For me its Gorge 06 night one. Incredible boot. Great overall show, easily the best version of Daughter I've heard, great drum solo during even flow (although I think night 2's drum solo was better) and probably the best set list I've ever seen from them. Even though one of Mike's friends wrote the setlist.

Oh and theres just something about knowing its at the gorge that makes listening to it that much better.

EDIT: D'oh! How can I forget DIRTY FRANK? (with RITFW AND Baba during encore 2)

Whats your boot that gets played the most?

    6/25/08, 5/20/10, 5/21/10... love those MSG shows. I've got the boot from the "Live at the Garden DVD" too... that one gets a lot of play. Lately I've been listening to the 9/07/11 and 9/11/11 boots a whole lot.

    Also love that Gorge set. :D

    06/16/2000 Katowice II. This show starts slow and just ever so slightly builds until it breaks, with some of my favourite songs and performances. I could listen to this bootleg every day and not get sick of it. Huge Binaural fan and this tour just does it for me; the shows/boots are incredible. A very dark/deep/heavy time in PJ and it shows in the music/performances. If only I had gotten into seeing them live for this tour (first show was Montreal '03).

    Not my favourite, but always found Virginia Beach 00 (first gig after Roskilde) very touching, and it has the best version of Daughter/(It's OK).

    The first boot I got is one of my favourites, Gorge Septermber 1st 2005. In fact I love the entire Gorge Box Set, used it to drive the ex crazy, she hated Pearl Jam and we played I pick an album, then you pick one...we never got to her's and wouldn't have unless we drove from Vancouver to Calgary.

    More recently its been the 09/25/11 Vancouver show, maybe a sentimental thing but it was a killer set. They killed Chole Dancer, much much much better than the TO version...just my opinion.

    Also I love the Lollapoloza 2007 boot. Its short yet powerful. Love it!

    6/22/08 Washington DC -- Disc 2

    Comatose; Sad; Given To Fly; Come Back; Grievance; Black; Rearviewmirror; No More; Last Kiss; Crazy Mary; Alive; All Along The Watchtower; Yellow Ledbetter

    Got it for the Watchtower, love Sad, GTF, Comeback sequence -- nice Black and RVM, always skip No More as Eddie does now as well, solid final four...

    Always go back to it ... because it's stuck in the minivan's in dash factory CD player and they wanted $300 to fix it. Have poked around with a knife a couple of times to try and pry it out, but no luck. Eh, coulda been a Marvin Gaye or Taylor Swift CD that got stuck, so small blessings and what not....

    We play CDs on the DVD player now for the most part but I still crank it up at least once a week -- someone from Ted Leo joins in on Watchtower, pretty gnarly.

    I def agree with you on this era of PJ. glad I got to see one show at Jones Beach.

    but what do you (or you guys) like about this Katowice II show? I've listened to it twice on headphones (and maybe that is not enough), but I find it to be very forgetful. The banter is not that memorable, the crowd (with the exception of that one time where they chant) isn't that memorable, and the performances aren't that memorable. to me that is. My opinion his one is maybe overrated?

    anyway mine would be Gorge 06. Sound is top notch. Great opening music before they hit the stage, great opener, perhaps the best version of Garden, you got Rats, Wasted Reprise, Save it For Later tag, actual full Little Wing, Petty cover, Star spangled Banner at end of YLB, great banter from Ed. Just an overall package

    I was there and yes. :thumbup:

    Edit***

    LA4 09 and Buffalo 2010. My ticket buddy for Buffalo was the guy that handed Eddie his sneaker and Eddie then drank wine (gatorade) out of. Well not really but he made it look that way. The version of Betterman that night was f'in amazing!!!! Damn, I may switch my vote. :lol:

    Halifax '05. Cause I still can't believe Pearl Jam ever played here in my small town.

    Other greats would be Newcastle '92, Zurich '92, Salt Lake City '95, Melbourne '95 & '98, Berlin '96, Philly '09 Night 3 etc..
