Night 1 vs. Night 2

In the past, the 2nd night of a 2 night stand really seemed to be the sought out show...varied setlist, longer set lists, etc. Has this changed? It seems like night 1 in the 2 night stand is the more sought out show in the last 5 years or so.....

    Philly 13. Night 1 was way better than night 2. A lot of factors go in to that.

    I was thinking the same as you were when I put MSG2 as my number 1 priority, thankfully I won it. I figured msg1 would be easier to get later, boy was I wrong. I still don't quite understand, I mean it's a sunday vs a monday. Not like msg 1 is a saturday and 2 a monday or anything. I guess people can do stuff before the show night 1 more easily than night 2 on monday, but still it's a late sunday night show. So i guess it's just the days these fell on. I would assume philly 2 is more popular than philly one since it's a thursday vs a friday, but I haven't been paying as much attention to that since I have tickets to both already.

    Yes! That is my favorite show so far, liked it more than night 2 for sure, even though I had 10c seats night 2 and regular night 1. Shows 11-14 coming up.

    Release, Chloe/Crown and oceans put Night 1 on top for me (but probably just personal preference on the setlist and the fact that I had been waiting for a long time to hear Chloe/Crown and oceans!)

    Id go with MSG2 in both 2008 and 2010. In the end, always best to attend both!

    It's so hard to know. It also depends on the day of the week and other tour dates.
