    Agreed - and have to put Philly 4 and MSG 2 2010 right up there. So many special nights......

    My go-to boot is that of my first show, 2000-10-05 at the Air Canada Centre in Toronto. I can listen to that any time and it takes me back to a place I've long since left behind.

    After that it's a toss-up between 2005-09-11 in Kitchener and 2005-09-16 in Ottawa.

    Den Haag 1992 03 02, my first and still best boot!

    That was my go-to for the longest time. I could probably recite every word of that show.

    Its got everything

    (no i was not there)


    I was :) and it was fantastic show. mark richards setlist was long thought over. he did well.
    And he signed my poster to boot. He really loves the fact that many fans look to this show. he gets reallly chuffed.
    My fav followed by boston 06 acoustic early set and fantastic main show ( and it was a gift from mark as well)
    to add as well Marks fav boot was always Boston as well

    To this day I have never seen more people leave a show with their jaws on the floor. NO-ONE expected night 1 to be "the" night.

    I love that one too. Even with the Shortened Ive got a feeling. Unless I'm thinking of another Den Haag Show - Small Club Bootleg from Corn Paper Music (lol)

    Love threads like this! I want to listen to everyone's fave show...it could be my new favourite. My old standbys include:
    Gorge '05
    Katowice 2
    Vancouver '09
    Honolulu '06
    I usually have to rotate my boots, since my ipod is so small, but these shows usually stay.

    Others: Philly '05, Pistoria '06, Katowice '00

    Boston 3. Hands down, my favorite.

    My favourites are:

    Zurich 18/6/92 (awesome show with imrov's galore and includes Mommason in order with Ed explaining)

    Tivoli 4/3/92 and Milan 17/6/92 (simply amazing early shows - Get them!)

    Melbourne 95 (I think my favourite show from my favourite tour. always go back to this one).

    Hartford 96

    Great Woods 98

    Sydney 18/11/06 (amazing energy with Ed talking most of the night. Listen to the opener better man for an idea of the rest of the show).

    I always go back to a show that I went to, I rarely listen to other boots unless it's for something specific (eg to hear Philly or Lukin II etc).

    The ones I listen to most would be Cardiff 2000 (their only show in Wales, great memories of a really cool vibe that night) or Newcastle 06 because it had such a great setlist

    Its the best!
