I am in and also manage 2 bands but your system will only allow an email address to be associated with one band

I think venues should be able to leave a review .. this would increase the chances of getting booked by other venues. Also the artist should be able to do the same.

I was wondering if the platform can be updated in order to accommodate video artists (vj)
thank you!

I wonder if these venues are genuinely looking for live music as an experienced pro musician amazed at being rejected by every single application and I applied for many.

When viewing your sent messages, a either read with date or unread status. I'm sick to death of sending venues messages and receiving no reply. Either the venue are just plain rude or they haven't logged in and saw your message or booking request. When I first found live and loud I thought it was amazing but I'm slowly becoming frustrated by lack of venues.

send reminders to venues that you have requested a gig. I find it really rude when you just get idnored or overlooked. If they decline also the abillity to send feedback as to why they have declined. It's really annoying when you can see a event that you applied for weeks ago gets to the day of the gig and still not filled or booked. Maybe if the venue were sent a reminder this wouldn't happen.

You should include a selection bar that allows you to specify the size of an act, whether it be solo, duo, trio+

If a event is advertised for £200 but say a solo act is willing to play for only £150 you can send the offer to the organiser along with the booking request. Also the ability to add terms to the request would be good.

As soon as you send message you should get feed back to show they have seen it even if they don't reply

You have lots of venues in London but NONE in Bath here we are known for our live music

rock, blues, jazz, classical, guitar and vocals, songwriter.

We mainly look for ska act and only reggae is the nearest but a completely different kind of music, audience and vibe

Would be good if there was a way of filtering events for less than for example £400 ? most events advertised seem to be "no fee" and its a waste of time scrolling through them all

To have more sub-categories of act genre i.e Comedy

It would make the L&L website/service more useful to both artists and venues if you could display the performance opportunities by distance and fee offered. This would mean that the artist could filter out gigs that were either to far away or were too low paid.

This would benefit all parties as the venues would get appropriate applications to suit their location and budget and the artist could filter out any gigs that were either too far away or with too low a fee (or both)

have a link to bands bands website that isn't facebook. Bands have real websites too.

It is currently linking to the Facebook site not the Facebook page that we use as a musician! That is bad, because the is my private site only!
