    I heard most of the 10/6/09 mp3 last night and the quality is good. I thought Stone may have been just a tad low on some songs, but that's my only real complaint about the mixing.

    I just finished listening to LA 3 & 4!
    They are both amazing, hard to pick one over the other...lots of energy.
    I guess if I HAD to choose... it would be LA 4. Aside from the obvious gems in the setlist, I noticed that there is a very powerful and energetic version of "State of Love and Trust", which I seemed to be kinda slowed down and sloppy in previous bootlegs.

    Blows away Seattle 9/21.
    Why is ACL the best bootleg? (I did hear that show ROCKED!)
    Is it the recording, the performance, the setlist...
    all of the above?
    Any others have opinions on ACL vs LA 1,2,3 & 4?

    The reaction for Chris Cornell on LA 3 boot was unbelievable, you really caught the energy during that song.

    I also felt look you could hear the strings better on the boot than live at the show, especially during Lukin.

    My vote goes to Toronto. I have told several friends to buy the bootleg and if they don't like it I'll reimburse them. The whole show was great. Mike was on fire, Stone brough the house down on Rockin in the Free World. This was, perhaps, the best concert I have ever seen. Even now when I listen to it I keep thinking - Holy S%!#&t I was there!!!

    I have a special spot for Chicago #1 because Ed does The Needle and The Damage Done - which is a terrific song.

    Bottom line - they are all great. As someone noted the ones we attended will most likely get more of our votes but I love them all.

    I was @ Chicago I...haven't heard the bootleg, but I imagine it's great. The band was in great form that night. Energy through the roof, and a great setlist.

    It's worth buying Austin just for Matt's drum sound alone!

    The best bootlegs are the ones you went to, right?? Well, it's that way for me at least. :) They are all great shows in my opinion. When you listen to the bootlegs of shows you went to it brings back all those memories and give me goosebumps. When I play shows I wasn't at, they just don't have the same feel. So Philly 27th and 28th are gonna be the best. :D
