Setlist extremes and streaks — the longest shows, the songs gone the longest, the biggest comebacks, and how much consecutive shows repeat each other. Length and overlap follow the window/scope; gaps and comebacks are all-time, counting every act’s shows.

53%

Consecutive nights by the same act share 53% of their setlist on average, across 1,683 back-to-back show pairs in this window.

On 48 nights the same act played a full show that repeated nothing from the night before. The most extreme: in Dec 2024, two nights at Cain's Ballroom (Tulsa, OK) shared none of the 67 songs between them.

Overlap by year
About this metric

“Consecutive” pairs are two shows by the same act within a week of each other, so a night and the next one across a tour break aren’t counted as back-to-back. Overlap is Jaccard similarity — shared songs ÷ the two shows’ combined distinct songs — so it doesn’t reward or penalise long setlists. Shows with no recorded setlist are skipped. The chart spans every year in scope; a selected timeframe shades its years.
