Best Of The Earth Boot

I’ve been on a bootleg binge lately. I’d like to get a show that include a performance of Of The Earth. Any recommendations of a particularly good version of it… or a really great boot that includes it?

    Wrigley 8.22.2016 is pretty good and a good boot all around

    This is the best performance of the song that I've heard!  Mike really nails his solo here!  The other times it's been played mike seems to change his solo quite a bit!

    All of the above!

    I’m also partial to Jacksonville 2016, mostly because I was in GA. But it’s a good performance and a great show!
  • I’ve always been partial to the Werchter version from 2010.

    Third Man is my absolute favourite but not sure how you could access a digital version of it.

    Mike nailed a solo? There’s a dude on this board  that thinks Mike is overrated because he’s not mentioned in guitar magazines as much as others. LOL

    I'm partial to the Denver boot because I was there, but they do mess up coming out of the solo... I think a few guys jump the gun or someone missed it (or both). 

    The 3rd Man recording is pretty damn good to.

    Third Man version is my vote.

    Don't see the appeal of this song. From Dublin forward. That choppy repeating "melody" that lacks "flow", and Eddie screeching like the vocals are too hard to get out with power.

    But I'm basically tonedeaf.

    I am absolutely biased towards the version played at Pemberton 16 :)

    Deluna Fest in Pensacola 2012, great set for a festival. Toes in the sand right next to the Gulf of Mexico. Oceans opener….As the poster above stated, a little bias here as well.

    Third Man is good but the outro is too elongated for my liking. Big fan of the Hyde Park version but I think that's just cos it's the version I've listened to the most as I was there.

    I second that. Pemberton is an amazing sounding boot, not to mention being there didn’t hurt either ;)

    We go back and play that boot so much.  Like more than any other boot.  I went to some amazing shows in that era.  Vancouver/Seattle 2013, and both Wrigley '16 shows, all of which were off the walls amazing.  It's the Pemberton boot I go back and revisit the most.   Sure it was 20 minutes short of 3 hours, thus not as long as other shows from that era, but it was magical.

    Such a beautiful place for a festival.   People make fun of festival shows but the setlist was amazing.   The mix of older PJ fans, and younger festival goers was perfect.   We got see to see PJ melt the brains of the young.   No lineups for merch or getting in, because not many diehards went.  So all the PJ greatness without any of the PJ show hassle :)

    It's why I had to put I was biased in my reply on this thread.  There's no way I can objectively say listen to the one from that show, but it's my personal favourite.    I got it again at one of the Wrigley shows, but the Pemberton one is my favourite :)

    I remember leaving the festival saying to my wife that that was not a typical festival set list. Teenagers who had no idea what they were seeing had smiles on their faces and I overheard heard some saying how awesome they are. There were threats of thunder storms earlier that day, and it turned out to be the perfect evening. 

    All of my PJ merch was purchased 2 days prior, the most stress free environment. I saw Quebec and Ottawa as well, this show was right up there with them.

    it was nice to hear Of The Earth there as it was scratched from the Vancouver ‘13 show.
