Excellent, as always, but too darn short.  By too short I mean less than an hour and fifteen.  I get this a lot in the City.  When I last saw Primus they played three sets and an encore, with extended jams etc.  A lot of people here talk about unions (stage crew), zoning or other regs put a hard stop time on concerts here.  I don't know, does anyone know anything about this?
 
For Primus fans, I thought this was a pretty excellent DVD:

That isn't clear.  What I'm getting at is that when I've seen Primus in Seattle, Burlington, etc., they played forever, and here they didn't play long at all.  And I could say this for a couple other bands too.  So you hear things like the crews at the venues are union and won't work late, or it would cost too much, or there's zoning regs in mid-town that don't allow live music past a certain hour, or whatever.
 
Just wondering if anyone had anything to add to this.
