It's really normal for bands to play deeper cuts or new songs, even famous ones

Mark just needs to get over his “90 minute ideal set list” idea. Add 20-30 extra minutes of deep cuts and new songs combined with the current set list and it’ll be pretty perfect.

I don't think his voice would hold up.

Possibly. But let’s just say add 6 more songs, 3 Mark and 3 Matt, have a second encore and a bit of a banter and then you’ve got that 30 or so minutes. I’m sure he could handle that.

Billie Joe Armstrong can handle it and he and Mark are the same age.

The difference is Billie Joe takes care of his voice and trains it. Mark, as far as I can tell, doesn't.

Do they not already already? 

Only on Darkside, they go down a semitone to Eb. They used to, pre break up/backing tracks play Adam’s Song a semitone down from the album too. 
 

Like Davey said they need to play a majority of the set down a semi tone. Leave some songs like I Miss You in standard tuning cause Mark couldn’t sing it comfortably any lower.

Playing longer than 70 minutes should not be a thing.

Then they will have to re-record their "backing tracks".

Not necessarily, there are plugins in pro tools or whatever DAW that allow for both pitch and time adjustment without changing the tonality/quality. I’m pretty sure that’s what they did with the Darkside backing track that has the down tuned guitar/backing vocals. With that plugin they could also do what Chris Holmes talked about on Ry’s podcast (he mentioned live 155 by +44 might be 160bpm some nights if they felt like they wanted the extra energy, he was their live backing track guy on tour). 
 

all in all would love for them to tune down a half step and speed everything up 5bpm, that way they can still play to tracks and their sync’d programmed light show just with a little more speed and less vocal fatigue

Didn't Mark once say that people don't come out to hear deep cuts, when talking about playing online songs? Like...what

Give me Apple Shampoo over First Date  every day of the week, mind you that would be pretty hard on his voice too. Or more acoustic mini sets, they were fucking amazing and always work to their voices
