Adam can never meet everyone's expectations. There will always be someone who didn't get the song they wanted or thought show should be longer or he should talk more or have a better band or or or. He can't please everyone and with thanks to relentless documentation via vids of the shows a climate of disappointment is emerging that has to be disturbing to him - because you know he checks on social media stuff.
Gives me a different perspective on why many artists ban or severely limit videoing of their shows - welcome to the dark side.
I'm really disturbed by how angry some fans seem to be getting over this question while it appears people just going to the show with no real expectations are having a blast and raving about it...
Not directing the above at anyone specifically - is just an observation. YMMV.

Shoshanna Stone: "actually it's the other way around. The longer set is wayyyyy longer than the ticket price. So they're lucky" Is she freaking kidding? "LUCKY"??? People are paying hard-earned money. It's an exchange of goods and services. He's not doing anybody any favors out of the kindness of his heart. Does Adam/his management live in the real world? Are they aware of the price of the tickets---from $40 to $70 or more (PLUS FEES) just for regular tickets. Plus gas (some people are paying for long-distance transportation but that's their decision) and parking. And some people pay for a babysitter and concessions and merchandise at the show. All that output of funds for 70 minutes of a performance? Heck, the wait between acts is 40 minutes. That's a long time to wait for a 70-minute show. A less than 90-minute concert is NOT STANDARD in the music industry. It makes me angry when people (i.e., Shoshanna) are patronizing and treat fans like idiots. If everyone was paying $20 a ticket, then maybe the longer set is "wayyyyy longer than the ticket price." Otherwise, no. It does not seem fair to offer a severely truncated show to some people and not others, if he is not sick, and without adjusting the prices charged accordingly. How come variable ticket prices weren't factored into these contracts? I just frankly don't believe the response about the length of the show being determined by each of these venues (maybe in the case of some casinos, but otherwise I don't buy it). I guess it only applies to venues in America and nowhere else in the world. Maybe everyone should call their respective venues and ask to know, as a paying customer, what rules the venue has laid down for Adam. Adam has been going almost nonstop since his album dropped. I UNDERSTAND if he is just plain exhausted at this point. But that's not the fault of the fans who bought tickets to his show. And because I don't believe Shoshanna's answer about the venue dictating Adam's set time, and since she says he's not sick, it just feels like he's cutting the show short sometimes because he's just "over it" or not feeling it that day, and that just seems like a big FU to fans, fans who've been waiting six years for a tour and many new fans who are seeing him for the first time. It's not the fans' fault if he's overscheduled himself. And sorry if I sound unfeeling, but if that's the situation then I think he just needs to rest every second he's not on stage and make an effort to pretend to want to be there for an extra 15 minutes or so a night, same as he's probably done when he was acting in a stage show. I'd already commented a few days ago on the length of the set so I was trying hard to remain Zen in advance of my concert (Shoshanna's tweets just shattered any chill I had), plus there were already several excellent posts earlier tonight that echo what I feel. So all I'll say is that I have friends coming to Adam's concert who are seeing him solo for the first time and I'd like for them, and any other potential new fans, to have every opportunity to be wowed. Also, for me personally, I go to concerts to experience a connection with an artist and to spend time in that artist's company. Yes, I would prefer that most of that time be spent with them performing, but if they can't or are not willing to do that, then I'd appreciate time spent in some other communal way that I can't get by staying home listening to CDs, with my money in my pocket.

I think it probably would have been better if each venue published the lenght of the concert when they started selling the ticket, that way everyone would decide if she/he wants to invest the money or not and there would not be so many complaints later... Everyone would know what they buy.
I absolutely understand the disappointment of people who expect normal lenght of concert (and since all the shows in Asia and Australia were all hour and half each it's quite normal to expect something similar) and get so much shorter setlist, on the other hand it must has been very frustrating for Adam to go on social media after he gave it all on stage and see the complains... and I really do believe contracts are the reason.... I personally don't think it's just him being "over it"... How could she even lie? She is Adam's publicist, if she wrote some nonsense that the venue could confirm as false it could have negative inpact on Adam.
But I don't agree with Shoshana's tweet that the longer setlist is way longer than the ticket price...

Ok so lm going to ask the question... Let's just put aside the - we want the Asia show thing for a moment....
What would be a reasonable trade? How many songs do people feel $50 should buy them? Is there a quality multiplier - is 15 songs sung by Adam worth 30 by a lesser singer / performer?
I pay the same $20 whether the movie I go to see is 60 minutes or three hours - at the end of the movie it was the quality not the length that determined my enjoyment... It seems ludicrous but that seems to be the argument. That a ticket buys you X amount of Adams time or a certain number of songs.

Dancy, I also have two tickets to sell for the concert in Berlin! I already posted it in the "TOHT-Europe, extra tickets"-thread in the members only section! BTW, for everyone who also attends a concert in Europe, I also posted in some other concert-threads there! (Amsterdam, Hamburg, Vienna, Cologne!)

YMMV. I think it's all the expectations brought on by the FREE streams and videos of every show that have some people feeling cheated and disappointed. If not for the streams and videos, the concert would be what you got whenever you went to see it, and as you said, those going with no expectations are the ones having a great time and loving it..

I.don't. Sorry talk about beliting ADAM. Not to mention self entitlement. Im sorry to use that word again. But its not Adams fault. Not sure its Shoshs fault. She was Just simply awnswering a fan question. If Adam wants to.do a 20 minute show. Or 20'seconds. I.would pay a million dollars lol. Just saying. End of day its quality over quantity.

I've paid good money to see a movie that turned out to be a dud. Or paid good money to eat at a so-called good restaurant and the food didn't live up to their reputation. Another question, what is each stream we view or listen to from the show worth?
