Want to buy two shows from Nugs - have been through the set lists from that tour and DAMN!!! Every freaking show is amazing! Ideally I'd like to have them all - but that won't happen right now, so recommend me two shows, your favorites and why. I'll let you know what I end up getting.

    Wasn't in Canada, but we all know Philly 05 was quite lovely

    I was at The Gorge, Montreal, Ottawa, Atlantic City, and Philly.... all of these shows were amazing honestly... I assume you have The Gorge from the boxset so scratch that for your purposes... Montreal was great, and also very special due to it falling on the 1 year anniversary of Johnny Ramones death... Ottawa was a great setlist rumored to be written by Stone... Philly was the blowout finale and is an all-time show in my opinion... but those Borgata shows were unique and flat out amazing... this was a tiny venue in a brand new upscale casino... we will likely never see anything like that again... they must have been paid a ton to do those shows...

    Yep, have that Philly show in FLAC, the Gorge set and the AC with Harvest Moon on it.

    Interesting.  Out of curiosity... were you in GA or back in the seated section?

    Yep, have that Philly show in FLAC, the Gorge set and the AC with Harvest Moon on it.
    Then I would buy Borgata 1 so you have both of the shows, and all of the 2005 USA shows outside of the HOB, which was a widely traded fan boot that im sure you've heard

    Borgata 1 was more intense... you get to hear Principal Vedder calm the crowd down :)

    London. Oceans opener, BRY, HTI,  second encore was pretty kick ass with some pretty funny back and forth with the crowd.  Let Stone sing!

    Winnipeg. It's where Neil Young started playing in bands as a teenager. They played 2 Neil songs and Eddie makes a couple comments throughout the show about how loud and intense the crowd was- even during the warm-up act (Supersuckers).
