    So, again, a 1 is a song played once, a 14 is a song played at every show.

    The AVG uniqueness factor of the tour:

    4.929 Hartford
    5.577 Beacon
    5.690 MSG 2
    5.815 Camden2
    5.821 Columbia
    5.962 Mansfield 2
    5.968 DC
    6.000 MSG 1
    6.240 Virginia Beach
    6.280 WPB
    6.500 Camden1
    6.565 Tampa
    6.640 Mansfield 1
    6.885 Bonaroo

    Factoring in total songs played plus shows' songs' uniqueness produced:

    1 Hartford
    2 Beacon
    3 MSG 2
    4 Columbia
    5 Camden2
    6 DC
    6 Mansfield 2
    8 MSG 1
    9 Virginia Beach
    10 WPB
    11 Camden 1
    12 Tampa
    13 Bonaroo
    14 Mansfield 1

    Yep, in the AcuteJam Stat Machine, one extra song moves Columbia over Camden2 and Roo over Mansfield1. ... So that just goes to show that pretty much at every show, a majority of each night's songs where played at a minority of the tour stops! This by no means intends to argue that this is the ranking of best shows, simply how many "unique" songs on avg were played at each show, factored with number of songs played. (and yes, it's slightly off kilter because I factored in Beacon late and didn't wanna update everything, Beacon just might knock-off Hartford if I redo this, but I can't buy that boot any ways so... I'm not redo'n it!)

    Like I'm NOT gonna buy Roo! RIGHT! But this moved DC an Columbia into my list of serious contenders for immediate purchase!

    What blows my mind is that those tunes that were only played once were played so well.
    "there's a lot to be said for nowhere...."

    1996 - Randall's Island II 1998 - MSG I
    2000 - Jones Beach II & III 2003 - Uniondale, MSG I & II
    2006 - E. Ruth I & II 2007 - Lollapalooza
    2008 - MSG I & II, Hartford 2009 - Philly IV

    Stuff White People Like - Statistics
    June 25, 2008 by clander

    Statistics
    By: David Munoz of Panda Force

    White people hate math. If you want to befriend white people, mention “that weird Asian calculus teacher who drew perfect circles” and how much you hated his class (bonus points if you mention how your parents made you get an even worse tutor who was more clueless than you and smelled bad). However, white people are fascinated by “the power of statistics” since the math has already been done for them.

    Some magazines, like TIME, have a section in each magazine that has some interesting statistics ($80 trillion: the amount spent by the US in the Iraqi war) followed by absurd, barely related ones (4,317 yards: the distance covered if you were to take all the ammunition shells fired by US soldiers in Iraq since the war started). White people who read TIME will quote these statistics, but even non-TIME reading white people will throw in stats they read in a less-than-credible study. It’s not unusual to hear such things as “I don’t mind this neighborhood since I’m not Republican. 80% of them are anti-minority, you know” or “I don’t think you should let Sally play softball because 70% of softball players are lesbians”.

    White people love sounding smarter than their peers and will jump at any chance to use a statistic if it’s applicable to the conversation in any way. The more absurd the statistic, the more clever and original you will seem. Stats can also hide negative feelings. If you meet a white person who wishes went to a school that they refer to as the “Harvard of the (Region where the university they attended is), they may say something like “Good thing I didn’t go to an Ivy since 35% of their graduates reported being unhappy with their lives”. It is considered rude to laugh and you should instead smile or throw in another appropriate statistic if handy.

    The only time you should not use a statistic is to ask a white person if they knew “that (random number) % of statistics aren’t true”. You will be seen as being unoriginal, not funny, and will get stared at.

    Disclaimer: 100% of these statistics were made up
    Do you remember Rock & Roll Radio?

    four shows for me, 14 "1's"...not bad.

    and that stat thing...wow. while it doesn't prove if it was the best show, it does prove why everyone was so fired up about that show.

    including this lucky bastard who was there to take it all in!

    what an awesome tour. I could see them every night for the rest of my life. i think its my second favorite thing to do besides climbing.

    I can't believe they didn't play IN MY TREE though. That's one of my favorite songs. I guess you can't really get a much better version than the one on from the Garden in 03.

    As many shows as I didn't see, I had two amazing nights and I know they are gonna play 'til they die. I've been watching them for 10 years and they are better now then they have been since 98. hopefully 10 years from now I'll still be rockin w/ them.
