    i hear you, however, i'm not sure that the band can legitimately keep up the energy, and keep the crowd as engaged as they would like, with shows that are any longer. those guys are up there running a marathon of sorts, anything over 2.5 hours is bound to have diminishing returns.

    it's not 2003 anymore, it's a pretty long tour considering what they've done lately so I wouldn't expect marathon shows, though some dates might be longer than others...

    It better not. The northwest is still stuck with an opener. :roll: I'd be pissed if that meant we got a shorter PJ show than everyone else.

    Should mean more songs over more time, with a 15-20 min break in there too. This is a genius idea by them, and just what so many have been wanting them to do.

    My prediction-

    Slight chance that Ed does a pre-set at these shows promptly at 7:30. I strongly suggest being in the venue at 7:30. Might not happen at every show, but certainly could happen at any of them.

    The full set won't start until 8:00 - 8:15 every night. Mark it down. They play until around 10:45 every night. Maybe 10:30, maybe 11:00.
