I've just been tracking everything in a new Word doc each year. Mostly because I hate excel more than anything.

I've used Excel for several years. I don't really track albums well - there's just too much going on throughout my work day for me to enter those in as I'm listening to music, and that's generally when I'm listening.

I use photo albums for the tickets. But I also use Excel for artist and date of show.

I have a big ole google doc where I track every show I've ever been to. I reset it for each year for albums. There is probably a more efficent way to do all of that but it works for me so who cares

Google Sheet for me. I think I may have set or come close to setting my PR in 2023 for most shows attended in a calendar year.

The past year I’ve transferred from Sheets to Trello. I like making columns and moving artist tiles to form my own superlatives.

i started logging shows and CDs/records in excel when i was in high school. that two-tab file eventually grew to include baseball games, radio playlists, and flights.
i moved everything over to google sheets several years ago. during the pandemic when i wasn't going to shows or buying new music, i dropped all of that into tableau to play around with.

1980 - 2017 The trapper keeper was handwritten single spaced sheets of paper with bands listed on both sides of each sheet of paper, chronologically by year, but not by day or month. The original is in a file cabinet at home, a copy is at work, and the last copy, dating only to 2009, was given to hansford back in the day. Shows before 1980 were added to the trapper keeper from memory sometime around 1982, so those entries may not include everything from then.
2018 and 2019 The trapper keeper was two separate Facebook notes, now not accessible to anyone but me, because Facebook axed notes. I did print this up though, before they did.
2020 - present The trapper keeper is a google document in either of my computers.

I love keeping it in excel because it does all the math for me and pivot tables allow me to figure out all sorts of useless but fun bits of info. My current document has some gremlin where the tables won't update properly and I've been putting off rebuilding it but maybe this is the year.

I used excel for years then switched to Bear. Now I use both Bear and Concert Archives app but only the latter has my entire history.

It’s free to use (both web + iOS/Android app) and allows you to create Kanban boards. In the case of TKs, I have a board which serves as a visual way of organizing the acts I’ve seen. The superlative columns are mainly just a tier list and I can move all the artist tiles in a column up or down as a ranking. Within each artist tile, I can add notes, photos, etc. The acts I still need to see are part of the New/To-Do column. I also use Trello to manage my film and game backlog.

i made a list on Rate Your Music and keep updating that (possibly stole that idea from someones signature on the board way back when)
i also use SetList.FM to some extent if/when the shows are up there. I don't go add things that aren't there though
