20 songs is pretty standard, don't you think? also that was an outdoor show at a museum, so maybe a normal club show will get a few more.

[Vas Deferens]

oh i guess 20 songs is good...they'll just be done in an hour..

I bet Robbie Fulks' show is twice as long as the Superchunk show tonight.

Also, Superchunk tonight.  My shows this year have been few and far between, but man, I've been jazzed about all of them (well, except Surfer Blood/POBPAH).

Quantity != quality.

Those of us who were at that nearly 3-hour Hole show know this better than anybody else.

I personally don't need more than an hour from 75% of the bands I see nowadays. A band that can hit me over the head and leave me wanting more is much more successful performance-wise than a band that leaves me standing there thinking "finish up already. I wanna go home."

I've seen both (have you?), and in my opinion, neither are boring.

[Vas Deferens]

ok, so would you like a 30 minute or a 3 hour Spiritualized show?
