    I think Boston 06 and DC 06 are both better. Atlanta 94 is better too. And I like Bonnaroo as well.

    Pouring down rain. Front row. Ed sings the bit "oh dear dad, can you see us now" and right after that a huge flash of lighting in the sky. Chills. Ed says, "hi dad" and just fucking belts out the next lines with more heart and feeling than I've ever heard. New definition of chills. Go listen to it right now!

    I agree.

    Also, I was moved to tears when I heard "Release" after "No More" on the Bonarroo boot. I would have loved to witness that in person...minus the crowd. ;)

    San Fran 7/18/06 is a great version.

    The Bonnaroo version just popped up on my iPod and I'm liking that one more and more every time I hear it.

    definetly chicago 'o3. this was the first song i ever heard them play in person and the raw emotion in eddie's voice gave me the chills (made even more impressive by the fact that that he was fighting off a cold). the band were all in perfect communication and the crowd was loving every second. probably one of the most unforgettable moments of my young life
