In an interview on Chart Attack, Tomethy Furse and Joshua Von Grimm of the Horrors admitted that they are horrified by bands that play overly long sets. Joshua: "I hate seeing bands that play longer than 40 minutes. I get really bored. If you think about it, you're just standing there watching people, and no one watches people for longer than 40 minutes. It just gets boring." Tomethy: "Sitting there listening for an hour, hour-and-a-half." Joshua: "Nobody wants that." Tomethy: "Nobody would do that. Why would anyone watch a band for an hour-and-a-half?"
Are there any bands that deserve to play for 90 minutes?
