we all have our favorite boots. whether it's the venue, a setlist or even a particular song. i'm sure this has been asked before & i apologize for that but: if you can attend one show that already took place, which would that be?

    4 of my absolute favorite songs all in the same show.

    Release Long Road Hard to Imagine and Go. The first three I doubt have ever all been played in the same show before
  • TO THE NEXT ONE...OR BETTER........... TONIGHT
    "...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.....”

    Do you mean the last two shows were not amazing ? :o
  • Eddie's solo show in Santa Cruz. At the time I had no idea how great Ed's solo shows could be. The night of the show I sadly wandered around the sold out auditorium listening to the crowd having a great time singing along with Ed. Keep in mind the venue is 10 minutes from my house and these days we are lucky to get a decent band or artist to perform here locally.

    I´m not much of regretting shows I chose not to see, I´m just happy about the shows I did see.

    HOWEVER, I had plans for Amsterdam 2 last year but couldn´t get off work. Also we scrapped Berlin 2 in order to get earlier to Stockholm (hadn´t been there before and wanted to do some sightseeing). 2nd night looked better on paper. Both hurt a little....

    But still got to see 5 shows that tour so I´m not complaining!

    Roskilde 2000, Berlin 2006, Athens 2006, Dusseldorf 2007, Copenhagen 2007, New York NY 1 + 2 2008, Berlin 2009, London 2009, London 2010, Berlin 2010, Manchester 2 2012, Berlin 1 2012, Stockholm 2012, Oslo 2012, Copenhagen 2012, Amsterdam 1 + 2 (EV solo) 2012, Amsterdam 1 + 2 2014, Stockholm 2014, Oslo 2014, Leeds 2014, Milton Keynes 2014, Heartland Festival DK (EV solo) 2017, Berlin 2018, Barcelona 2018, Copenhagen 2022, Prague 2022 (Cancelled)

    It's ok to have a little regret. You don't need to preface your response by saying you don't regret much.

    I wish I had been at the famous 6/18/92 show.

    no doubt no regrets at all. it's just one of those -it would've been cool 2 . . . . .. so many great shows --last week in phoenix would've been awesome. what an encore.
