Best bootleg circa 2000

thunderDAN

I know there are a million of these so I am sorry. I haven't found a thread about what the best bootleg is of the 2000 tours. What do you think it is? I'm looking for a good setlist, crowd, and one where the band is in top form. Thanks

I have all of them from that tour and I listen to Poland 6-16-2000, West Palm 8-10-2000, Pittsburgh 9-05-2000, and Seattle 11-06-2000 the most.

East Troy, Virginia Beach and all 3 Jones Beach shows.

soundcheck: Wash (by request of those listening outside), Evacuation, Porch, Soldier of Love, Leaving Here
set: Corduroy, Breakerfall, Hail Hail, Animal, Brain of J, Faithfull, Light Years, Untitled, MFC, Habit, Nothing As It Seems, Given To Fly, Spin The Black Circle, Red Mosquito, Black, Insignificance, Grievance, I Got Shit, Wishlist, Do The Evolution, Alive
enc 1: Last Kiss, Better Man, Sleight of Hand, Daughter, Rearviewmirror, Porch
enc 2: Soon Forget, Indifference
notes: The event actually starts a few hours before the concert, with PJ and crew members playing table tennis right outside Tivoli Arena. The crowd is cheering, clearly amused by Ed's entertaining play. At show time, the crowd is great, clearly hungry for PJ who are in Slovenia for the first time. Some crowd surfing, one fight, three girls falling unconscious due to lack of air, but overall none of this drew PJ's attention who are focused on the music. Before 'NAIS,' Ed announced, "... here is a sad song for you ... I guess it's just right after that loss," referring to Slovenia's 1-0 loss to Spain the night before. At the second encore, Ed appears along with something covered by a white cloth, teasing "anyone know what this is? No one?" He uncovers a tambourine and continues, "A friend of ours just graduated from college and it's a big thing for her ... it's a big thing for anybody ... so here is our graduation present for her." He asks the crowd for silence, starts 'Soon Forget,' stops, motions with his finger to his mouth, and continues again, messing up the lyrics in the second verse but the audience loves it. 'Porch' and 'Indifference' make their 2000 tour debut!

Evacuation Rules

Pittsburgh and Saratoga fuckin' SMOKE!

Lots of great picks here, but to me, I also have them all. The one show that really really stands out is the first night in Philadelpia. Sept 1st 2000. The band is on fire.

After philly, in no particular order:

Pittsburgh
Katowice 2
Chicago
Washington DC

Jones Beach 3 is great.
Together all 3 are also a great set to have.
