shows have typically been 27-28 songs for the last 20+ years. if you cut out the standard 3-4 covers, that's what we're looking at. i'll tell you in september how i feel about it, but i can't blame the band. i wonder if the Earthlings tour had any effect. those shows weren't marathons like a lot of PJs. EV also probably scratched his itch doing covers on that tour.

I didn’t even think about it when I wrote my post. But Ed did have covid so maybe he’s still getting his stamina going. The real judge will be when I listen to the shows.warehouse wrote:shows have typically been 27-28 songs for the last 20+ years. if you cut out the standard 3-4 covers, that's what we're looking at. i'll tell you in september how i feel about it, but i can't blame the band. i wonder if the Earthlings tour had any effect. those shows weren't marathons like a lot of PJs.

Didn't Mike have some sort of hand issue during points of the 2018 tour? Not sure if that's a lingering issue too.lowlight79 wrote:I didn’t even think about it when I wrote my post.

I'll take the 23 song sets with no covers over the 33 song marathons with lots of covers. However, 27ish songs is the sweet spot to me.
