Antwerp or Barcelona?

I want to buy one of these shows because I am a big fan of Wolfmother, and I want to have a copy of Andrew singing Hunger Strike and Baba with the boys. For those of you who have heard both of these boots, which one do you recommend, especially considering the quality of the songs with Andrew?

As for people who rip Wolfmother and/or think Andrew sucked, although I respect your opinions, I'm not really interested in hearing from you in this particular thread. I'm more interested in people who thought Andrew did a decent job and about which boot they would recommend. Thanks!

    I'm also a wolfmother fan, I'm not too impressed with the hungerstrike versions, but the Barcelona version is definetely much better, I think the Antwerp version sucks not due to Andy not able to sing the song but more to his nervs I think. In Barcelona Andy begins with the singing, in Antwerp Eddie starts the song. Get the Barcelona version!!!

    I was at the Antwerp show, have only heard the Barcelona version, and I would have to agree with some of the people here and say that Barcelona is the best of the two. You have to remember that Andrew only had few hours before going on stage in Antwerp to learn the song, so it makes sense if he did a better job the second time around...

    Thanks for all your posts. I have now heard both versions of Hunger Strike and agree that Barcelona is much better. Andrew sounds much better on that one.

    Antwerp - Wolfmother guy wasted: Hunger Strike = shit
    Barcelona - Wolfmother guy not wasted: Hunger Strike = not too shabby

    Therefore, if you are baing your purchase around Stockdale's performance, get Barcelona.
