I'm 90 percent sure that the longest set ever put on was by Phish at their big cypress new years celebration 12/31/99. The 1st set went off in the afternoon at an hour 45, while the second set lasted from midnight to sunrise. A grueling 7 hour 45 minute set ending with here comes the sun. Anybody?
The Healing Waters Band with David Wolfe on drums for their last ever concert played a non-stop 8 hour set from 8pm till 4am at Eden Hot Springs in Eden, Arizona.
The band "CAN" from Germany played a set almost twice as long as Phish. And it was their 2nd set of the evening.
