About
Live Music Planner is a private, invitation-only portal for a small group of people who go to a lot of concerts. There is no sign-up: an administrator sends an invitation link, you choose a password, and you are in.
It is a hobby project, made and run by one private person for family and friends — not a company, not a service with a business model. There are no ads and nothing is sold. The only analytics is anonymous usage statistics (Microsoft Clarity), and only if you accept the cookie banner. It is free to use, and if you find it useful a coffee is appreciated. Nobody outside the group can see what you add.
What it looks like

The dashboard: the next concert with a countdown and quick links, upcoming concerts, open to-dos and queued reminders All concerts, with prices and ratings for past shows Editing a concert, with quick links to the venue on the map, the artist on Spotify and set lists on Setlist.fm Account: the calendar subscription that keeps the calendar on your phone in sync Stats: concerts and spend per year, the most seen artists and venues, ratings and milestones A shared concert as friends see it: artist, venue with address, date and time, price and a ticket link — never notes or ratings
How it works
You write down the concerts you are going to — who, where, when, what the ticket cost, who is coming along — and rate them afterwards. The dashboard opens with what is next, a statistics page adds it all up, and the evening before each concert an e-mail arrives so the day does not sneak up on you. The calendar on your phone can subscribe to your concerts, a concert can be shared with friends through a link, and there is room for the notes, links and to-dos around a night out. Everything is personal — your list is yours alone.
The guide explains every part, from the first login to the calendar subscription.
A few fun facts
- The portal grew out of an older planner that had been in use for years; every concert from it came along.
- Reminder times follow your own time zone, so a show in another country still gets its mail the evening before, local time.
- The whole thing runs on a shoestring — about the price of a cup of coffee a month — because a hobby should not cost more than the concerts do.
- Nobody reads your data. Backups exist so nothing is lost, not so anyone can look.
Privacy
What the portal stores, which cookies it sets and what leaves the group is on the Privacy page — including what the anonymous usage statistics record and how to change your answer to the cookie banner.
