Default shorter shows?
as the dates of the tour go by, it seems the setlist is shorter than it was in the beggining in japan. they only do 'long' shows in japan? are they tired? what do u think?

Daft reason? Could it be that they play alot more shows in the US than say Europe. But all the UK dates are stadiums and ones a 100 000 capacity park. They will be 2 1/2 hour shows. America get hundreds of chances to see them at 2 hours a night, we get a few at 2 1/2 hours a night... quite simple.

I saw them in Albany New York. They played for 2 1/2 rocking hours. I saw them on their OWN tour and it was much shorter. Can't wait to see them in August.

Yes, OWN tour was much shorter. I was a bit annoyed at that. This time around though, they did much better.

The shows now are shorter because they have to end the show at a specific time (forgot the word at the moment). They can't play as long as they want to.
