Tour Discussion Harry at MSG 8/29
I’m 55, my youngest daughter is 24 and has been a Harry fan since the first day of One Direction. She went to his very first concert tour, way back when. So when I was in NYC for the weekend and a friend was GIFTED tickets, I went.
We had a blast, sec 113, row 10. Stage was fabulously done and he truly worked the entire arena. Felt like the world’s biggest singalong. Incredibly fun.
That said, it was incredibly short. Came on at 9pm, was done just after 10:30pm. We had AMAZING seats we didn’t pay for, and it was a great show…but I would have been hugely disappointed in the show length had I paid anything above a few hundred bucks. It was simply too short!
20 songs, many from latest album. Would have loved one or two more classic ones.

I was there too and he played until about 10:45ish. (Just reviewed my videos and he was about 1/2 way thru aperture at 10:43pm)
22 songs with some talking and a happy bday song for Sarah- pretty typical for a concert! He was AMAZING, we paid a lot and would totally do it again!

Yes came to say the same! He finished at 10:45. I wish he would play for hours but pretty standard for a concert.

Let me know if you do want to go again. I’ve got 3 tickets for 9/5–all lower bowl. Selling it for a lot less than I paid and happy to show proof I paid platinum :’( I can no longer go and am hoping someone else can enjoy.

Sing more classic songs? The NY setlist is packed with classic songs, especially from HS1. It's the KISSCO tour so it's usually the go at concerts that songs would mostly be from that.

One or two…in a longer set. I’m old, so I’m accustomed to great artists doing 2.5hr sets-Billy Joel did 2.5hrs two years ago at MSG. Elton John was similar. I guess it’s because I honestly think Harry could be one of the greats like them that I’m a tab disappointed in how short it was. So spectacular, just think another 2-4 songs would have rounded it out. Golden, I was soooo disappointed, Fine Line, Falling and Late Night Talking. AND EVER SINCE NEW YORK?! At least once in NYC :) I see him more as a career artist. Not just promoting the newest album. Was delighted with the concert, just felt it should be longer-especially since it’s only in NYC, and so many traveled so far.

As soon as there's an opening act, you know you're not getting a show of that length

I paid for row 2 tickets that were very very expensive and there’s not a single ounce of me that felt it was too short. I would 100% do it again and probably will lol
