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.

Didn't Mike have some sort of hand issue during points of the 2018 tour? Not sure if that's a lingering issue too.

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.

I feel like the critiques of Andy Warhol were very similar.
