    Went to three -

    1. Philly 1
    2. Pitt 2
    3. Pitt 1

    Got to experience it all with my son. He got his first show in Philly 1. Then got both our hometown shows (Pitt 1 & 2). Will never forget it, so thankful for it. All were fantastic 
    I went to Philly 1 with my dad. We have been going to concerts since I was young. I can confidently say that Philly 1 was the best concert I have ever been to. The energy in Wells Fargo center that night was unmatched. I’ve seen 70+ bands, and none were able to match that show… the fact I was able to share that show with my dad was incredible

    Did anyone here go to all the shows who can answer this?

    The answer is always Ohana.

    That’s awesome! My first show was Michael Jackson in 88’, the Bad tour. So yes, I’ve seen a ton of shows. But the Philly n1 with my son was something different then the rest. Fantastic show, the atmosphere, songs, ect… And a experience that he and I will always have. Thanks for sharing your story!

    It’s easy drive from NY… I always do it since 2005 for me… wish I did some earlier ones. It’s like the band is afraid to not be exceptional 🤣 Philly people are fun

    Saw 4 Shows this tour , it was supposed to be 7 but London and Berlin were cancelled.

    1 - Barcelona II (amazing setlist , awesome crowd but having a message to my wife and me written by Eddie himself show on the big screen is something we will never forget , it was unforgetable !!)
    2 - Barcelona I
    3 - Lisbon
    4 - Madrid (probably the worse PJ crowd i´ve ever seen, they deserved that lackluster setlist for sure)

    Philly 1 wasn't just the best of the DM tour for me, but easily the single best show I've seen them put on at least since 2016, probably 2013. 

    Honorable mentions: 
    Dublin (crowd energy was off the charts)
    Manchester (Ed's voice was rough, but a great & memorable night all the same) 
    Fenway 1 
    Nashville 1

    100% agree with this.  It was my favorite show since toronto 9/11/11.

    I think this thread proves that msg is overrated and small venues don't necessarily equate to historic shows (florida).  
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......

    Agreed wholeheartedly... the 2 Florida shows don't even crack my top 5... the venue was amazing, and I'm glad I made the trip, but the smaller size didn't make the show by any stretch.
