I'm a bit confused as to why Brooklyn 1 is so overlooked. Oceans, Chloe/Crown, Sleight, Indifference, Sonic are all rarely played. Okay, Chloe/crown was played more this tour than any other, but still. What goes into ranking a setlist? To me, Brooklyn 2 had more sloppy performances. Anyway, to each his own.

Actually I want to change my vote to Vancouver. Mr. Plow wins it.

Charlottesville is the best bootleg I have ever heard, as badass as Phoenix was, Charlottesville was on another level, almost like Fuck It! let's see how much we can raise the bar, it's not the end of the world if the best show was not a show you were at, happy for the fans you got to be there

They are always tight but that nite they were super duper tight. It could be a studio album:)

Philly 1

I voted for Philly 1.

I went to 8 East Coast shows and Seattle, so I guess Philly 1 is out if the shows I went and listened to.

Out of all the setlists I like Vancouver best and I'm pissed I didn't fly out early (I had looked into it - Bah!).

Can't wait to hear Portland, Spokane & Seattle. It'll be fun to relive those amazing shows.

Phoenix all the way !

I see that I can't edit my post from earlier. Lame. I was wrong about Mr. Plow and I know it was Calgary. However, I still vote for Vancouver.

The show just didn't flow. That is why I asked the question earlier if anyone listened to both of them, BK1 & 2. On paper BK1 was superb, but being there it was a different story.

I really want to hear both of them and it might be a different story.

I was at both and felt it flowed nicely. Maybe where I was sitting made a difference, but I still say night 1 wins. I know I'm in the minority though. I would honestly put night 2 overall in the lower group. Don't get me wrong, both were great shows IMO, but aside from All Those Yesterdays, nothing really all that surprising in night 2.

The amount of Charlottesville is shocking. With two of the worst songs in the PJ catalog played back-to-back to open that second set AND Future Days (Fixer 1st set and Big Wave too), where is the appeal? There were basically no rarities played, unless you want to count Jeremy and Footsteps, which we don't get that often anymore. Total # of songs played? Some have mentioned how tight the band was...

I guess we'll have to wait and hear the boot to see if ya'll are crazy or right!

Seattle

Seattle....it's one of those shows that you had to be there for.

I have heard the MP3 10+ times and it gets better each time, and Eddie was in truly rare form all night, and the band was out of sight

Cville was best PJ show Ive been to. And I was at Spectrum shows, PJ20 and Wrigley. All time best show.

Charlottesville

Im pretty sure Cville had the most "only time played on the tour" songs.

Charlottesville

i didnt think Hartford could be topped. Then i heard C'ville. Game over.

Eraserhead

Vancouver

Vancouver is the correct answer.

Other

I am biased to the show that I attended, of course . . . . so I vote "Other": Buffalo. Set list wise it wasn't the best of the tour, but I was there, 2-3 people deep in the pit, so it was phenomenal.

Its chronological- by date of show. Charlottesville has most votes followed by Other and Hartford.

1st time this tour that glorified g, grievance, the end, thumbing, sad, big wave, and little wing were played. The only time for some of those. Those would count as rare appearances in most people's books. That's just straight fact. You can, of course, debate subjective matters like song preference all day long. Such as: I can't fathom someone feeling like Thumbing My Way is one of PJ's worst tunes. But the list of rare songs is basically objective and concrete.

Hartford

Phoenix was my favorite set and I forgot to include it. That's still pissing me off haha. Even though I loved Hetford live and voted for it, I expected Other to beat it out because of that show and a few others.

Voted for Spokane but Phoenix almost got my vote.

Brandon

Spokane

I voted for Spokane. It was the closest I've ever been to the band and the setlist was very diverse with songs that have only been played a handful of times so I know ill be revisiting this show often to hear/re-live them.
