Best 2-night run? Philly '16?
Anyone else think that the 2 Philly shows this tour among the best 2-night runs they've ever done?. A lot of overlap in the sets but each show was a very solid stand alone with night 2 being in the curtain conversation for best show ever. Night 1 seems to be in the top 20% or so for people who've seen a lot of shows. I was at the MSG run in '03, but this topped it. Maybe if you took Spectrum '09 nights 3 and 4 pretty close competition.

No one has been to every show, and even if one had, ranking in terms of good, better, and best is almost completely subjective.
All shows are great, but of course some are more notable than others.
Nothing wrong with ranking shows/tours. People do it all the time for bands like the Grateful Dead and Phish where there's also a pretty sizeable catalog of unique shows, and there are certain ones that have the rep of being all timers regardless if people saw them live.

Journey Ends:
All that I once held as true
I stand alone without beliefs
The only truth I know is you.
After missing out on tickets for last night, I would not be opposed to bring back the money order process. Hahaha
"Me knowing the truth, I can not concur."
