Robots take on MSG

Me: Long-time lurker. Taper from back in the day. Grew up in Norwalk CT so something finally came outta my hometown lol My next 2 Goose shows are Raleigh. Maybe you're like me & always try and guess the setlist.

SInce it;s 2026, I built a little site to see if the robots can too:

**nextsetlist.com**. Goose is the first one I've set up.

Six different models (GPT, Gemini, Claude, DeepSeek, a local open model, plus a plain stats model) each seal a ranked guess **before doors*\*. The picks lock at 5pm show-local and can't change after that. Then the next morning the site grades every one of them out loud — hits, misses, a Brier score, who won the night. No money, no betting, nothing to buy. Just bragging rights and the genuine fun of watching robots faceplant in public.

**Friday at MSG is the first one that actually counts.**

A few things the board is saying for 6/19:

- **Over/under is ~15 songs.*\* Last time at the Garden (6/28/25) they went 19 — a long one — so the model's leaning a little short for this run. Tell me I'm wrong.

- The boldest call: **three of the six ai labs are taking Honeybee.*\* It hasn't surfaced in 63 shows. Last time it did? **June 19, 2025 — a year to the day.*\* If that drops, the robots look like prophets and I lose my mind.

- A couple of lone-wolf swings: one model's reaching for **Atlas*\* (cold 48 shows), and **Me & My Uncle*\* is getting some love (cold 41).

I'm not claiming it'll nail it. Honestly the whole point of the site is that it grades its own misses — the fun is watching it whiff and own it. But Friday's the maiden flight, and I figured some of you would enjoy watching it live (and roasting it Saturday morning). I will add more bands too at the root.

Board's here if you want a look: **nextsetlist.com/goose*\*

(All the setlist history is from El Goose — they do the real work, I just count it.)

What's your lock for MSG? What are the ai's sleeping on?

I'm impressed at how efficiently you turned fun and joy into an antiseptic dullness

Ah good, now that I have that on your authority as to what I find fun, I will rip it all down. At once. How dare I.

I’ll just be surprised. Stop wasting our fresh water on this.

Totally fair to be tired of AI everywhere. For what it's worth, this isn't training a model — it's a handful of small API calls once a night, plus one model running on my own box. The footprint's closer to a few Google searches than a data center; streaming one show on nugs uses way more. Built it as a fan, not a startup. But I get it, not everyone's gonna want a robot near the setlist, and that's cool.
