Seemed like both London shows were great. Frankfurt and Budapest, maybe Berlin? Or was that the one Dimi said had some technical issues? I can't remember.
From the US leg both LA shows are good, both Oakland shows are interesting, Fresno is cool because of Krusen.

If one - I would buy the one where Dave Krusen plays Ten with the boys. Or some of the ones with several drummes. Because of the difference in sound and vibe.
"Mostly I think that people react sensitively because they know you’ve got a point"
depends. If you love Gigaton as much as I do then it would have to be San Diego. Has 8 Gigaton songs and they all sound great. Throw in a great rare Oceans opener, a mid-set Long Road, Amongst the Waves and Lightning Bolt represent some post 2000 songs, and ends with the reverse Mamasan trilogy that make for a fantastic show. The classic "hits" all sound great as well. Ed does talk a whole lot during the show (more than usual) but other than the Bill Murray part it's not that bad.

Frankfurt and Budapest have the best setlists from the euro tour IMO.. sounds like they were on fire in Budapest and I can personally confirm that the Frankfurt performance was ace! Frankfurt has the best selection of Gigaton songs from the euro tour IMO, with 3 of the lesser played ones making an appearance (Never Destination, Buckle Up and River Cross)

I buy bootlegs mainly to listen to when I go hiking. So far this year I bought SD, LA1 and LA2. I found myself fast forwarding each to the one or two different songs. Otherwise they are the same boots. So, I have been going back in time to find more diverse boots from years gone by. So I suggest waiting for the tour to be over and pick a couple. This will save you money as you for the most part as they are all the same. I have been praying before this tour is over we get a crazy set so I can add to my three already purchased.
I buy what I went to personally. From US Leg 1 I would lean to LA2 or Phx as the only real candidates based on sets imo. the Krusen boot if that appeals to you.
Euro: Hyde park 1, Frankfurt, budapest are candidates imo. Those 3 shows started to really shine PJ set flexibility. Guessing krakow so close to Ukraine will be powerful. The Amsterdam shows are always usually great
Definitely looks like Frankfurt and the two UK gigs will be my go tos so far. Nothing from US Leg 1 really sticks out to me other than the novelty of hearing them with different drummers (and SD for most of the Gigaton stuff)

I’m inclined to wait until the end of the second US leg and then make a decision. Could be a few surprises in store at any upcoming show and I might wait before pulling the trigger! Im leaning toward Zurich at this stage, because I personally love that setlist. Frankfurt would be next in line if I buy more than one 😉 but there’s still quite a few shows to go so who knows!?
Hyde Park 1 was a pretty mind blowing show for me musically. I was on such a high after the show. Walked around London the rest of the night with a smile on my face😊.
Especially loved Quick Escape.
Would fall into my top 3 of the 18 shows I’ve seen on 4 continents and in 10 cities over 16 years.
