In short: 17 shows in 2023 and 16 of them rated (Mau P in November never got a score), an average of 8.6 out of 10. Four perfect 10s, nothing below a 6.

In 2023 I gave all but one show a score out of 10. Tap any row.

How the scores spread

Half of the year scored 9 or higher. Nothing scored below a 6.

I went to one more show that year, Mau P at Concord Music Hall in November, but didn't score it. So far 2023 is the only year with scores. All 47 shows are in 47 shows since 2018.
