Agreed. I may be biased, however!

Wasn't this the first time chloe was played?

According to Livefootsteps.org, it was indeed.

At the time I had no idea it was the first time being played.  But it sounded amazing being there and hearing it played.  I just knew I had never heard it live before and I made a mental note that it was one more song crossed of the list. 

Eddie actually said “ we’re gonna  try something we’ve never really tried before”  during the into

Toronto 2011 must be in the pantheon of the legendary shows.

I feel like the boys perform just a bit better with Uncle Neil in the house. They sure did that night.

I’m sure he did.  I’m still standing by my statement that I had no idea it was the first time.

The end of the show with Neil is my all time favorite ending to a show I’ve attended.

It really was incredible.  Still in my top five favorite shows.  7th row on the floor was nice too.

I love the bootleg when he tips it during the first song Long Road....Neil walks the long roooad....
Been to almost 100 shows, top 5 easily.

Long road is my absolute favorite song by them. At the conclusion of the song ed threw his guitar pic into the crowd and it literally landed at my feet.  It was a sign that the night was going to be incredible.

I think I was in the 19th row on the floor.  Great show and great trip up to Toronto.  We left Friday from NJ and stayed that night in Niagara Falls.  We did all the tourist stuff at the falls - boat ride, tour behind the falls, etc. and then drove to Toronto Saturday night.  We went to a Blue Jays/Orioles game the next day, walked around Toronto, hit a brewery, snuck into the Air Canada Center to try and catch the sound check.  Then more sightseeing before coming back to see the show. We woke up the next day and drove back to NJ straight through on Monday.  We definitely crammed a lot into a 4 day trip and had a blast.

Did you catch the same amount of energy up there?

Oh... and I was able to snag a Moose poster at the merch stand inside.

I loved it. It made me the relatively hardcore PJ fan that I am today. However......it was also my first concert experience where I noticed a lot of people texting/taking selfies during a concert. That was a bit disappointing.

Wrigley ‘13 gets my vote for best. This is a must for me to get live.

Me too. 

Saw Chloe Dancer / Crown Of Thorns at both Toronto '11 and Seattle '13 shows. Both were fantastic. Still think their cover in Las Vegas '00 is their best one.
