Werchter 2010 or Venice 2010?

edited November 2011 in Given To Fly (live)
So I just got my bootleg code and I am trying to decide which show to get. My only interest is in getting a show with both Arms Aloft and Public Image on the setlist (and honestly, my only concern is how good each version is). Any advice between these two? I know Arms Aloft from Werchter and Public Image from Venice both ended up on LOTL. I tried going through the actual threads from each show on here, but they both seem to be more reactions to the setlists than actual reviews of the shows in general. It seems like Venice might have been the better show, though Werchter has Of The Earth on the setlist (which is cool I guess), so...

Any opinions? It's greatly appreciated.

:-)

    Venezia! Dimi knows this, and I can support it :)

    well, i was at the Werchter show and have to say that i definitely like the set list of that show. plus Dave Grohl and Alain Johannes (from Them Crooked Vultures) joined PJ on stage for a great version of Kick Out The Jams. only downpoint is that the show is rather short.

    as to the Venice show, i have not been there, but from what i gather from the set list i am planning on getting this one as well.

    as to the crowd response and general ambiance at both shows, you would probably have to go with Dimitris' suggestion, which clearly favours the Venice boot. ..

    True, i was in Werchter, not the best show to say the least. The band looked tired (i think it was after the london show, which was amazing), the crowd was not into it and the setlist was a little bit dull

    Good versions. The crowd was a little bit disconnected, don't know. I think the band tried Do the Evolution early on and the crowd was like mehhh. It was the last day of the festival (out of 4), with 40Cº each day so you could feel that everybody was a little bit tired. Short setlist too. I prefer the Berlin and London shows.
