Newark,MSG 1 or 2? Im leaning towards MSG 2 all great, hunger Strike was just a total curveball...and is it me, but up until last night I thought the Manchester 08 crowd was the loudest I have ever heard during Betterman when the place just went nuts...last night topped that.

    1. MSG2
    2. Newark
    3. MSG1

    Boston was amazing, so MSG2 and Boston could be tied

    It tend to agree- but, just because Newark hit so many of my personal favorites, i still liked it overall better than MSG1. I thought all three shows were strong (MSG1 was awesome as well), and I can totally understand the view that MSG1's energy takes it past Newark-- but if they asked for my dream set list, a good portion of it would have looked like Newark (the other portion looks a lot like Philly3, with Crown of Thorns and Hunger Strike added!)

    In the end, i feel fortunate to have attended all three and I wish i could have gone to Boston. Other than Crown of Thorns, which i was hoping for at MSG, i probably prefer Newark and MSG2, but thats only going by Boston's set list (since i wasnt there). I am looking forward to the Boston boot (so many of my favorite boots are from Boston - im sure the band was on their game). As has been said on other threads- - its all subjective (for some, obviously the Newark crowd diminished the power of the show -- it didnt have that effect on me).

    Agree. Though I thought the sound was better in Newark. At least my seats were. Sec 9 all 3 shows.

    disregarding better man, msg 1's crowd was much better imho. there were a lot more fans jumping around on the floor than msg 2.
