using machine tags is an option and was discussed earlier. Please suggest alternatives to flickr while we investigate possible implementation.

An error occurred while saving the comment jubano commentedJust curious, could you even piggy-back off face-book somehow in order to create a photo album per show? That might be kind of hack-ish as well but just a thought. I have seen many others do it.
An error occurred while saving the comment jubano commentedI would say you could start like that but I would try to get the resources if you want the site to become a more valuable respected website on the net. Doesn't Google give money to companies (or individuals) that are doing cool projects like this and need support to get things going? Also, when you say resources, do you mean man-power or lack of hardware / server space?
An error occurred while saving the comment jubano commentedLinking to flickr is a poor idea anyways. You should just allow photo uploads from users to directly store the photos on the setlist.fm servers and have them be community managed in case someone uploads invalid or improper photos (e.g. nudity). That is the only way I can see this working well. Linking to some other service is a hack and nobody likes to be directed away from the site they are currently on (including myself)

The more I've thought about this, the more I like the idea of the previous comment. Upload the photos elsewhere and use machine tags to put them in a special section on setlist.fm
Google+ is a very good option over Flikr since it's FREE! (it's essentially Picassa)
