    from an unbiased perspective, i wasnt at either show, the vic blows bonnarooo out of the water, still. They opened with fucking all or none, end thread.
    {if (work != 0) {
    work = work + 1;
    sleep = sleep - work * 10;}
    else if (work >= 0) {
    reality.equals(false);
    work = work +1;
    }system("pause");
    return 0;}

    i wasn't at either and i say bonaroo..

    very close, but with the high rarety demand, bonaroo is blowing my mind. and the short clip of the re-arranged wma sounds amazing as shit ... also playing release during an encore .. that would be the ultimate holy shit no way .. the whole crowd must have been so united .. and then boom, right after it they play alive. perfect. hard to imagine opening is fantastic .. down .. WHO YOU ARE .. i'm in awe.


    the vic was amazing because it was all 10c, had in hiding, all or non opener which is insane, education, gods dice, and so on .. but i still think bonaroo wins

    I think this is a dumb question...Vic HANDS DOWN. Roo was sweet, but the Vic was amazing.

    if you put release in the middle of a set, play WMA in its entirety open with hard to imagine and blow out half full, it wins

    i was at the Vic, and had i gone to the Roo i definitely would have enjoyed the setlist (although not the logistics) and i feel BOTH shows will be talked about for YEARS and for good reason! realistically though, you can't compare the 2 shows - both were AMAZING shows for different reasons and on different levels :)

    I agree, both were special in their own way, sure the opened with All or none at vic, but at roo, they open with hard to imagine? And release played as an encore? Awesome.

    someone else had a good point about bonaroo on another thread, put both setlists aside for now and think of this: The vic was only 1000 ppl. Bonaroo was 100,000 ppl. Both setlists are GREAT , but there has to be something to be said for the intimacy at the vic and not having to have to push your way to the front or give some dude an iron claw because hes too drunk to know where hes walking. Plus, I DO want to hear the music and not have to watch them play on a jumbotron.

    For it being a 10c show, Ed was pretty pissed and he doesnt ever get THAT pissed at shows. He didnt have to yell at the crowd at bonnaroo to stop taking pictures. Bonnaroo wins! And the setlist was way better!!! :D

    to clarify, at the Vic (from my personal experience, i think many would agree): Ed annoyed by the flashes? yes. pissed and "yelling" at the crowd? um, no. :)

    i'd base Ed getting pissed and yelling at a crowd as observed at Mansfield/'98 during the "quarter" rant as the "baseline" for comparison purposes hehe

    I was not at either show

    but after looking at the setlists, I'd say "roo"

    Why: because when I saw the Vic setlist I was a tad dissapointed. Reason is that it was a 10c exclusive show. I think I expected more from it Like playing all the shit that everyone bitches about never seeing on this site. The vic crowd was nothing but die hard PJ fans so I was thinking they'd play stuff like: all those yesturdays, faithful, who you are, in my tree, fatal, masters of war, smile, etc.

    I'm not saying the vic setlist was bad, not at all

    I'm just saying that the roo is a festival... the vast majority of the crowd is not PJ diehards but a mix of casual fans, people who are just seeing them because they're already at the show, and people who even hate their music...

    So, for PJ to come out and play the shit they did in front of all those people not knowing how the crowd would respond... Now that just takes balls! This just further cements them as the greatest rock band of my generation in my eyes.

    You gotta remember, alot of people will say Bonnaroo because they got shutout for Vic tickets. I was at the Vic and was not at Bonnaroo. With that said I would have givin' my left and my right nut for Vic tickets and to compare The Vic to Bonnaroo is one of the most asinine things I've ever seen on the board. However the thread isn't saying which show would you rather of attended. It's a setlist question. Bonnaroo's setlist is better, that's an easy question. But setlist or not nobody here can say they would rather have been at ROO over The Vic.
