I like the idea, but sometimes there are shows inside the date range that are not part of the tour. For example, radio and television appearances. So I think we would need a way to exempt a setlist within the date range from being part of the tour.

Moderators already have the ability to do this. So for now, you can contact a Moderator and ask him/her to update it for you.

Where "xxxxxxxx" is the username of the moderator you want to contact.
And leave a comment at the bottom of the page.

I agree.
In the meantime you can notify a moderator and we can delete the duplicates. Here is a list of moderators:

I see wrong dates added all the time. Common mistakes include using "July" instead of "June" and vice versa. Or confusing the month/day, so October 5 becomes May 10. Both of those result in the date being wrong by more than just a few days. Also, the Last.fm import feature usually uses the wrong date when importing multi-day events.
I see wrong venues added all the time. This is especially true for festivals, since many people still put the festival name in the "Tour" field rather than the "Venue" field. The Last.fm import feature is also guilty here, it's constantly adding duplicate and incorrect venue names that need to be fixed.
I see wrong artists added all the time. And not just Dave Matthews Band vs. Dave Matthews, Jimi Hendrix vs. The Jimi Hendrix Experience, etc. Some artists have multiple entries in the database, because there are multiple bands with the same name -- Iron Maiden, Eagles, Incubus, Annihilator, etc. It's not uncommon for someone to add a setlist using the wrong artist. For example, they used "Eagles (Reggae artist)" instead of "Eagles (US country rock band)". The Last.fm import feature is also guilty of this. When it adds Annihilator setlists, it uses "Annihilator (hardcore gabber artist Scott Brown)" instead of "Annihilator (Heavy Metal Band)".
I don't think it's that uncommon for more than one of the above problems to occur on the same setlist. Under the changes proposed here, these problems couldn't be corrected. So more than likely, the incorrect setlist would just remain on the site, and someone would add a new setlist with the correct info. Then you have 2 setlists on the site, one of which is wrong, but the duplicates aren't necessarily easy to detect since the artist/date/venue is different. In my opinion, that's a bigger problem than the one we're trying to prevent (vandalism).
Also, how would you really restrict someone from changing 2 attributes? Couldn't someone just edit the setlist once to change the date, then edit it again to change the venue?
In conclusion, you'll notice I meantioned a lot of problems with the Last.fm import feature in this post. I wrote a whole separate post about problems with the Last.fm import feature, but no one seems to have noticed it. So I thought I would link to it here:

Go to the artist statistics page. For example, for Pink Floyd it's:
http://www.setlist.fm/stats/pink-floyd-13d6adc5.html
Then click on the year on the left side of the page. For example, here's the direct link for 1970's Pink Floyd:
http://www.setlist.fm/search?query=artist:(Pink+Floyd)+date:[1970-01-01+TO+1970-12-31]Or go to advanced search, and type in the artist and the date range.

I am slowly going around and merging all the duplicate venues in English-speaking countries (USA, Canada, United Kingdom, Australia, etc.).
I think what would help a lot is if the old venue names were removed from the list of choices, so no one can add a setlist with the old venue name. Either that, or have any setlists that are added with the old venue name, be autocorrected to the new venue name.
I think the forum thread is a good idea too.

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

http://picasaweb.google.com/ might be a possible alternative to flickr

What about doing something like last.fm does, where you upload your photos to flickr.com and tag them with a machine tag?
For example, check out this last.fm event:
http://www.last.fm/event/1138009+Nine+Inch+Nails+at+Terminal+5+on+25+August+2009And since many setlists on setlist.fm are already linked to events on last.fm, maybe we could just use their photos? I don't know...

I think this is a cool idea.
But the stage setlist sometimes differs from the actual setlist played. So it could cause some confusion.

Setlist.fm already has this feature, although not exactly the way you are describing it.
If you add the support act's setlist with the same venue name, it will link to it in the "Related Setlists" box in the upper right side of the page. The venue name has to be exactly the same in order for it to work.
Take this Metallica setlist for example. You can see it links to the support acts' setlists (Lamb Of God and Mastodon).

if it’s the same song, it should be the same songname – with generally is how it’s named on the album. please read the comments in this thread for clarification

My personal preference would be to call it the name as it appears on the album -- in this case "The Amazing Pudding".
The one exception is if the early version continues to be played after the album version is released. For example, Metallica had an early song called "The Mechanix" which was co-written by Dave Mustaine. After Dave Mustaine was kicked out of the band, Metallica changed the lyrics and called the song "The Four Horsemen" which was released on their first album. However, Dave Mustaine went on to form the band Megadeth and they still perform the original version of "The Mechanix" to this day. So in this case, when I added all of the early Metallica setlists I left the song as "The Mechanix" instead of changing it to "The Four Horsemen".
I created this idea when the e-mail notifications were having lots of problems. The e-mail notifications have been working great lately, so this idea isn't that important anymore. It would still be nice though.
