Best Live Performances of Gigaton Songs
After Lightning Bolt, I didn't have a lot of time to listen to the band. But I'm getting way back into the music after listening to Dark Matter. I've also rediscovered Gigaton, liking it a lot more now that I've listened to it again.
Could anyone tell me which live performances of the Gigaton songs are the best? I'm looking to buy some bootlegs from 2021 to 2023, and hoping to get some recommendations.
Thanks in advance!

San Diego (2022) - Retrograde, Never Destination, Seven O'Clock and River Cross were especially good here.
Budapest (2022) - Quick Escape, Superblood Wolfmoon
Quebec (2022) - Buckle Up, Dance of the Clairevoyants, Who Ever Said, Take The Long Way!!!
Not a big fan of Alright, but the version of the Ottawa show in 2022 was good.
Some of the shows had a few more Gigaton songs, but I always mentioned the ones I thought were especially good on it.
To include a bootleg from 2023, as well-
Chicago night 2 was a fantastic set throughout. Seven O'Clock is a standout song here, as well as, rare occurrences of Tremor Christ, Marker in the sand, Come back and Deep.
The three from 2022 were also some of my favourite setlists of the tour, others were great, as well, but perhaps you don't want to buy like 5 or 6 bootlegs, so I consolidated where possible.
I also seem to recall "Alright" was particularly sharp in Glendale (Phoenix) in May 2022.
In general, these songs were great live, so I don't think you can go wrong, although you might want to skip the Oakland and Fresno shows from 2022 which were without Matt Cameron. For that reason, the Gigaton songs were scarce and not at their best at those shows (plus Ed was sick in Fresno).
