Amazing #s as usual for PJ..it took U2 3 summers to get to that number,how sad is that ??..that tops Dave Matthews Band so far this summer..they are at I believe 88 now.... this past weekend..DMB played Alpine Valley (a very popular spot for them,and the site of PJ20).07.07,07.08.12....they played 46 different songs over 2 nights..
N1..24 songs,2 hrs 48 min of song time...
N2 22 songs,3 hrs,2 min of song time...
between PJ and DMB..both are so great live......I hate to say it.. but U2 dont come close to PJ or DMB live... they could NEVER play 2 nights,in 1 city without 1 repeat....not possible...

2009-2010-2011 .. they had about half those numbers right? yes that is a sad side of U2 .. mainly because of the guys attitude but i'd put also the fans attitude who starts "crying" if certain songs are dropped for some nights.
PJ and DMB attitude (from what you say .. i don't know them so much) is probably an extreme .. and i clearly love it .. but there is an in between more or less which is .. The Boss. a main structure of the show and rotation for the rest throwing some news every show. (and very few equal things in the double dates).
he's gone over 100 up to now.
rotation is the possible (and the only for me) key and i guess U2 catalogue permits it.
