2000 Tour question

So I'm going through my 2000 bootlegs and #'s 45 and 46 on my cases say that the shows were in Philly but in the tour section of this website it says that those shows took place in Camden, NJ. Which one is correct and does anyone else have this discrepancy as well? Thanks

    I was confused by that too. I do believe Camden is the correct answer. Maybe Camden is so close to Philly that it's considered to be a suburb? Still not sure why it would say Philadelphia on the boot though. Mine says that as well.

    Ok thanks. I was just looking at the poster and that says Philadelphia too. The whole thing seems a little weird. I was just reading a description of the show on fivehorizons.com and Ed even references "is this Philadelphia or is this New Jersey?" on the 09-02-00 bootleg (haven't listened to it in forever).

    Seems there was some confusion on their part too. Again, it seems weird

    Camden is literally across the River from Philly.

    Awesome. Thanks for the clarification. Geographically I knew they were close it just seems odd with Philly being such a big market on it's own that one, they didn't have any shows on their own, and two, that it was billed for Philly but played in Camden.

    Similar to when they play Mansfield and bill it as Boston I guess but at least they're in the same state

    As above shows took place in Camden, NJ. Philadelphia's largest outdoor venue is the Mann Music Center which holds about 14,000 compared to Camden which is 25,000. The Mann is a much nicer venue in the middle of a park, not like the sketchy area around Camden.
    Last couple tours in the Philadelphia market have been arenas the Wells Fargo Center and the now gone Spectrum.
