End early? Long show? Start later than 6:30? So many questions but I'm excited about this tid bit.

    I'm guessing they don't go on until around 6:50. And then play until close to 10.

    They have a pretty hard curfew of 10:30. They were done right on 10:30 for night 1 and blew past it for night 2 at 10:47. People took forever to get in their seats in 2016 too.

    Agreed.  They came on just after 7:30 both nights in 2016.

    They are trying their best to get people into the stadium at a decent time, but nobody will listen.  Then people will bitch when the first notes start by 7:30 and they are still in line getting a beer or searching for a poster.  As others said, Fenway curfew is strict and they probably want to give themselves as much time as possible.

    We were leaving the Yard House in 2016 and I heard someone say, "there's no way they'll start before the sun goes down.  We don't need to be in there until 8:30 or so" I told him not to be so sure.  His reply?  "It's a rock show buddy, they don't play until it gets dark"  I bet he missed at least the first 5-6 songs.

    2016 night 1, 4 songs got scratched from encore 2 (red mosquito, lukin, betterman, indifference) due to 10:30 curfew. i gladly welcome a 6:30 start time for a long ass show!
    ...just got a fresh bottle.
