Shortest/Longest Setlist

GlasgowChivas

Doing the Terrace Stomp
Assuming a Setlist of 20 songs; using only the track lengths from singes/albums what would be the Shortest Set he could play and what would be the Longest?
 
I feel your question is to find out the best time for you to ask your Dad to pick you up after the concert. So, I'll give you the answer to a question you never asked.

Phranc who was the support for Caird Hall, Dundee '91 came on when we were all waiting for the band to come on. She went to the mic and said that Morrissey had a throat infection and that he had been ordered by his doctor not to perform that night because it could damage his vocal cords. We were gobsmacked. She went on to say, he has asked me to say that he loves you all very much.......... therefore he's going to go ahead and try to go on with the concert as planned.

I think that was the shortest I've experienced. It was about 10 songs.

Point of interest: I've never seen so many flowers at a concert before.

In 2006. Some were lucky to experience 23 songs on a night.
 
I think the thread idea is an interesting one. Stop jumping down everyone's throats for f***'s sake.

Thanks for the support...couldn't reply until now coz my wrists were so sore from the slappings!

Thought a list of songs based on length would get everyone talking because it was bound to include some that would never get played live...

When I read this the other day. It got me thinking I'm almost sure 'You Just Haven't Earned It Yet Baby' has been played live. Anybody?

Kewpie is misunderstood a lot on this site I think. Believe me she has driven me nuts too but her heart is in the right place. Her dedication and the help she gives users of this site is much appreciated by me anyway.

When I first responded to this thread, I thought it was, what is the longest/shortest setlist we can expect? When previewing my post, I realised I had not read it correctly. Instead of deleting what I wrote, I amended it.

See what you've started GlasgowChivas!
 
His old standard 17/18 track setlist was ca 70-75 minutes long, when it reached 22 song it sometimes peaked at 115 minutes depending on which song which were played but as far as I know the length didn't vary that much. And not to forget, almost every concert is late.

My intentions were noble! What i meant was if he opened with his longest track, then played the second longest ect until he hit twenty songs what would we get?

Don't know all of the track lengths but Late Night, Maudlin St is over 7 mins and LIAP is over 7 too so they surely would be near the top?
 
Sorry about the misunderstanding.

Hopefully Kuiper might know the answers.
 
Wait, are you asking just as a trivia thing, or to gauge how long the show might be?

At the shows I saw earlier this year, support went on promptly at start time, Moz went on about an hour to an hour and five minutes later, and played for about an hour and twenty minutes. Add five minutes to stagger, dazed, out to the doors.

Out of curiosity, I opened Windows Media Explorer (which I like nine times better than stinking iTunes) and pulled up all Morrissey and Smiths songs, then clicked the column header over track length to sort all from longest to shortest. A second click toggles to shortest to longest. Much easier to see that way.

This was just a trivia thing, not a guage for the upcoming shows.

Was thinking last night if Moz went "f'them! i'm doing the shortest show possible based on track lenght only and at a maximum of twenty songs" - what would we get?
 
I did a quick and dirty list with the shortest 6 Smiths songs and the shortest 14 solo songs, and it clocked in right around 45 minutes. I haven't calculated the longest...
 
his shortest setlist was when he played the boxers tour (1 hour)
i wasnt there but i read reviews...
