Longest DMB Setlist?

[Lbacker]

J/w. I have been looking through DMBalmanac and there is no way to order all of the DMB shows to see which has the longest time ever. So any know? A friend of mine asked me the question and he shot me down cause I don't know the answer so help me out here. Longest DMB setlist in minutes?

[Taylor2885]

I don't know if it's bullshit or not, because I've never heard of this happening, but a friend of mine CLAIMS to have gone a D&T show that lasted five or six hours

But that's up in the air, I've never seen a show on DMBalmanac that even came close to being that long.

Yeh he says it was from early in their (dave and tim) touring days in a small coffee shop ... which I can see as being possible, just doesn't seem likely. I would love to go to a six-hour D&T show though

and played the 1 hour 20 minute intro to bartender

[Kahn]

I would guess 3-4 hours.

Just FYI, the longest Phish set was the Big Cypress 99/00 millenium show. They played a single set from 11pm to 8am with no breaks.

2: #Meatstick^ -> Auld Lang Syne, Down with Disease -> Llama, Bathtub Gin^^, Heavy Things^^^, ^^^^Twist Around > Prince Caspian > Rock and Roll, You Enjoy Myself%, Crosseyed and Painless, The Inlaw Josie Wales%%, Sand -> Quadrophonic Topplings%%%, Slave to the Traffic Light, Albuquerque, Reba, Axilla, Uncle Pen, David Bowie, My Soul, Drowned -> After Midnight reprise, The Horse > Silent in the Morning, Bittersweet Motel, Piper** -> Free, Lawn Boy, Hold Your Head Up > Love You%%%% > Hold Your Head Up, Roses are Free, Bug, $Also Sprach Zarathustra > Wading in the Velvet Sea, Meatstick$$ (7:45)

Set 2 was played from midnight to sunrise, non-stop.
+With marshmallow war, lots of balloons, and aerial tortillas.
*With Fish on vacuum.
**Unfinished.
***First time played; J.J. Cale cover from the album "Naturally" (best known for the Eric Clapton version).
#Set begins around 11:35 pm with Father Time on stage pedaling away at a stationary bike, powering a large clock, with the sound of the gears on the PA (possibly a Siket Disc track?). At approximately 11:50 pm, Father Time collapses from exhaustion and the clock stops. At this time, with appropriate sound effects, a large fan boat entered the field from halfway back, stage right. Soon the sides and top of the fan boat were blown off to reveal the band riding in the hot dog from 12-31-94. The hot dog approached the stage as the band threw leis and other goodies into the crowd. Once the hot dog reached the stage, the band disembarked carrying several meatsticks. They fed these to Father Time, reviving him to drive to clock to midnight.
^Instrumental version, with the band picking up the song from a pre-recorded version played during the hot dog ride.
^^With vocal jam, as Trey, Mike, and Page sang the notes as they played them.
^^^Recorded live for ABC's Millennium coverage; Trey instructed the crowd to chant the word "Cheesecake" after the song (instead of applauding), in an attempt to confuse TV viewers; Trey introduced the band for the recorded footage and offered a message of peace and harmony for the world ("The right lane is for driving. The left lane is for passing. So stay in the right lane unless you're passing."). ^^^^Preceded by "Meatstick" tease (possibly as Central Time hit midnight).
%With "Cheesecake" vocal jam.
%%Trey solo acoustic.
%%%With Mike holding up a voice box, repeating the phrase "Quadrophonic Toppling."
%%%%With Fish on vacuum; Fish introduced Page before the song, and Mike and Trey afterwards, and the band as "Phish 2000."
$Preceded by a tease of the "Harry Hood" intro.
$$No encore; post-show music was the Beatles' "Here Comes the Sun."

Yeh i call it too, but i'll ask him anyway.

[hofdaddy]

Tell him he's full of shit. There's no fuckin way

[filmdude100cms]

nah, i really dont think either of them have the stamina to go that long. like you said the best chance wouldb e early D+T but he didnt have a big enough catalogue to do it. sooo 3.5, runnin close to 4, i can see.... but 5 or 6.. nah.

[carter29]

i think that dmb (or D+T) played a show reaching the 5 hour mark we would have known this as more common knowledge, i mean thats getting into springsteen length shows
