hi . i realise this type of question is mundane & difficult to answer , but here goes (ducks for cover ! )

please could someone advise me of the best show to download from the american leg of the 2006 tour ( aside from gorge which i bought when released ) i am not a serious boot collector person & would like to have just another one show from this leg . i have the newcastle show & pistoia shows covering the aussie & european legs of that tour, both were sent to me & i am more than happy (esp newcastle setlist is amazing !! ) but not heard much about the north american leg .
i would prefer the show to be of intresting set list or something out of the ordinary happening & best sound quality , rather than just "this was the best show cause i were attending it" etc .

many thanks in anticipation . ;)

    I'm prejudice on this, but my vote is Boston 2 (5/25/06). Highlights for me were:

    1. Awesome version of Man Of The Hour.
    2. " version of Even Flow. (Mike Mc Fuckin'Creedy)
    3. " dedication of Smile to a young female fan (had her on stage - "This is Shae everybody".
    4. " version of Yellow Ledbetter with Star Spangled Banner.
    5. " version of Rockin' In The Free World with Red Sox GM Theo Epstein on bass guitar.
    6. " version of Leash, played for first time in 12 years.

    I'm not sure if you're aware...
    None of these shows are available to purchase any more, however, you can find ALL of them here to download, in both FLAC or mp3. Just do a search for 2006 bootlegs.

    That way you could go through every show.

    Honolulu, last show of the tour.

    -oceans opener
    -matts birthday
    -BEST evenflow drum solo ive heard, crazy
    -you are/unemployable back to back
    - AMAZING version of RITFW, ed starts giving shout outs during the song break and after every shout out matt starts doing these crazy drum fills, also has an awesome ending
    -YLB has the most insane Little Wing tag. MUCH better then Gorge's, he actually starts singing the song.

    THe band was on FIRE that night, every songs performance was amazing, even with a few messups.

    i didn't go to any of the 06 shows, but based on the boots I own I strongly recomend , San Diego, Grand Rapids and all of the Italian shows.

    Grand Rapids easily

    Grand Rapids is probably my 2nd fav but I'm telling you the best is 12/2 Honolulu.

    Chicago bias aside, Grand Rapids is amazing. I'm also a big fan of LA 2. Cleveland is a sleeper pick as well.
    He floated back down 'cause he wanted to share, his key to the locks on the chains he saw everywhere.
