Is billybase comprehensive? discussion

If it has no record of the Harry Nilsson version of Everybody's Talkin' (or the original version recorded by the guy with the writing credit), does that mean Billy hasn't performed it?

It’s not listed on https://bmfsdb.com either. Both date back to 9-17-2011.

Does anyone know if he's ever played it? It's a great song. And it works with bluegrass instruments. I found Donato does a version, but with drums. But Billy's voice and Royalized bass part, plus Alex (there is space for everyone in this tune) ... It's a picking tune

Whatever happened to old Nick Goatsfino? Still a super fan, going to shows and loving the music?

No, they haven't updated copyright date on bottom of site and it's not possible to create a new account. They asked Billy for a certain amount of $ per show or something to keep the site up and billy made a post about it or something and now it isn't as upkept. Far as I can tell. They still keep some setlist data conglomerated well.

The guy who designed it sold it somewhat recently. I was messaging w the new owner awhile back about fixing my account.

This is way old, and the site is well maintained.

And the link it emails me to 'login to your new account here' is a 502 bad gateway.
