The Beta Band gigography / concert database
Here is the current Beta Band concert list from my fansite over at betaband.co.uk.
This is my starting point and was created by me (@hobbsy) over several years running my fansites and the official Beta Band site.
I think around 8 years ago, Songkick based their list on my own data - so unfortunately a lot of my errors and ommissions appear on that site. I will also take a look at what setlist.fm have in their list.
Over the course of the next few weeks and months I will be compiling a more complete and accurate Beta Band concert list. I will be basing this on old saved HTML pages I have from earlier versions of my fansites, plus John Maclean's scrapbooks which have lots of ticket stubs/reviews etc.
If you would like to help me out with this list or can add (or delete) any concert info/ticket stubs/memories, please drop me an email at: betabandfansite [at] gmail [dotcom] (Have I missed off a concert you went to etc.)
Version 1 is below, a cut n paste from my fansite. This will be edited shortly.... Source: http://betaband.co.uk/gigography/
