    Well, the point I was making was the band takes off songs on the vault releases (soldier Field had six or seven songs left off it and Dead Man was played at the Bellingham show), so I just see some inconsistency with their choice of leaving a disasterous version of an awesome song on the release while other songs are taken off because it doesn't fit the running time of a CD or LP.

    Just to clarify, I'm not complaining, just making an observation. I love go and appreciate the vault releases. :-)

    If anyone is looking for great (recent) versions of Animal (follows Go) I highly recommend Pittsburgh 2013.

    My choice would be the Dublin(?) 2000 version that was remastered by JWB (I think that was his name) to counteract the Europe 2000 bootleg sound issues. Absolutely amazing vox (one of the most aggressive I think from that tour) and a great outro with Ed singing some Crowded House over the rest of the bands wall of sound and guitar feedback.. great version  B)

    Yes, this! That has been my favorite version since I heard it. His bark was strong and the "goodbye" improvs at the end are great with his vocal changes.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    +2 on the Dublin 00 version. That whole show has an edgy feel, as well with Ed diving into the crowd during Black. Underrated boot!

    And it ended the show! Ed also delivered one of his better jokes, and a lengthy one too, during this show.

    I prefer the Pitt version since Eddie sings the entire second chorus (he usually gives it over to the fans).

    All versions of Go pale in comparison to San Diego 11/6/95. I can't believe it hasn't been mentioned yet.

  • Hyde Park 2010, although a shame most of the crowd were dicks that day.

    Someone mentioned Stockholm 2014 - I was at that show and seriously don't remember Go at all!  Will have to listen to the bootleg tonight

    Used the Leeds 2006 version for this. Don't remember why I picked that one though. Maybe because it and Animal followed each other.

    Yes, please do tell. My searches the other day led me to some dead links.

    Is it part of that "Live on THREE Legs" compilation?
