| From the Where2sing.com forum: B2S: Oh, I have no doubt that there is a lot of drivel in the gig comments, comprising of people with vendettas and people who just want to get access to the gig guide. It's not a perfect system, but it's the system David has implemented and I'm okay with that. It would be a shame that you only read the comments of gigs you have visited because not only are the gig comments meant to help you get out to new venue, but some of them are a crack-up! Especially China's (VIC Host) reviews and running commentary and the controversy it has caused.
Having said that, yes, just popping them in here is the easiest thing to do but think about this... Let's say a venue has a habit of always cancelling karaoke for big events (football grand final, Mundine fight, Olympics et al), you're going to see a history if they're put in the gig comments. I probably would choose not to support a venue that dicks around it's karaoke crowd like that at the drop of the hat, something you just wouldn't see if that information was only put in the chat forum... I don't see gig comments as only being useful for whether or not you get 3 songs in the night...
