    Would either have to be Reading 06 or Bonnaroo 08, Lolla 07 was good, but i would definetly have to say, a step below Bonnaroo. Was chalked full of energy from the get-go though.

    I must agree... considering these sets are fairly short due to it being a festival performance I'm not sure why each set has up to 3 covers when there are so many great songs not being played. The sets have a lot of great singalongs so why not add songs like Animal, In Hiding, Faithful, Smile and Indifference to make them even better. The fans would know them whereas I don't think many would be singing along to Arms Aloft or PIL.

    Has to be both Reading and Leeds 2006. Great setlists with 23 songs in leeds being the shortest of the 2. Also only 2 cover songs over the two shows which everybody knew (baba & rockin'). Compare them with the current festival setlist, which have short first sets and only one encore and the odd rubbish cover song thrown in.

    i can't what's the best, nor do i really want to try to figure it out.....

    however, i've been listening to bonnarooooooooo lately and man, if you've not listened to it, drop a dime and pick up a copy. if you have listened to it, put it back on and crack up the volumu. it is an awesome show. i'm glad i was there, and i'm glad i have the boot.

    is this forum on? can you hear me?

    not only do you have the right, you have the responsibility to listen to this show.
    81 is now off the air

    Reading 06 for me. My favourite ever show, let alone festival show.
    Now it all comes down to numbers, now I'm glad that I have quit
    Folks these days just don't do nothing simple for the love of it
