Don't underestimate the Hartford show. I think you could very well see a Grand Rapids '06-type setlist at this show, not in length but in terms of gems not played in some time.
I am also of the thought Hartford will be a sleeper show - like Calgary '05 - based on location alone (after MSG and before Boston) you don't think it will be the greatest, but I have a theory on this particular show...
East Troy '00 was very cold = short set. The return to East Troy '03 = great show.
Albany '03 was the 2nd of a 3 night string. Ed was sick. The set was very short, by their standards. The return to Albany in '06 = great show.
Hartford '06 not as cold as East Troy '00, but cold and ugly enough for Ed to mention it. Short set. Return in '08 = ?
