I love this sort of research and nerdom. The world needs more #biscology. 👏🏼

1 0 1 0

Unless my math isn't mathing, getting Mag and HDPF in the same show is rare (~28 instances incl last night).

Getting them in the same set is a much rarer treat: 12 instances (with only 4 post 1.0).

(2) Play count of songs with Marlon (Helix at 5x)
(3) 25 lifetime most played songs not yet played with Marlon

We like to stats; #SIYD.

Thanks, mate. I've been doing data cuts of setlist databases for a few years now across a few bands.

I finally got the Bisco data ingested into my tool and have been digging into #Biscology.

Some humpday #Biscology. A friend hypothesized that we’ll see more “commas” once Marlon hits the tDB traps. Suspect he's right.

Baseline: Commas have nearly vanished, down from 80% of transitions in '96 to 2% in 24 / 4% in 25. Basically seamless sets in 24-25, with only 40 commas across ~290 sets.
