    Honest question, and not trying to stir this thread up anymore than it already has been buttttt: 

    why have we/did we not seen a PJ Amphitheater tour in the 2010's? It seems like its the thing for major bands to hit the ampi's every summer when they are open... It seems they prefer arenas. Anyone know why?

    Saw them in amphitheaters in 2010 and 2011. I think it mostly has to do with them not playing many concerts in the summer the last decade

    I was asking myself the same thing last week.  What was the last US shed show?  PJ20?

    Weather can't impact arena shows.

    If/when they do tour, can they bring it like bruce for the 3 hours of craziness still, or will it be a few less songs?

    With Bruce being old and all, they’re a few years on and it can’t be easy

    Maybe I am missing a couple but we only got Seattle 2 and Rome last year for monster shows. They seemed to be trending the song numbers down last tour for sure. I am curious if this is where they go regularly from here which I would be bummed about especially with a new album taking up 1/3 of that show.

    I would fully expect a decrease in songs. I would not be at all surprised if the postponed show last year due to Ed's voice is a key factor in the decrease in song quantity. Look for more slow songs to, as they will be less of a strain on his voice.

    25-28 songs is fine.  Just make sure to cut 2 or so hits so we aren’t left with greatest hits sets.

    Exactly it all depends on the cuts. Berlin was a great show last year and it was only 27 songs. 

    As far as Eddies voice hurting the number of songs unless he had signs before or during the Amsterdam shows I do not think this was a factor.

    In general I'm 100% on board with them taking out openers again and playing 2:15-2:30 on most nights

    PJ should always open for PJ with an acoustic/unplugged 8 song set. Then they can scale back to 2.5 hours of normal set plus 2 encores.

    They will do what the stones did IMO. Come out hard, do a few, jump into acoustic set on different part of stage, end strong. This will be the stadium recipe I think.

    It used to be closer to 3:15.

    I think I prefer this.  It usually means less covers.

    You guys telling me you would prefer a show that is 25-28 songs long over a Denver 2014, Quebec 2016, Fenway 2 2016, Wrigley 2 2016, Rome 2018, Seattle 2 2018? Just naming a couple of long ones of the top of my head and I realize ballpark shows are not for everyone but we are talking setlist length here.

    Long is not a synonym for good.

    I would take a solid opener and 2:15 over a guaranteed 3 hours
