    I'm going to have to give the edge to Greenville over Columbia but not by much. Two completely different shows with the fast opener/chill opener. Tough to match the crowd energy during Vs in full. Some great rarities that made the show for me in Columbia though(Light Years/I Got Shit/Chloe Dancer/Crown of Thorns/Footsteps. Can't fucking wait til next time.

    I went to the Lexington show. Amazing setlist, amazing crowd, and the band was in the best spirits that I have seen them in, in forever. But man, nothing will match the feeling of Greenville and getting VS. Was just so special to have been there and witness that. Still in awe.

    I went to both Greenville and Lexington, and I'll agree.

    For me, personally, Lexington was pretty incredible getting Deep (1st time since my first show - Soldier Field '95) and Satan's Bed (white whale) back to back so early in the main set. I nearly lost a full beer when the latter began. And the energy, and tightness of the band throughout made this a standout show for me.

    However, Greenville edges it out. Just barely. Mainly because of the crowd and the vibe that entire day. Getting Vs. is what lifts it into that special category of shows. But I was in Milwaukee for Yield too and I'd say Greenville topped it. Both encores in Greenville were great. I love that they're covering Comfortably Numb. And getting Breath is always a special treat (if Eddie remembers the lyrics.) Having it being a Saturday and the band having 2 days off before, no doubt, helped too. Both band and crowd were revved up from the start. You know you're in for something when both Jeff, and Stone are jumping from the get-go. Personally, being at the pre-party enhanced the experience too. The anticipation was off the hook. I had a good time at HopCats in Lexington but the Ale House in Greenville was 10x the better host for that.

    I wish! Hopefully they will release the boot after the Fla. shows. Wanted to record but was carried away and didn't want to mess with phone or camera. trying to be patient....

    Had the pleasure of listening to the whole show on a road trip Houston to Dallas Saturday morning. Great listen. Will never forget the crowd energy that night during Vs.

    Finally just got the bootleg and starting to listen. Sounds much better in bootleg form than side of the stage :) Such a great show!

    I am addicted to this boot. If it wasn't for meeting my wife at PJ20, Greenville would without a doubt be the greatest PJ concert experience of my life.
