I would never attend multiple shows in a row with the same setlist. Fortunately those aren’t the kind of bands I like to go see play

Saw multiple runs of back-to-back shows with the Grateful Dead. Rarely ever repeated a song. Always a great experience.
Same with Widspread Panic and Phish.More recently Billy MF Strings.
I’d never see a commercial/pop/Taylor Swift/Beyoncé type band once, much less back to back.

Saw Alabama on their 2003 farewell tour back to back nights (Atlanta and Birmingham). While the set lists were similar they weren't identical. Even if they had been the same, it wouldn't have taken away from the experience.

Elton John in 2022. Worth it but yes the setlist was the exact same

I saw Cheap Trick twice in one day.
Cheap Trick are like Burger King's "get it your way" as far as set lists.
I booked a number of shows from 2000-2010 with the focus on new powerpop bands and smaller original powerpop bands from 1977-84. There was usually a more famous band like Cheap Trick, Dwight Twilley etc headlining the shows.
It's often hard to get famous bands with long careers to play sets of songs specific crowds want to hear.
Cheap Trick's manager just sent me a blank form to fill out the set list I wanted them to play.

Yes and they played the exact same set. I booed the moment the second song began. Some people looked uncomfortable by the 4th song, but I was relentless.
I don’t really remember what happened after that.

The Rolling Stones played two nights at the Pontiac Silverdome in Pontiac, Michigan on December 9-10,1989.
I had purchased tickets to the Sunday (Dec.10th) show early on.
The week before the show my wife’s hairdresser broke up with her boyfriend and gave my wife tickets she had purchased for the Saturday show. I later wound up giving her face value for them, and the two of us spent the entire weekend in Detroit catching both performances that weekend.
Both shows were great and nearly identical but Sunday was definitely better.
The Saturday show was filled with boomers who showed up with their then young children and grandchildren. They were all running around and standing on seats, generally just being a nuisance.
Sunday was a different crowd and more like what I expected from The Rolling Stones in those days.
Both performances were overall good though to be honest.

Pearl Jam back to back a couple of times. Only 3 songs were repeats from the night before.

Yes, in 1981 I saw Rod Stewart in Baton Rouge and then drove to Mobile the next night after a couple hours sleep. Pretty sure it was the same setlist, but I was a 20 year old girl and didn’t care.

Not me but a good friend of mine.
Back in the late 80s i had a handful of friends living and working in Dallas. Pink Floyd was playing 3 nights straight in Dallas. One of the guys was a country boy and never did any kind of drugs whatsoever. Well all the guys decide to go see Pink Floyd. They decided to attend on acid. And they even talked the country boy into doing a hit. Country boy enjoyed himself so much that he decided to attend the next show all by himself. Except this time he did 2 hits of acid. lol He didn't make it back to the apartment til 10:00 am the next morning. lol
His exact words: "Life Changing" lol

Alice In Chains at the Ryman Auditorium several years back. Several different songs each night.

Saw the Stones in Dallas at the cotton bowl on a Saturday night and then saw them at the superdome on Monday. Technically not back to back but pretty close. This was the Steel wheels tour in 89

Have seen DMB at the gorge two nights in a row on three separate occasions. Would gladly do it again.

Saw Cody Johnson on back to back nights in Atlanta and Columbia, SC. Very different set list for each show.

I saw Rush when they were an opening act for Blue Oyster Cult.
They were doing their 2112 album and BOC was doing The Reaper album.
That was a show.
Did not see that tour but do recall that lineup coming through town

I was planning on doing that with TOol this year because they did a couple nights in Cali. But Im intothe new Album, and they only did select songs from the previous albums at the very end.
I passed.

Seeing bands 2 or 3 nights in a row is kinda the point for real jam bands. And yes, I saw Dead & Co, JRAD and Billy Strings on multiple nights in 2024
