last.fm and gig photos

It looks like last.fm is leveraging flickr's machine tags in the next update so that event pages will pull photos of said event straight from flickr. It's a relief that they're doing that, rather than inventing their own photo hosting (the event stuff seemed a bit NIH-like - why not use something like upcoming.org?). For instance, you should be able to see some Pink Stainless Tail photos on this event page, once the changes go live (if you're a subscriber, you can try it on the beta site now, though I'm still waiting for it to catch up and notice I tagged my photos).

but there's other things worth worrying about too, like :
