You have missed out on what is certainly one of the band's best, tightest, and most energetic tours. Tied with 2005 as my favorite tour. Anyways, these are the boots I tend to favor the most based on the following criteria,I usually base them on how tight the band is musically (if many obvious errors are made). Also, how well the setlist flows from song to song. Some songs like Lukin into Betterman don't cut it for me, as they just don't belong together and don't flow well into one another. Two opening songs combos like Long Road into Corduroy flows so well together, whereas Long Road into Evolution is not quite as pleasing. I try to never base a bootleg judgement on whether I like the songs in the set. There honestly isn't a PJ song I dislike. Some songs I favor over others, many of which are actually "hits." I have listened to about 3/4 of the entire tour as well.

Hope that helps some. Those are good places to start and most of these shows are usually recommend by fellow members. Someone will inevitably put Grand Rapids, but despite a cool setlist the show is damn sloppy. :fp:

St.Paul night 2. They opened for Petty so their set is a little short. But still a tight show
i was at this show...it was so fn' good...
what baffles me is how i could drive all the way to St. Paul and only go to this show and not the 1st night :fp: :fp:
Though at least i was able to hit the better of the 2 nights
either way....killler tour...and Petty was on top his game as usual...
I decided to relisten to all of the 2006 boots in order. Started 2 months ago and I finished Gorge I today. So I've got Gorge II to listen too later and then I've done all of the US '06 shows.
My recommendation are:
Grand Rapids
Detroit Boston II
Camden II
Washington DC East Rutherford II
Summerfest II San Diego
Santa Barbara San Francisco II
Portland Gorge I Gorge II
The ones highlighted in bold are my 'gold' shows and the ones not are 'silver' shows.
You also can't go wrong listening to Arnhem, the 5 Italy shows and Newcastle. I'm sure I'll be including more once I've gone through the Europe and Australia shows again.
You can also see my comments on some of the above boots in the bootleg thread

thank you so much for the recommendations! I'm pumped to start collecting these shows. I guess this is my new obsession. I was listening to barcelona 2006 the other day and the band just sounds so freaking good. inside job as an opener is spectacular.
I've heard a lot about zagreb so i'm definitely looking forward tothat one.

not to mention...Eddie speak Greek..come on..
"...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".

"...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".
"..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
“..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”
marseille looks real good....i'm excited to hear fatal live. and any rocking version of porch is a ok in my book. porch is a song i will never skip or never get tired of.....ever. is there such a thing as a bad version of porch?

was 15.000 people in the venue,was packed indeed..the arena was fully packed ,Mike side was hell,all seats full and the coridors,2 people in one seat..a fuckin mess.. i was there too..
the stone side,is where the vip of the venue is,there was no gate opened from that side ,so not that much,cos you need to go around the stadium for get there..full,but not crazy..

I agree, there were at least 15.000 there, it was a dream come true for many of us...unfortunately this will be the one and only time we get to see them live in our country... :(

Boston 1 (It was better than Boston 2) I'm probably the only person that liked Boston 1 more than 2...
