Does anyone know what time the concert was supposed to end that night?

Previously we determined that the last act was on song 7 when he ran off stage. While some speculated that he might do a short set because it was a festival, there were only two acts that night. Based on my experience I believe he was no more than halfway through his set. He later performed a set elsewhere, saying he was performing the set he would have performed in Vegas, and I believe it was around 20 songs.Does anyone know what time the concert was supposed to end that night?

20 remain hospitalized after Las Vegas mass shooting
https://www.reviewjournal.com/crime/shootings/20-remain-hospitalized-after-las-vegas-mass-shooting/
5 of the 20 are still listed in critical condition. I feel very sad for all those who are still hospitalized almost three weeks later. Their serious injuries caused by a lunatic who viciously spewed his vile and bitterness at life upon strangers, who up to the moment of the shooting, were merely enjoying an evening of entertainment. Why, why, why?....
There are various reports of glass falling from the windows high above, not prior but amidst the gunshots. One specifically by the hotel valet but as I can't find it at the moment, consider it rumour.
But along that basis.....considering SP had protective gear inside the room, it appears suicide was not his original plan. Perhaps his grandiose thinking had him making a successful escape and why perhaps there were no explosives in his room.
So then what prompted his suicide? Shattering glass? He misjudged his aim and fired into portions of existing glass and some of the shattered particles flew back into his face? Into his eyes? Once the autopsy report is released, it may hold some answers.
DUNEDIN, Fla. -- Sheriff's deputies conducting a child *advertiser censored* raid on a Florida home on Wednesday found an arsenal of guns and explosives and a homemade silencer, along with a note promising "bloody revenge."
Investigators found the weapons -- including an AK-47 assault rifle, a 50-calibre pistol, a baseball bat with nails jutting out and 2,300 rounds of ammunition -- in a locked closet in the Dunedin, Florida, home where 24-year-old Randall Drake lived with his parents, said Pinellas County Sheriff Bob Gualtieri.
Gualtieri compared Drake to Las Vegas gunman Stephen Paddock in the way he seemed to be acting alone.
"These are the people who are most concerning to us," he said. "What we call the lone wolves, the sleepers who are out there, the people who are not on our radar, the people who have fallen under the radar or off of it. You don't know about them until they engage in devastating acts and kill a whole bunch of people."
The note deputies found in Drake's bedroom read: "My fury at those who imprisoned me shall be vast and without mercy. I shall have my bloody revenge, and then the world will burn burn."
The child *advertiser censored* investigation that led to the search warrant this week began in January, the sheriff said.
Coroner has not concluded his investigation yet..
My assumption has been that he likely had plan A and plan B. Plan A was to escape long enough to do more damage with the explosives in his car and Plan B was to take himself out if that wasn't possible. Probably his end game was always suicide, but where and when he did it depended on how soon he was located by LE.There are various reports of glass falling from the windows high above, not prior but amidst the gunshots.

Not sure where to put this link, but SP was referenced.
Has there ever been any indication that he might have been into child *advertiser censored*?
Complete speculation, imo.

I don't know. Somehow I think that Ellen's gentleness might be more comforting if I was in a hospital bed and seeing the first interview with a key witness /victim.-This is part of what is so disturbing for those that are still hospitalized, and in some cases clinging to life. And for all those that are home and finding their lives to be so devastatingly different. Shutting down news conferences doesnt offer just the simplest of comfort when you are still in the hospital 3 weeks later.
- If I were tuning in from the hospital bed to see the very first TV broadcast of the key witness, it would be far better received on an evening news channel, not a daytime talk show widely known for humor and light topics. Understandable that it may have been a good choice for JC, but not for victims collectively-IMO.
-The degree and enormity of those seriously injured has to be considered in the overall context. A serious major news broadcast is where that is best captured.
Viewership counts in reach ability.

I found a couple more interviews with Brian Hodge, it seems he's making the rounds with Australian media.
In the Carrie & Tommy interview, he doesn't tell the part about hearing shooting, outside, on his way to the hotel after dinner, as he said in previous interviews.
In this one, he starts with saying he was staying on the 32nd floor, he went up the lift after dinner, saw the girl that said there's a shooter, and then went down through the kitchen, warning everyone to leave. After hiding in the bushes for 3 1/2 hours, with his team, the cops saw them. The cops searched them then let them off the property, they walked four or five hours up the strip and stayed somewhere else.
He said people were silent on the walk down the strip, it was very quiet. He praises the cops for saving people and the importance of social media use in the middle of the tragedy.
He says they came back the next day to Mandalay Bay. At that time, he got permission to go up to the 32 floor to get his things, and was given a choice to get his things from his room himself or have them retrieved by the cops. He decided to go himself but when he got to the 32 floor, he was too overwhelmed by the memory of the shooting, the sound of the guns, and didn't want to go back to his room, so he asked the cops to retrieve his things for him.
He wraps it up by saying people shouldn't be allowed to bring 20 guns with scopes and stuff into a hotel room and it shouldn't be allowed.
In the second linked interview, It's shorter but a lot of the same, I did not notice anything new, there.
He never mentions a security guard being killed in these interviews.
Carrie & Tommy BRIAN HODGE VEGAS INTERVIEW
Dave, Sam & Ash, LAS VEGAS - Brian Hodge
In one of the youtube videos I saw, I think it was the one with the couple hunkered down at the bus stop, they mention seeing glass falling from the Mandalay Bay.
I read, several sources, that SP held an Alaskan fishing licence so I did a search..
https://craigmedred.news/2017/10/02/ak-connection/
He just purchased these expensive licences, yet
c/p Marsh said the search of state records has found no indication Paddock has been fishing in Alaska since 2010 or that he ever went hunting here.
Just another little anomaly..
That statement really makes a lot of sense . Thanks.It seems like he intended to do a lot of things he never did. I think he was living one life in his head and another life in reality.
