    My friend was going to see Eddie last night. Since he was in Vegas, I gave him 5 Grand to gamble with. I told him I wanted it all to go on Black. Bastard! PhillyCrownOfThorns-11-2-12

    Dublin 2010 had an insanely intense Porch and must rank as one of the best I've heard out of hundreds of versions.

    Athens 06 was the best i saw live...my favorite of all times is by far MTV Unplugged
    "...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".
    "..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."

    Imo the 09/10 Porch versions have been shorter and not as good as the previous years. Porch is a top 5 song of mine and i love the 06 versions the best. East Ruth 2 is amazing and should be heard by all.

    East Rutherford 2 2006 is certainly the best version ive heard in person and is one of my overall favorites; definitely one of the best post 1998 versions. Im also a big fan of Atlanta fox theater 4/3/1994 and Melbourne 3/5/1998 (those are probably the best versions ive heard). Also -St Petersburg 3/29/94 and Flinders Park Tennis Centre, Melbourne, 3/17/95.

    Being there of course made it more special, but whenever Ed goes off on his rant as the music was swelling up, made it magical.
    It's all about the music...

    There are so many, though obviously Atlanta 94 is well up there. Melbourne Park 98 (night 3) is pretty amazing too.

    But one that springs to mind that wouldn't be too familiar to most is Slane Castle 93 - my 1st gig. There aren't any really good recordings of it but it 's insane. The band are frenetic, Ed is absolutely raging and the intensity with which he delivers the lines from Black Flag's "Tearing" is frightening - to say nothing of his howls at the very end.

    Here's a link - cuts between 2 sources:

    THIS. By far! :mrgreen:

    Most amazing solo i have ever heard! soooo great. I compare every Porch solo to this on at every show after it, and they never have lived up to it yet.

    By far this would be Stage College '03 with the mirror shining on the crowd, Eddie walking on the front row guard rail, having security throw him back up on stage followed by the college pep talk....still gives me chills.
