I’ve attached a poll with the discussed options to the first post. Please do give your opinions!
I’m missing the option “rename concert to live performance” (aka “one type is enough, but the term ‘concert’ may be too narrow”).
Gah. That’s a good point, but it won’t let me edit the poll.
I don’t like “live performance”. A festival might not be a single performance, but is it not live? A launch event is usually done live, I believe. I would hope that a masterclass would be performed live at least.
Maybe two distinct polls (wording & hierarchy) were needed?
It is live, but not a single performance
Most of the time it is on a stage as well.
Teaching can be challenging, but it doesn’t qualify as a live performance/show, most of the time.
Bringing back an old thread here as it appears no changes have been made to the Events category in a few years. What about Radio events? Strictly musically speaking, you may be thinking “Well if they played a show on radio then it can be categorized as a concert”, but what about when a band just does an interview, I think that could be well documented on here. In addition to that, some of the older artists on here have done other non-musical appearances on the radio, either for drama plays comedy.
I think this might need to be spun off into a separate thread. It’s common for artists to do appearances on radio and TV for promotional purposes.
There have been a few tickets proposed for such events, e.g. https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/STYLE-550
