    I've heard them all, ALBANY is by far the best. Seriously, ignore the other messages and go and get Albany.

    Albany where? What date was the show?

    LA II is cool. I like how Ed introduces it: "This is a Lost Dog."

    This one is my pick as well.
    He floated back down 'cause he wanted to share, his key to the locks on the chains he saw everywhere.

    Reading, PA was my favorite. The sound quality of the boot I have is pretty bad though.

    Im surprised that no one votes for the versions from the Gorge in 2005 and also Philly from 2005- I think these are the best versions and the best shows period from that year!
    I hold the pain, release me!

    Okay again... not to be a dick... but Ed completely fucks up the lyrics to this song. How on earth is this the best version of Sad? Come on this is asking about the best version of the song!!! That means like... singing on key a little... getting the words mostly right. Is that asking too much? I don't want a list of "I was at this show so that makes it the best." I want the best version of Sad.

    So far I think I like SF1 and LA2 best. After SF3 of course.

    I was there man...yes and I am sure you weren't...bootleg is not the same experience (you might know that)...and before becoming a dick try to read and understand what I exactly typed here!
    If you want the best version go and find yours but don't ask for advice if you are a cleveregg!
