I adore both of these songs. That's a searing version of Comatose that captures everything I love about the studio version and just replaces some of the rawness with live magic. This is a pretty solid version of undone (i like the multiple 'buildings' going into the outro), but it's not as good as the studio version. It can't quite capture the new age smoothness that is part of what makes that song so good.

I like Undone fine, but Comatose is a great song (and one that benefits significantly from the faster pace they give it live; the studio version always sounded just a bit sluggish).

Undone has never appealed to me. I don’t hate it, but I find it bland and boring. I’m not generally a fan of Comatose, but this is performance is pretty sweet. it wins by default here.

Two good live versions, of one song that I like which is slightly weakened in live performance, and another that I like a little less which is slightly improved in live performance. I think I'm going to go with "Undone" -- it's a more special song in their catalog, and kudos to them for getting a seldom-performed rarity this right. Didn't the mayor of Newcastle write the setlist that night or something?
