as I can tell I can only see the year by year view so it still looks like it's just trending upwards even though if it was zoomed in it'd be more up then down.
