Again, no order, just my two cents.

Here's an "updated" list, minus Immortality since we have some differing opinions

[E.H. Ruddock]

Alright along with lowlight we have a solid list together. I'll give it through the weekend for any suggestions or arguments to be settled regarding versions of songs. I do want Immortality on there, but need people to vote on it, since we've had a couple suggestions.

[ridleybradout]

As a side note to whoever creates the track listing, it may be a good idea to lay it out in the way Mansfield 03, Gorge 05, Santa Barbara 06 were done. Release, Oceans, Of the Girl, Thumbing My Way, Off He Goes, NAIS, Can't Keep, Footsteps, Immortality, Thin Air, All or None, etc. can all be used to make a nice little opening setlist.

I like this idea - starting with a predominantly 'down' disc and then a predominantly 'up' disc.

Here is a quick suggestion for the sequencing folks to consider. Track suggestions not on the list above in bold. Probably won't fit all on 80 min discs so some culling necessary.

DISC 1:
Oceans - Osaka
Of The Girl - Sendai
Thin Air - Osaka
Off He Goes - Osaka
Love Boat Captain - Sendai (up there with the best 03 versions)
I Am Mine - Osaka
Cropduster - Yokohoma
Immortality Improv - Nagoya
Immortality - Nagoya
Can't Keep - Tokyo (probably the definitive version)
GTF - Nagoya
NAIS - Sendai
Wishlist - Osaka
1/2 Full - Sendai
Light Years - Nagoya
All Or None - Osaka (a few lyrical flubs, but a solid first attempt that suits this disc)
You Are - Yokohoma
Don't Be Shy - Tokyo
Last Kiss - Osaka (unique solo version should get a guernsey IMO)
Black - Sendai
Footsteps - Nagoya
Smile - Osaka
Indifference - Yokohoma

DISC 2:
Release - Tokyo
Hail, Hail - Tokyo
Grievance - Yokohoma
Whipping - Yokohoma
Corduroy - Sendai
Faithfull - Osaka
Ghost - Osaka
I Got Id - Yokohoma
Insignificance - Nagoya
Go - Yokohoma
Brain of J - Nagoya
SOLAT - Yokohoma
DTE - Tokyo
RVM - Sendai
Rival - Yokohoma
Lukin - Tokyo
Not For You - Tokyo
Blood - Tokyo
Porch - Osaka
Save You - Osaka
Alive - Tokyo

I'm going to listen to these shows next week; I dunno if I've ever listened to them all the way through, except for Tokyo. I think it was Sendai with the really tiny crowd people were discussing earlier in the thread (if 5H is to be believed).

[numbers]

Dont Be Shy is so good on the Tokyo boot.

[Simple Torture]

Someone stole the Tokyo boot from me in college

[WtOB?]

Immortality NEEDS to be the Nagoya version and NEEDS to include the improv.

[dsb1218]

Yes please, someone make a comp for us! Thanks in advance.

I haven't heard much from these shows outside of a song here or there from a comp of live Binaural tracks. Really looking forward to seeing what y'all put together. Thanks in advance.

[mkay0]

Holy shit, this solo Last Kiss is giving me chills.

[super nintendo chalmers]

I really liked how that one comp closed with Release. It was different. But yeah, a disc or two from this leg would well totally worth it.

We are hammering out small details on the list, hopefully will have something soon for this.

I just noticed that Know Your Rights is not on the list. If it's not too late, I vote for it to make the compilation. There was a great version played in Tokyo.

[Wendy Carlos's Twin]

Here's a list of versions I've earmarked for the set.

SENDAI: 1/2 Full, NAIS, LBC, You Are, Grievance, Black, RVM, Soon Forget
YOKOHAMA: Whipping, I Got Shit, Corduroy, Down, Jeremy, Indifference
TOKYO: Release>Can't Keep, Lukin>Not For You, Dissident, Blood, Don't Be Shy, Alive
OSAKA: Off He Goes, Last Kiss, Smile, Porch>Save You, Go, Thin Air, Faithful, Once, Breakerfall
NAGOYA: Improv>Immortality, Footsteps, Brain Of J

I'm still investigating these songs, mainly because I don't feel like listening to them:

I Am Mine, Wishlist, GTF, Insignificance, Small Town, Betterman, Daughter, Evenflow, Bu$hleaguer, DTE

And I'm thinking about making spliced "hybrid" versions of Cropduster and SOLAT because each performance has flaws and really good parts in opposite places. I really want to include them and I think it will work.

If a song is not listed here, that means the performance is shit.

Comments and criticisms welcome.

[Norah]

I trust you, just put it together and I'll listen.

[Kevin Davis]

Were "Of the Girl" from Sendai and "Oceans" from Osaka bad performances? I haven't listened to them for a long time.

[Wendy Carlos's Twin]

I forget already. They must have had substantial flaws because I crossed them out. Release>Can't Keep from Tokyo is really strong and it's definitely gonna open the set.

[Wendy Carlos's Twin]

Just noticed that I missed a couple songs. Don't crucify me just yet.

[Kevin Davis]

Not at all, I just didn't remember. Sometimes you have performances being great in your mind and then you listen and wonder how you ever got that impression.

Just an FYI, myself, ridleybradout, and lowlight have a comp that is pretty much complete, just putting the final touches on it...

[darth_vedder]

Any solid versions of "In My Tree" from the Japan tour? I have a few 2003 boots, and I don't think I really have any versions of the 2003 rework (other than the Garden dvd).
