    Am I the only 1 who thinks night 1 was a little more amazing than the second show? Don't get me wrong, night 2 also kicked ass.

    Night 1 was a great "collector" show and night 2 great for the casual fans.

    Agreed about night 1, but night 2 was also a collector, considering that they played TEN from front to back.

    So my girlfriend totally caught it live that boom played a bit of "Paint it Black" by the Stones during Crazy Mary (and Mike joined in)... I didn't hear it at the time but heard it upon youtube review... Awesome!

    After listening to both bootlegs, I 100% agree with you. Night 1 was awesome.

    I can't stop listening to In My Tree & LBC, we got such phenomenal versions of those tunes that night.

    Edit: & Save You...... That was f'ing amazing.

    Yeah I have to say I kind of agree. The actual experience of night 2 was much better but the bootlegs are getting pretty equal rotation from me, especially discs 2 and 3.

    Both shows were great. "Which show is better" discussions are generally a matter of opinion / personal experience. So, I don't know which show was more amazing, but I enjoyed Philly N1 more than N2. I've seen a lot of "jambands" that play different setlists every night. I enjoy hearing different songs on back-to-back nights, regardless of the band. I think I would've enjoyed N2 more if Once didn't repeat as opener and there weren't as many Ten songs on N1.

    Don't get me wrong, hearing Ten in full was special and memorable.

    Also, I thought the crowd was more into N1 throughout the show than the crowd on N2. Of course, this could be just where I was sitting.

    In any case, what a great tour!

    I've just listened to the bootlegs for the first time, and for my money night 2 blows away night 1. I wasn't at the shows so this is purely just from a listening standpoint, but night 1 had so many fuck-ups and the band was sloppy.

    Night 2, the band came out like they had something to prove. Opening the show with 'Ten' was excellent, band is tight, Ed sounds great. Overall just a better experience through the headphones.

    I have been listening to Night 1 more even though I thought I loved them almost equally; so I think I have to give Night 1 the edge!

    Had a great time. Thought the set was great and crowd was into the show. Fuckin' Up was great. Once was a lil rough but that is what you get when you see a band that doesn't play the same identical show every night. To me that is part of the true live experience as opposed to bands who do shows that are pretty much just a rehearsal w/ an audience. Can't wait to see them again.

    I can't believe it's been a year already.

    Of the 4 shows I saw last year, this is still the bootleg I reach for first.

    The incredible performances of In My Tree & Save You are a big reason why.
