I wouldn't say there was a LOT more (I've just had a look and there's nothing for the next two months in the calendar that wasn't already in the GCG), but there are certainly some, prof lofi's sound installation at the railway station for instance or gigs outwith Aberdeen City, which the site can't/won't handle at the moment.

Change the thousands to hundreds and I'm just as confused as to why promoters, venues and even bands themselves don't make more use of the GCG site. Even when I chase up the promoters/venues for info it's like getting blood out of a stone sometimes, which seems an odd way to promote gigs.
Deadline for the Feb issue is this Friday, 13th Jan so get those listings in folks, if I don't have them on the datatbase by then, it won't be in the paper version.
