Vic or Bonnaroo...which setlist is better???

Niko80

Since this is a setlist competition and not a intimacy competition, I will say roo with 100% confidence!

They're both great but the Vic show was longer so that gets my vote.

The Roo...I mean they played WMA for g-d sake!

Roo. I dig the rarities, but I dig the hits as well!

i cuold see the vic being better just because it was an all 10c show and it would have been an awesome environment. roo is my number one though great show.

I'd be tempted to say the Vic, off the top of my head, but the scope of Bonneroo, and the crazy-rare songs on top of this scope, makes it a close contest.

When I started this thread, I couldn't decide myself. But after reading all of these arguments for each side, I have to go with the Vic because of the pre-set and Black Diamond.

All I know for sure is that I'm fucking jealous of anyone who attended either of the shows....and you're scum if you went to both!!

Vic hands down....

no need to explain

not sure about the need to compare the two, but Roo had a great mix of rare and hits. But the big shocker is that they played the hits like they were brand new. insane energy.

i din't attend any of these two great shows but if i'm looking to purchase a boot and saw both of these staring at me i would take roooooooooooo home with me that is if i had to choose .....

I just did I'm very proud of this band .Anyone else go to the silent disco during Kanye? Its was off the hook!!!

i was at roo, so maybe biased...but Roo had something for everyone. It had such a great mix of rarities, hits, covers, rockers, and ballads. Plus, due to the 2 hr greatest hits show that everyone expected it gets extra pints for shock.

I mean when looking at ther setlist, I think its important to look at why a song is particularly special due to who it was played for and where it was played.

Who didnt fully expect a rarities show at the vic??
All night, third song of the night...thats balls

InMyTree4

at roo some camera guy decided to video tape the setlist after they left the stage before the first encore...that kinda killed the suprise of the rest of the show. they changed it up a little bit but basically stayed to that setlist. i wished they never showed it

Yellow Bedwetter

I'm going to say Roo only cuz I was there and cuz I heard 9 songs/26 for the first time in their entirety (W.M.A.) and cuz it was the best show out of 7 I've seen in my whole life. Gonna be hard for the MSGs to beat Roo.

Many of you will never understand the energy that was there. For me, hearing W.M.A. and Release in the same night, and then an EPIC All Along the Watchtower that probably lasted more than 10minutes with the constant (Two Riders Were Approaching chant Ed did)...I'm so happy, glad, fortunate to have seen one of the greatest, if not greatest large-scale PJ show of All Time!!

I was @ the VIC so would have to go w/that vote! lol

yeah but they kind of fucked with us a bunch, I can't remember everything that was on it, but i think they followed the first three songs and then changed it up a bunch

my memory is hazy, does anyone have a pic of the set list they showed

I thought that they just changed the closer- it had YL up there

Everyone that was at roo will say roo, everyone who was not will say vic. Impossible to capture the feeling of those shows, which were both unique. Vic was an intimate night with your favorite band. Roo was your favorite band at the height of their powers showing off for 100,000 people. Vic gave you a warm hug from a friend. Roo gave you the show-off-cocky "see, i told you so..." feeling to the non jammers, coupled with the rarities and debuts that fuel the fire of a PJ fan.

yeah I remember alive being out of order, I only got a quick glimpse of the shot of the list

I could have sworn I saw indifference up there too and completely didn't notice watch, but someone said it was there.
