    I would say:

    1) Seattle
    2) San Diego
    3) San Francisco
    4) Los Angeles

    Let's not forget the left coast, where Ed debuted his solo show and where some of the more "special" shows of recent years have happened -- Gorge, San Diego I, Hawaii, San Francisco x3, etc.

    If Atlanta was in the top 4, I think it would have had a show either on '06 or '08.

    4) Philly
    I agree on the 06 thing, but I really believe that they weren't allowed to play an 08 show their because it is so close to Roo

    They didn't play here last year :( even though they opened the tour the year before here.

    They gave the first in six years (Astoria) to London :o but Ed in particular has said plenty of stuff about Dublin that would make you think otherwise... so why didn't they play here? :eek:
    The Astoria??? Orgazmic!

If the government becomes a law-breaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy. - Louis Brandeis

    He even said it's great to be in Toronto during the Tampa concert this year because he said he was confused because of the Canadian flag in the arena. Everytime he plays Toronto he talks about how much he loves it here.
