    2016 for me. No album to push and better overall sets than 2013/14 and with two great runs for the ballpark shows.

    the two '14 shows I saw were good although it's also when I really noticed (or accepted) the shift from band to business.

    14 the best for me with the Milton Keynes show, though effectively 13 and 14 is the same tour just the US and Euro legs

    2014; the shows I saw (Milan, Leeds, MK) were all epic. Plus, the other amazing shows like Vienna and Detroit, and the buzz of Moline and Milwaukee etc made it a great year.

    The older the PJ, the better. Also 09-10 was the height of their powers in my opinion.

    Let’s hope Eddie can still sing and these shows don’t turn into straight sing-a-long fests.


    2016 was the best in terms of setlist variation.

    Same reason for me and the 4 Florida shows to open were amazing as well as the 2 Fenway shows to end my touring w them.

    2013 is really close too because we had Wrigley.  That holds a lot of weight for me.
