You can list acts and venues by country - ascending or descending - but it's not easy to find those for an individual country. Especially as you don't know how many pages of results there are. A country selector or filter would be useful - including eg Europe, North America (USA + Canada).

Personally I don't like the random and ever-changing collection of stuff on the front page. I'd rather it changed only every day, say, so if I go back to it in the same browsing session I see the same page and can look further down the items.
