So of the two MSG shows, I'm probably likely only going to one of them. Which one should I attempt to get tickets to, the first or the second?

    Flip a coin. They'll both be great.

    That's exactly what I was going to say.

    Alright. Well I think I have no choice but to go to both shows now. That is if I can get tickets to both shows.

    It's a toss up. I would have always said go for night 2, but the '03 MSG shows proved me wrong on that one...glad I went to both.

    If you can absolutely only go to one show, I would pick night 1.. theres so much anticipation and it will be the first night finally back at MSG. even though night 2s are better in most cases

    I went to MSG 2 in 03, when night 1 was clearly the better show.

    This time, I'm not making that mistake and going to see both shows. :P

    When it comes to big shows like this, try to go to both. I took a chance in 2003 at MSG and even though it was an amazing night for me, the other night was "better". Well, they made a full DVD of the show!
    In 04 Boston the same thing, went to first night, should have done the run. 96 Randall's Island, my night it poured and the set was a little short. 2nd night rocked. I learned my lesson. If they play two nights in one venue that I want to go, I go to both. It has worked for me the last few times.

    After all that, it is a spin on the wheel which one to attend. If I told you it would be the wrong one! Good luck!
    Thank you fellow 10 clubber for saving my ass....again!!!
