A medley would throw a bone to the fans in the "a" category, while having more time to throw a couple of extra songs for the fans in the "b" category.
I wouldn't like a medley, but tbh, if they decided to go that route I wouldn't leave the concert angry because of that...
Exactly what i wanted to say
