Rumpelstiltskin2000 Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 You know how sometimes late at night you just click at things on your phone? I know this show isn't Hella Mega but I ended up noticing this: Do you think this is just because the venue don't know Green Day or an indicator of the length of set we might get?

Beerjeezus Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 I think it could be the runtime. If they cut down on the heyhos, long songs and kfad, they could still play a reasonable set in 90 minutes. Hopefully it wouldn't mean they only play the hits - a shorter set with more variety could be a good compromise. If this is a choice they made, I don't really have a problem to accept it. Obviously I'd love if they kept playing long shows, but they're human too, so it's understandable if they don't feel like doing it any more. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah (like me!) the guys are getting older and probably can't keep playing those long sets anymore. Most shows on the RevRad Tour were just over two hours whereas it was closer to three hours on the 21CB Tour 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A shorter, high energy set might be the good choice over a bit tired longer one (if that was the alternative). Of course, they're invincible, but I guess we have to respect if they need to take measures to stay that way 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yosuke Hanamura Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 Or, y’know, it could just be that their time is cut shorter because of this stupid tour. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Grohl Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 If the sets are gonna be shorter from now on because they don't want to play long shows, tickets need to be cheaper. Personally I'd be pissed of I paid a hefty amount for a show and the band's set was short. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paola17 Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 Definitely don't think it will be cut much, if at all. Both the doors and the shows are starting early. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimmyChunks Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 Doors are 6 hours before official venue curfew times (in the areas they have curfews). So, the math is pretty easy from there. Interrupters-quickest case, half hour after doors and set for 45: that leaves 4:45 left Fallout boy- gear change 30 mins, set 1 hour, there’s 3:15 left weezer- gear change 30 mins, set 1 hour, there’s 1:45 left Green Day- gear change 30 mins, 1:15 left. But of course if there’s no curfew they could go longer. No way though are we seeing 21st Century Breakdown or even standard set times. I’m cool with it, I’ve been lucky enough to have my share of epic shows, but just to manage expectations I am fully expecting a shorter festival- type set. Edit- I flipped the fallout/ Weezer expected order by accident, it seems Weezer will play before fallout. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerjeezus Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 I'm honestly very curious about whether or not they play a longer set at the shows they're playing on their own or at festivals where headliners are supposed to play their standard show. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. Like people have said, they may have a slightly shorter run time because of co-headlining, but otherwise, I think their sets will get longer over time. 😴 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those guys are just amazing during live performance and their songs are so good. My top bands when I'll see them in August will definitively be 1- Green Day 2- The Interrupters 3- Weezer 4- Fall Out Boy I think the same.

In Italy in 2013 they played Going To Pasalaqua / Waiting / Nice Guys Finish Last In Swizterland 2013 + Italy 2017 they played 2000 Light Years Away but i would like more songs and more often? 😂 And even from RevRad, I would like to listen to Bouncing Out The Wall for exemple Edited October 13, 2019 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solongfromthestars Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 Their sets will only get shorter, I think, just because they're getting older. Makes sense for Hella Mega sets to be shorter anyway, but I'm intrigued to know how long the solo shows will be this time around. I don't mind whether King for a Day stays or not. I'm sure it'll be one of the last songs to go, though 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah me too. That show that I posted is one of the headlining shows in Asia!
