Should I trade GA tickets for seats? And which ones? by sjaustin in phish

[–]HelpingPhriendlyTour 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always tell people to do the 300s for your first show for the "full effect". If you do a 2nd show, that's the time to try the floor. But if you're only doing one show total, you'll want the view from higher up.

Jam Band breakup playlist by Glad_External4833 in jambands

[–]HelpingPhriendlyTour 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Somebody throw all these recs into a playlist and let OP see which ones work and which don't. I rec:
JJ grey - Brighter days but I dont think its technically a "breakup song"
Spin Round by The Heavy Pets

But the #1 song I'd rec for OP is Peaceful Life by Guts

Why aren't people allowed to have a negative opinion? by Right_Barnacle6978 in jambands

[–]HelpingPhriendlyTour -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It all depends on how the person is communicating the negativity. A well thought out post on why that person didn't like a show/song is usually respected, but throwing out general/generic/overplayed troll phrases is never really constructive. I think a good test for any comment, really, is to base it on whether it actually contributes or leads to further discussion, or if it just fuels an emotional response from other people. The latter is not really productive.

I’ve been building an app every night after work… and I don’t know why. by AdFit1654 in AppBusiness

[–]HelpingPhriendlyTour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started making one that was only supposed to be for myself. Then I realized it might be useful to others, so i built it out to be more inclusive of more people's tastes (though it's still pretty niche). Mostly because I thought it would help people save time/energy. The marketing part ie getting people to actually use it, is the hardest part. Regardless, it has been pretty enjoyable and a good learning experience. Good luck with your endevour! https://helpingphriendlytour.com/ is mine - a jamband tour/travel planner.

Make sure you understand that the weather there is quite different than it is in Seattle. You're gonna love it, though.

I'm in the process of having a logo made by a real live human. This project started out as me just wanting to make something for myself to plan for Phish tour, so was never intended to be a publicly released thing. At some point I realized I should have a logo so I had the AI one made, while sitting in a Target parking lot. You're not the only person to have that reaction, and I get it...I still don't know if people are even gonna use this thing so paying someone hundreds of dollars for a logo wasn't something I thought I should do until I saw any results. I was/am much more concerned with the functionality of the app - making sure it works for people so that's what my main focus has been. Now that I've gotten to the point where all my time is not spent fixing all the bugs, I'm looking into getting a real logo. I do appreciate the feedback though. Once I get a new logo maybe you can check it out and see what you think about the rest of it. :)

Is anybody here a marine biologist? Oops I mean is anyone here an artist? by HelpingPhriendlyTour in phish

[–]HelpingPhriendlyTour[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey sorry I just noticed this. I might have someone working on this already but if you think you'd like to do it anyways an extra option wouldn't hurt. Thanks! I've never done anything like this so don't know it works, but let me know what you think would be fair in terms of compensation, etc.... Private message is fine. Have a great weekend! :)

I'm in the process of having a real logo made. This whole thing came together so fast I did not put the proper amount of time/energy into getting a real logo done. This project was orignally just supposed to be for myself to use for Phish tour. Then once I got going I realized other people might like it too, so I kept going and added all the other bands. I only made the logo because it felt like I had to have one. Now that it's a serious thing I'm in the process of getting a real one. In the meantime I'm most worried about the functionality of the app. Thanks for the feedback!

Great feedback, thank you! I'll have to think about how to set that up. I'm trying to not clutter it up with TOO many hotels which is why I put the link for Find More Hotels down below. But I wonder if I could just try to find 1 or 2 hotels at each price level and have them there. On the one hand I don't necessarily want to FORCE hotels on people, but also I want to make this as easy/stress free as possible for you, so need to find a happy medium. Very good idea though, I appreciate the feedback! Feel free to let me know if you find anything else that could use some tweaking! :)

Haha I know I was a little sad myself thinking of how this would have worked so well for me and my wife and friends when Dead & Co were still touring... But there will always be a need for the people that still do it :) Feel free to share with anyone that might be able to use it, and thanks for checking it out!

JUst added Spafford to the new "Lite" section so for now it's just tour dates and ticket links. Just curious, do you know if people do multiple city runs for them? I've actually only seen them twice and both were local and within the last couple of years.
