opening set on July 11 2003 in Mansfield MA VS Benaroya Hall

what do you like better?

i love listening to both of these, but for me the July 11 preshow "experiment" set is the best. I know Benaroya has it beat as far as length goes, but the 'of a girl' and 'sleight of hand' on July 11 are AMAZING versions. also, the 11th has 'all those yesterdays' and 'drifting'.

    I was at the Mansfield show.... yeah it was awesome

    wish I'd been at Benaroya....

    wouldn't want to have to pick... though clearly Benaroya is many more songs....

    If I picked Mansfield, it's probably cuz I was there, which is a weak reason...
    Now bring me my beer.

    Interesting... I was listening to Benaroya last nite while I was walking - I love this acoustic show. I'll have to throw the acoustic disc of Mansfield onto the iPod tonite and see how ther verdict comes out. Was at neither of these shows, but wishi I was.

    pretty good reason, i wish i was at that show. i think its probably the most listened to "bootleg" CD i have. i forgot to mention mansfield also has an awesome version of 'sometimes'.
