Longest EC show?
Longest EC show?
Bruce Springsteen clocked in at more than 4 hours recently in Helsinki at the last European show this summer. Which Elvis show is the longest? One of the Almost BLue short tour shows? One of the River in Reverse shows? Any good proposals???

The 2005 Imposters w/ Emmylou Harris shows were quite long, as I recall.
And, yeah -- the Almost Blue show in Nashville in January 1982 was 40+ songs, I believe.

Some of the later UK 1984 shoes in October of that year were incredibly long, as I recall. Didn't make it to the Hammersmith shoes but according to VG they were quite epic !!

The boot of 2006-07-18 New Orleans is 3 hours and 3 minutes.
The 1982 Nashville show had more songs but was a relatively modest 2 hours and 16 minutes.

without verifying, i think 12-31-81 NYC was 44 songs only topped by 45 at the EMMYLOU Wallingford, CT 7-22-05 show (YES, counting song fragments!) however, longest show on the clock that i ever saw, i believe, was the CONFEDERATES 10-27-1986 Tower Theatre Philly METS WIN THE WORLD SERIES extravaganza at 2:59. i could be wrong.

You went through all of that just to name-check the 1986 Mets?
