Flyer calculations (controversial!)
I know this is going to put me in the category of Mr. Anal... Here goes.
I saw there were 642 performers on the flyer front. I multiplied by 60 to get the number of minutes and got 38520 minutes. The flyer said 37440 minutes, though. So I was thinking "WTF?" Did they actually go count the raw minutes? Did they subtract for every second that MC E-By-Gum talks or for random events like the crowd singing Happy Birthday to Hullabaloo? Did some people only play 45 minute sets? If so, were there others that played 2 hour sets?! So then I worked backwards and divided 37440 minutes (the number on the flyer) by 60. I got 624. 642 vs 624 performers. Probably the last two digits got swapped. But which is right?!?!?! The number of performers or the number of minutes? Or did you multiply by some sick number other than 60?!?! Oh my God, how will I be able to sleep tonight? I will try counting sheep but will see nothing but two sets of numbers jumping over white-picket-Hullabaloo-spotlight-lit-fences mocking me with MC E-By-Gum yelling "Sex fohty TOO / Sex twenty FOH / Yeh yeh yeh / Only for the hardcoh." |

Maybe it is the total length of each party added end to end.

I'll subscribe to Busta's rationalization.
...add to that there have been some tag-team sets here and there. (* lightbulb *) |

642 x 60 would be the easy way but I took a bit of time going through the old flyers and took other factors into account like extended sets (I spun for 2 hours at the anthems, Brisk spun for 90 minutes at Into the Blue & Funtopia 2, etc...).
