I don't think he's taken an intermission since around 2010 so I don't think that argument holds any water. Less than 2 hours is still very short.

Jimmy has pretty much taken a break for the last 15 years. Recently the last few years Mac has stepped in to play but in the past it has been Robert G, Nadira, or Tina. I believe you are incorrect. And, Jimmy's shows have always ranged 23-26 songs.

I wasn't referring to intermission when I said "mid-show break", I was referring to when Jimmy goes off stage for about 5 minutes while Mac McAnally plays a solo or Nadirah sings a solo, or Robert Greenidge does a short steel drum medley. Jimmy did not leave the stage in Charleston which was a change from the recent norm during the shows. He still played 25 songs which his his usual average per show

I'm editing the show now (and will have it posted soon). The run time is 01:54:43, which has been around the typical show length during the past tour.
