I was hoping one of my shows (Hartford, the 2 Mansfield shows) would win but this is science project...no homer bias allowed

After checking out all the boots the winner is...













Camden 2...

Brilliant Ed vocals, crowd singing, Matt's drums and Mikey's solo...

Congrats...

Best RVM as well!

LOVE the "All aboard!" intro...!

    I was at both. Camden 2 was absolutely better. The jam was incredible and as good as DC was it just doesn't reach the level of magnificence as Camden 2's version.

    I own 5 boots from this tour and went to 4 shows.

    I very much agree with this statement. Especially RVM.

    out of everything ive heard, tampa kicks ass (great energy in the #3 slot.)

    Why Go in 2008 = best thing ever.

    My Why Go vote goes to West Palm Beach! Most underrated show too!

    as a purest..

    i went back and listened to DC..

    I can see how someone could assess it (Why Go) as best but I'm sticking with Camden 2...

    I have no bias towards either..

    RVM from DC is tight as a 20 year old girls ass but I'll take Camden 2 for the "All aboard!" intro...

    besides.. DC already has top honors for Black, Light years, I'm Open, I am Mine and I got shit...

    in my opinion..

    YES! that was awesome, perfect opener for probably my favorite show that i've attended!
    Wouldn't it be funny if the world ended in 2010, with lots of fire?
