Longest Streaks Have Arrived
A new statistic has landed on Concert Archives:
Longest Streaks shows your top 5 longest streaks of going to concerts on consecutive days.
You can tap into any of your streaks to see exactly which concerts made it up, so it’s easy to revisit those busy, music-filled times.
More Concert Anniversaries
If you’ve been a Concert Archivist for a while, you’ve probably received a concert anniversary notification before.
In the past, we only showed one anniversary, but now you can see every anniversary you ever went to on any given date.

Media Requests Are Now Easier Than Ever
People have reached out to us in the past requesting to use photos and videos uploaded onto Concert Archives for TV news segments, documentaries, news articles, social media content, and much more.
To ensure that the uploader approved of this use, we’d have to communicate between them and the requester.
This back-and-forth could often delay timely projects, so we built a feature to allow people to directly request to use a photo or video from the uploader.
Just click the “Request to Use” button on any photo or video:
Once clicked, a pop-up will appear with a form to add further details about your request and how you plan to use the photo/video:
Once the request is submitted, the uploader receives an email with all the information and can follow up with the requester directly.
