    Black wasn't played in Hartford.

    I saw Black in DC and Mansfield I, and I'd have to go with DC by far out of those two.

    I have listened to all the boots..

    Yes, all of them (obsessed with boots much..?)

    I am putting together a "best of" mix for this tour..

    and the winner is??????















    Washington DC ..

    not even close.. (no, I was not there)

    great vocals (Eddie holds the "All I'll beeeeee" line)
    Great Mikey solo.. whole band is cooking..

    BTW.. the very next song on the boot "Rearviewmirror" wins as well...crisp and bouncing..!

    not big fan of the rest of this boot (mostly because Eddie forgets lots of lyrics..even th opener "Hard to Imagine") but these two songs are "best of" the whole tour..

    If you were there..take a bow!

    I actually think RVM from Camden II is the best of the tour. I was there, but i also own 4 other bootlegs. It was the best RVM on the tour in my opinion.

    Won't let the light escape from me.
    Won't let the darkness swallow me.

    lotta talk of the quality of this show on the boot, BUT whats hartford like?


    This version of "Porch", "Garden", "Betterman", "Evenflow" and "Why Go",
    actually - the whole thing is just fucking sick. It's going to force me to spend thousands on a new sound system!
    Any suggestions on equipment/brands?

    There is no such thing as a good version of black. The song blows.

    ^ That would be incorrect, sir. You may, the song does not.

    DC was the best (I heard)!
