Concert Reviews

Starting in late 2023 I began a brief log of shows I was going to, just a simple 1-10 rating. Ones before that are backdated. Each set gets a gut-feel rating out of 10, plus an Elo-based power ranking from comparing shows head-to-head, similarly to how apps like Beli work. I built a simple system that presents me with pairs of shows and asks which i preferred. Older shows get a slight boost in their power ranking to counteract any recency bias.
