How much time do you spend listening to shows/bootlegs?
Seeing as I'm working from home at the moment, and have been for the last 3+ months, I try to listen to at least one The Cure show per day, Monday to Friday. I have other shows from about ten other "main" bands that I try to listen to at the same rate, so I'm not only focused on The Cure. This is good and bad. There are also "others" which I put into my Tier 3 of bands.
My tiers are:
Tier 1: The Cure
Tier 2: TOOL, Jane's Addiction, Porno For Pyros, Nirvana, Faith No More, Courtney Barnett, The Eels, A Perfect Circle, Radiohead, Regurgitator (These are not in any order, they're all the same level of devotion from me)
Tier 3: Just too many bands to list really.
For The Cure I have 1,176 unique dates listed, but as we're all aware, some dates have multiple sources, so a quick tally shows I have 2638 shows.
As at today, I've listened to 483 (~41%) of the 1,176 unique shows which means that if I manage to listen to one show a day, I'll have listened to each show (date, not multiple sources) in just over 2.5 years.
If I was to skip the "other bands" shows I could listen to a lot more The Cure but the aim is to get a list of all best shows from all of my favorite bands so I have a "Best of the Best" list for my retirement days.
Here's a little pic showing the bands I listen to and the numbers. There's a lot of music there. I genuinely fear I won't get through it all.
How do you listen to your shows? Do you have a plan? Do you make a note of them for any reason? What's the reason? Do you just listen to the same shows over and over?
Tell me, tell me, tell me how you do that thing....
