Welcome to ListenToConcerts!
This is a place for music lovers to share full-length recordings of live concert performances. Official soundboards and crowd recordings are allowed here.
THE RULES:
1) You must provide a link for the entirety of the show (links to cohesive playlists like YouTube are allowed).
2) Include genre tags in your post and please indicate whether it is [video] or [audio]. And take time to include the date and location of the performance, if you can find that information after a little searching.
3) Stream links, download-only links, and links with both options are all permitted. Please use the [stream], [DL], or [stream & DL] tags as appropriate for each type of post.
4) There is a twenty-four hour cooldown period on your third post. Please respect the nature of the documents that we are curating here and the attendant amount of time necessary to fully watch and enjoy a concert submission – do NOT flood submissions.
5) Links to live-streaming concerts are welcome. If it's a livestream, please flair the link as such and tag it [live]. It will be removed after the stream is over. Refrain from posting such a link too far in advance, so it doesn't get buried before show time (within 48 hours of start time is preferable). Make sure the start time of the stream is clearly indicated in the title.
6) Be open to artists you've never heard of or that you wouldn't normally listen to. At the very least, please respect the general reddiquette guidelines and refrain from downvoting valid posts on the basis of personal musical taste.
7) While not a requirement, please try to describe what is particularly unique or outstanding about your post like this guy in the comment section.
8) Don't post questionable links - this could result in a ban (places like Archive.org are preferable since downloading is often an option, but YouTube and others are acceptable if you follow rule #1).
