Accessing Gigs & Live Stage

1. Open the Navigation Drawer (☰) and tap Gigs & Live Stage.
2. The view displays active and upcoming performances, filterable via tabs:
   • [Upcoming Shows]: Future dates sequenced chronologically.
   • [Archived]: Past gigs and historical setlists.
3. Shows whose calendar dates have passed automatically display an amber "Past" badge, with a 1-click Archive action to keep your active schedule uncluttered.

Creating a New Gig & Starter Presets

Tap + New Gig in the action bar to open the gig configuration dialog:

• Venue Name & Date: e.g. The Troubadour, 2026-11-14.
• Custom Title (Optional): e.g. Album Release Tour — Night 1. If omitted, BandRoom automatically formats the title as [Venue] - [Date].
• Starter Presets: Scaffold your setlist in seconds:
  • Blank: Starts with an empty setlist ready for custom track curation.
  • 1-Set Festival: Pre-populates with a single "Set 1" header; ideal for tight 30–60 minute club and festival slots.
  • 2-Set Show with Break: Pre-populates "Set 1", "Set 2" with a 15-minute intermission, and an "Encore" block.
