Perth 2003 is another good one, I really like both Sydney 1995's too, but the sound isn't as good as the Melb 95 & 98. Let us know which ones you enjoy.

whats your favorite all time australian boot..

I'm very fond of Melbourne 3 2006 myself. Fun boot, nice setlist, good vibes from the band, energetic performance.

was talking to this youtuber, he says he's putting up a full show multicam with official audio of Chile 2015. He's already uploaded half of the concert with singular song vids so I assume when he's uploaded all of them the full concert will come soon after.

Right before we started this tour, I went to the doctor cause certain things didn't feel quite proper... He did a couple little things and put his fingers on my body, not in it... The results came back and he said: "Apparently you have some heavy metal in your bloodstream, and it might've gone into your brain"... I said: "Excuse me doc, I think you got me confused as Mike McCready"... Seriously, he was watching Iron Maiden for an hour and a half before he walked out here... Or Scorpions?... The doctor said: "The only way to get rid of this is to listen to Perry Como, Yanni, and someone named Michael Buble or something"... So, this is more of a pretty song but he's still playing it on a very metal guitar so... ~ Eddie Vedder

My brief impressions of Buenos Aires 2015:

Having adored the first boot from the South America 2015 tour, Santiago, my hopes were high for the next boot, Buenos Aires 2015. Simply put, the BA 15 bootleg is a letdown in my view. I listened to about 11 of the songs. To be specific, the first 4 songs (sloppiest version of Low Light I’ve heard), All Night, Swallowed Whole, Grievance, Immortality, Life Wasted, Red Mosquito, and Indifference. That’s 33% of the bootleg. Out of the 11 songs I listened to, I found essentially all of them to be a very sloppy and weak performance from the entire band. Ed’s vocals did not sound anywhere near as strong, many forgotten lyrics, and the rest of the band had many ropey moments. I know being there in that incredible energy of the BA crowd had to be awesome; no doubt it would have been a blast. However, it doesn’t translate well on this boot. Even the crowd is nowhere near as loud on this recording as they were on the Santiago recording. I’ve read that the BA crowd was louder, so it’s probably the mix. Regardless, I bet it was a great gig to be in person but it’s simply a weak and sloppy bootleg to my ears. Again, it’s merely my observation of the recording.

The worst part was towards the end if I recall, Ed forgot a chunk of the lyrics and the note at the end was very flat. Jeff also had a weird moment in the first verse, like he went to transition too early. Again, it just took me by surprise how different the band sounded from Santiago to BA on boot. Would have loved to have been at both regardless
