    Still hard to swallow that the show is almost over 
    135 minutes in QC. There is no short set problem. The ridiculous 35 song sets are over because MC and EV are too old to do that at full quality, and have been for 10 years. The quality has been better after the pandemic. They are more focused.
    I don’t know how many times it has to get repeated over and over … nobody is asking for 35 … but all 10 shows I’ve been to since 2010 were 30 or more and we can’t even get 25 this year
    Yes, I know that. But it didn't become 23 songs because they are lazy and went to 90 min shows. They made a conscious decision to focus, slow down the tempo, and put on the highest quality show possible. The days of appeasing the setlist box checkers are over, and they never sounded better for it. They literally got their groove back. 
    But these 22 song sets are not better or more focused the the old 30 song sets.  We are losing an average of 7-10 songs and gaining nothing in return.  It’s not going to stop me from going to shows but I’m tired of people pretending it’s not a huge change l.

    well said mortality.  I loved the line "The days of appeasing the setlist box checkers are over".  I never understood those types.  There are certain songs I love that I have heard before live, and I would rather hear those songs again over a song I have never heard live that I don't like as much.

    I listen to the 2021-2022 stuff a lot. It's becoming my favorite boot era.

    GTF, Even Flow, Daughter, and a bunch others from '00-'18 are skips for me now.

    They are now the best they've been since each of those songs came out.

    EV is turning 58. Matt and Jeff are 59. Try to sing with the same energy as Ed or get behind a drum kit for 2+ hours and let me know how you're feeling after. Man, complainers gonna complain. Just go enjoy these shows and the experience of seeing a legendary band with a community of fans like no other. No other band I've seen in the last 15 years are playing 30 songs per night.

    If they just took some of the jams out of some songs like corduroy, and shortened other jams, they could easily add 2-3 songs in the same total set length. 
    Of course. And if they took out Evenflow, they could add 2 of your favorite picks. If they want to jam I want them to jam. The corduroy one can go though... because it's not even a jam, it's a pointless extended breakdown.

     Not asking for or even expecting 30 … but 25?  I don’t think it’s too much to ask for the best live band of the last 30 years

    What's the point of that? We want to hear them Jam. I don't want shorter versions just to fit more songs.

    They are better. Much better. The 2 shows saw in the last year are better than my 8 previous, and there is no competition until getting back to Philly Spectrum and Bonnaroo1. That's pre 2010. Matt learned how to drum in PJ during the pandemic and they sound like a new fucking band. Better than ever. 135 minutes in QC and it was only 22 songs because of the tempo and focus on quality.
