    All very nice, except the family vibe. I'm not into that. I like for a rock concert to be grown-up time - teens and older. Little kids at a rock concert just doesn't sit well with me (not that I'm not gracious when it happens.... but inside I'm annoyed).

    THIS ^^^^^^^^leave the kids at home .....
    98 was the best yr of shows ever imho ....

    I had to put the Denver 2014 show over my Phoenix 1998 show for a performance, but would have to agree the 1998 tour overall would be considered slightly better than the LB tours of 2013/2014. 2013/2014 tour is a close second in my mind though.

    We got Wrigley, 3 hour shows, some rarely played tunes (think Let me Sleep), Yield and No Code played in it's entirety, Euro tours, sticker wars. Man it's been a fun two years!

    Don't forget the elitist lists! =))

    Agreed, such a fantastic tour. The bands spirits were high, terrific setlists, great crowds, unique moments. Also the new songs translate well live and really added to the show instead of take away (maaaybe minus if you've been to a ton of shows and have had Pendulum open most :) )
