You are right, that is the best way of doing it if you are into live shows and want to sort them by date.
I find that too hard to decipher because it's unnnatural to read dates backwards and so it takes extra mental effort. I'm also bilingual, so 031009, if I translate it to 09 10 03 my brain still has two ways to interpret it.
That was today's essay on information processing. [img]smileys/smiley23.gif[/img] my way is easier on my brain [img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img]
