i tried. the show experience itself certainly plays a factor in several of these - i don't think i'd list the philly halloween or pj20 shows, for example, as high if we were just considering performance. the bonnaroo show still makes me smile whenever i think about it; it will take a pretty exceptional show and experience to top that one.

Favorite Show I've been to

Post by Django Butterworth »

6-12-2003- KC (I'm sure the rain and atmosphere helps this memory a lot, as well as I happened to be getting beer at the back of the amplitheater during release so I got to see the fucking amazing lightning during that song)

I wonder how fast that show would have been suspended if it happened today?

I'm not as well seasoned as I'm sure a lot of you are but...

The list of shows I've been to:
5-3-92 Omaha
7-3-98 KC
10-12-2000 KC
6-12-2003- KC
6-13-2003- CB
5-3-2010- KC
9-3-2011- AV
9-4-2011- AV
7-19-2013- Wrigley

I was at that 7/3/98 show, too. The Shoreline Amphitheater kinda sucks for sound if you're in the lawn, and the crowd was stupid... tearing up chairs, barricades, and railings to the point that the band had to change to some slower songs at one point and lecture the fine KC idiots :shake:

I was also there. But way too drunk and stoned to fully remember. hell, I may have even been guilty of some chair destruction. I was up front somewhere. It was the show where I finally decided not to get so fucked up at concerts.

Man I don't remember any of that.

I remember it being hotter than the devil's asshole though.

Towards the top of my list is the 2003-06-06 Las Vegas show. The crowd was really randy and not into EV's anti-Republican speech which actually made for a fun night.
Great setlist too, except for Know Your Rights. I have grown to hate that song because of Pearl Jam.

SET 1
Go
Save You
Spin The Black Circle
Last Exit
Even Flow
I Believe In Miracles
Interstellar Overdrive
Corduroy
Better Man
You Are
Grievance
Wishlist
Green Disease
Daughter
Present Tense
Lukin
State Of Love And Trust
Porch
ENCORE 1
Last Kiss
Love Boat Captain
Down
Breath
Do The Evolution


ENCORE 2
You've Got To Hide Your Love Away
Crazy Mary
Know Your Rights
Fuckin' Up
Rockin' In The Free World

Indeed. However, I was at State College, and that marathon "only" had 6.

I came in during last exit I think, couldn't make my way in there in time. Then I went to get an overpriced miller lite or some shit during even flow, which, of course. Interstellar overdrive comes on after even flow, and I got so amped up because it was almost like they were starting over because I finally got there. Which, obviously no, but it felt like I didn't miss the opening.

Hearing the show now, I wish I had got in there for the first few songs, that looks like fun.
