As Mark Zuckerberg would say, your startup is "too useful". I'm surprised that everyone here seems so focussed on your landing page. It may be a thousand times better than the first, and it may still need improvement, but what is more important is the actual product. And right now from what I've seen that needs work. I think the main concern I have comes from the fact that you spent "7 months by myself glued to a computer". How much have you talked to users in this time? Have you had any bands use some of the functionality while you were working on it to get an idea of what they really wanted? The home video looks like you have an incredible amount of features, but with little emphasis on usability or design. I'm intimidated by your website. It may be able to produce 30 kinds of graphs, but if I don't like using it or won't take the time to learn most of them, it doesn't matter. There is some stuff there that sounds really cool; like the idea of Myspace integration. But the cool stuff gets lost with all of the features that band members may not really care for (the merch section with pictures seems quite separate from event planning). I think it's a cool idea with potential. I'm not sure what the technical expertise and design expectations of band managers is, and perhaps they only have really poor software to do similar things. But if I were a potential user, I'd like you to select one or two really cool features, make those well designed, and take the rest away until I ask for them or put them in the back menus for the hardcore users. That would give your site a really simplistic message and could leave me demanding more; maybe in the form of an additional pay-for content. Which features should these be? I don't know, talk to band managers. If you can find one, it would be really useful if you could get a designer to help you with this. If not, just bring it to bands that you know, get them to use it (for free), and talk to them regularly. I really don't mean to sound critical. I'm a 20, and I've been working on a website for 4 months now, though probably not as hard as you have (because of school). It's still been pretty tough for me, and I give you a ton of credit for lasting so long while working on something you care about. This is an incredibly comprehensive website. If you did cut it down a bit, the nice part is that it seems like all the backend is already done, so most of the work is complete. I just don't know how much longer you are willing to endure on this. Websites can be quite depressing when you have few users. Having gone seven months working on this alone, based on your own idea, is something few of my friends are capable of. In the case that it doesn't work out you have still done something very impressive and can live knowing that you've finished something original. Best of luck to you, and if you ever want more advice let me know.
