mabewa's setlist.fm

Regarding the Peace comment you left on my profile, I actually did make such a request, but it was declined with the only comment being that same Musicbrainz link (despite the fact that that page's header uses the dash and not the colon. Does this person not know how to read the full context before making a decision?).

The dash is used consistently by the band on most other releases, such as live albums and all digital uploads. I actually personally use the colon when talking about the songs on other sites (the same with Prelude - Song of the Gulls), but I figured a more formal database should stick with the official formatting for consistency.

Also, I couldn't figure out how to reply to your comment on my own profile. Is that just a weird bug, or are we seriously not allowed to comment on our own profiles? Seems like a massive oversight in my opinion.

Hi, you asked on my profile about some details at the Oct 1988 YFF show at UW's HUB. I remember a few things from live Fellows shows there that _could've_ been more than one show. How do these sound? 1) Midway through the show, Scott showed slides of their latest US tour on the HUB's slide projector. 2) Tad wore a helmet at the drum kit, as he'd hit one cymbal on a flexible arm sometimes and it would rebound near his head. 3) Chuck started the show wearing a wig over his normal hair and tossed his wig into the crowd at some point. Can't recall a guitar smash, sorry to say!

Thank you for your thoughtful reply. It's a nice change from the usual bullying dealt out by some here. Appreciate your insights.

Yes, I had my editing privileges restored the day I completed three months without being able to edit. I'm glad to be able to contribute here again :D

Hello! I just wanted to stop by and thank you for listening to me and helping me with my case. It was three long months without being able to edit and I couldn't wait for it all to end. Sorry for bothering you with messages a few times, I just know that I'm not someone with bad intentions here. I will just focus on my edits. Now I need to make a lot of edits that haven't been done yet. Thanks again! :)

Hey, I'm sorry for bothering you that weekend and I hate to bother you again, but today it's been exactly a month since I was able to edit and I still have no answers. Some mods don't get involved because they don't know the case.

Please, maybe you could speak to the mod who blocked me so they can weigh in on giving me a chance to edit again? Or at least he could analyze my case? I talk, but no one cares. During this month I saw two people trying to talk to mods through new accounts so they could unblock the old accounts and then the comments disappeared because they probably deleted the accounts but I'm still here waiting without new accounts.

Look, even if I can't make edits, my biggest concern at the moment is keeping setlist.fm updated. For some reason, there are some specific "slightly less famous" artists that only I was creating the setlists and updating them with valid sources, and since I was blocked from editing, no other users created any setlists. I'm talking about 20 to 25 setlists from various artists that still need to be created. As they are bands that play shows for few people, it is difficult to find valid sources to edit the setlists after a long time. All I need is another chance. Any mod can see my edit history and will not see a single malicious edit. I understand if you don't want to get involved in this and I don't want you to jeopardize your position as a roadie because of me, it's just that this is just an annoying situation that I don't know what else to say or do about and you're still the only one who has given me some hope.

thanks for the heads up! I thought about doing that earlier today but got distracted by other troll issues ;) If the ghosting troll keeps making fake edits we'll eventually end up with more locked setlists.

Thanks for your help with that Nicki Minaj setlist. It looks pretty correct at this point.

hi. that setlist I marked up was just working from YT video. If you have a better source, feel free to edit anything I may post up. I appreciate the heads up.

Hey, I'm trying to get in contact with kfinch but he keeps ignoring me, do you have any ideas why? I don't want to sound rude and I am absolutely not trying to make out kfinch as a bad person, but none of my requests for some answers at my questions (mostly VNV Nation related) went unanswered.

I just want answers and I don't know why I'm not getting any (I'm realising that sounds a little selfish, but it has been a day or two, maybe there's too much? If so, please let me know! I don't want to be another thorn in someone's back).

Please respond!

Brilliant work, thanks!

I updated the demo on discogs a long while back. The name is 'Anata No Ai De Manshitsu-chū', (possibly mis-romanised but is a close aproximation).
It's an official release before joining a label (has its own album art).

Also on the band's official Japanese page in discography if you scroll to the very bottom:

RE: Chu Chu Song
I get the thinking, even though I do not like it..!

What about the official demo release that came before the live album? I would assume demos are not considered at all?

My rule of thumb here is that whatever English is written on the back of the box of the album is the title that should be used on here. In theory it should lead to the least confusion.

Other anomalies- someone changed ‘Bakuro Book’ to ‘Ai no bakuro book ~bakuro book~’ because of the EP, despite Itekoma Hits just listing as Bakuro Book on musicbrainz. I think this should be changed back as no one refers to it with such a long winded title.

‘Chu Chu Song’ falls under a live album currently, despite the song having a studio version, but does not appear on any other album (digital studio single) My view is that it should be album-less and fall under ‘other’. Or have its own single as category but don’t know if that’s possible.

Hi mabewa,

Regarding your recent Otoboke Beaver updates, specifically about the song Ikezu having its album grouping changed to Itekoma Hits. I put forward this request many times in the past and each was rejected.

If you are changing Ikezu, you also must change Love is short, Bakuro book, S’il Vous plait, …late date’ and Introduct me to your family - as these are all currently listed under EPs rather than an album.

Hi, earivas is again reverting a setlist despite being given proof that the songs were played in the form of photos, this time on Kraftwerk's 1981 performance in Kassel.

Here's explanations of how each photo proves the song was played:
Nummern: On the screens we can see the same visuals as shown in their TV appearance from the same year (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5sfOU0L1wI)

Computerwelt: On the screens we can see the same visuals as shown in their TV appearance from the same year. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5sfOU0L1wI)

Heimcomputer: On the screens we can see the same visuals as shown in their TV appearance from the same year. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3AmMnFk3imI)

Autobahn: On the screens we can see the same art on the cover of Autobahn. (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/1/1c/Autobahn-kraftwerk-cover.jpg)

Taschenrechner: On the screens we can see the same visuals as shown in their TV appearance from the same year. Additionally this was the only time in their 1981 performances where they stepped away from their podiums and played these instruments. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mopXKac2R3E)

Die Roboter: On the screens we can see the same visuals as shown in their TV appearance from the same year. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NOXnuVG9vEU)

Thanks for responding! I had made an edit to the text of the report after sending it and out of nowhere it disappeared, so I sent it again. But after a while the report reappeared there, so I asked a moderator to delete the duplicate. I was afraid they would think I was flooding the forum because of the size of the text and the times I sent it, but everything was resolved. Thanks again :)

Hello! I'm sending a report to the spam/troll forum, but the message is disappearing when I edit. Can you tell if it's showing up to the moderators / roadies or if it's a bug?

Hi there, feel free to delete after reading. The mod didn't revert the song names as you can see in the setlist history, luke is misinformed. https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/guns-n-roses/2009/taipei-county-stadium-taipei-taiwan-43d717d3.html

the mod reverted Axl's comment about Sorry in a different setlist, first claiming there was no evidence, and upon being presented evidence, moving the goalpost to it being "irrelevant". whatever, the big thing is having the proper song names on the setlist.

your comment on the forum tracks with SetlistFM history. i'm aware that nobody tracks the chinese democracy tours like i do, but i'm going through my personal archive of every show from that tour.

Yes, I hope so. I told kfinch. Sorry for bothering you and thanks for responding :)
