He played for a little over 2 hours, so no complaints here....

[TMS2787]

He played over two hours? Last night he played for an hour and fifty minutes.

I would've liked to hear Taylor more than the song he played second last night, which escapes my mind right now. But I'm glad to see he still switches it up a bit every night.

[JimmyIymmiJ]

It was about 2 hours and 5 minutes as long as you count the break for the encore and whatnot... Of course, I could be wrong because I wasn't paying that close of attention, but as I recall he went on at 8:50 and played till a little before 11...

[TMS2787]

Ah I see. I'm pretty sure he went on at 9:05 PM last night (five minutes late) and ended up at 10:55 PM. I looked at that setlist and there is a few addition medly type songs he played in the main which didn't happen last night. Which takes up more time. Was it sold out?

[JimmyIymmiJ]

I never heard officially if it was or not, but it was completely packed so I assume it was

[SandManTEND13]

Wow two hours!! that would be nice, I know our show was sold out and it was muddy as hell so people in our lawn were tossing mud and stuff i was in a seat so I was good to go

[JimmyIymmiJ]

Yeah, I had a seat too but our lawn looked pretty calm. It was cold as hell for June, though (especially for someone like me who moved to Florida a couple years ago). I miss his older shows, though, because his Detroit shows used to be general admission seats (might have been like that everywhere, but I don't know), so you just had to get there early and you were right up front. It's changed quite a bit, though, because I can't believe how big he's packing these places in now compared to what it was a couple of years ago. He still puts on a fun show, though, so I'm happy. And it was nice hearing him talk to the crowd a little, because he used to look so shy up there and would hardly say anything. I think adding Zach helped him out a lot in that department, because he's not shy at all...

[HugoOne]

Does he do the acoustic version of The Horizon Has Been Defeated or the electric? I'm not much of a fan of the electric version but I adore the acoustical.

[JimmyIymmiJ]

It was electric. The only thing he really changed up too much was Bubble Toes which he did with an electric guitar and jammed it up a little bit more. Other than that, all of the songs in the regular set were their regular version, while all of the songs in the encore were just Jack and a guitar (with Mason Jennings and a guitar on Fall Line and his own song).

[TMS2787]

I lawned it up for my show. It was raining but no one got in to any Mud Football...

Oh.
/fail

[JimmyIymmiJ]

That was the only song I was really disappointed to not hear!

[Mufasa23]

Oh man, I am going to see Jack Johnson in London, England on July 2nd and I really hope he plays this much!
There are like 4 opening acts but the concert is meant to go from 4-10:30, so I hope he plays for around two hours. That would be amazing.
I LOVE Jack Johnson and I have never seen him live before so I can't wait.

[Wildness774]

wow not one person from michigan
jack johnsons pretty mellow
and a lot of michigan people moshpit and love hard rock music
lol

[JimmyIymmiJ]

I moved to FL a couple years ago, but I lived in Detroit for about 25 years. We were visiting our family and I saw he was playing up there, so it worked out perfectly for me (especially considering he's not hitting Tampa on this tour). I definitely enjoy some harder music, but I love Jack still.

[locustreign]

i've only seen him once, he opened for Ben Harper and during harpers encore they both came out and did Bob Marley's High Tide or Low Tide and it was amazing

[JimmyIymmiJ]

I went to that tour when it was in Philly. That was pretty sweet, because I remember they did that at my show too.
