Geez-us, that's a lot of numbers!
Can you throw in there an "average length of setlist" comparison for good measure?
Wow! amazing work, thank you very much.
I actually read through everything.

I am not trying to be a pain, after all your great work.
Are you sure this is correct though:

"2009 Tour songs played every night: None"
(I thought Depression was played every night)

And this:
"2000 Tour songs played 3 times:.... Montreal"
(I thought Montreal was played just once on that tour)
Thanks Tthip
I've fixed the Montreal entry. As for The Depression Suite - according to the hip site <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://thehip.com/shows/index.html?SetListAction=ShowYear&PA=GetSetList&ConcertID=6307&ShowYear=2009&itemID=04_29">http://thehip.com/shows/index.html?SetL ... emID=04_29</a><!-- m --> and the tour forum <!-- l --><a class="postlink-local" href="http://hipbase.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=40&t=13835">viewtopic.php?f=40&t=13835</a><!-- l --> - it wasn't played at Centre In The Square in Kitchener on April 29 2009 unless it was a mistake on both sites.

I'm sure there are more errors - it was late when I typed this up....
Thanks for the hard work. Some amazing stats in there for us hardcores..
Good work - one other tiny nitpick - it says on the 2000 tour So Hard Done By was only played as an encore. In Ft Collins CO 10.27.00 it was played during the first set.

Thanks Briansmccabe - you are right - I've corrected the EXCEL doc and the original post
Kudos to you for all that hard work! Interesting to read, and while we all remember that the length of the shows was longer in 2000, maybe we are romanticizing that tour just a bit. I guess it can be said that considering there have been 4 studio albums released since, you'd like to see more than ten songs played over the last tour, but really, they aren't that different.

Not to mention...this tour still has some legs...
