I wanted to share some cool data about my favorite rock band, Ghost. I was curious to see how their albums trended over time in the live shows, so I put together a Python script to scrape data off setlist.fm and compiled the statistics into some nice graphics. Setlist.fm presents this information, but not in a very pleasing manner and I was interseted in playing with the data myself. Some other facts I came across:
– Elizabeth (Track on Opus Eponymous) has the longest layoff between consecutive plays (2845 days)
– Ritual (Track on Opus Eponymous) has appeared in 92.1% concerts (appearing 885 times!)
– Death Knell (Track on Opus Eponymous) has been played 233 times, but has not been played since August 8th, 2015.

Why would you put the albums on the right in the opposite order to how they appear on the graph?
