It's a great boot for it's value, the end of a very emotional and tiring tour for the band. By today's standards the setlist isn't that sweet, but back then it was, Crazy Mary was a rarity then (and mike plays the Stairway to Heaven solo in it ) and it has the MAN trilogy, IN HIDING, among other things, so yeah, get it!!

It was a good show, but if you want a great 2000 boot, get Vegas! Possibly the best Porch ever and best version of Crown of Thorns. It was their 10th anniversery too.

I prefer the 94 or 95 versions of porch, Best crown of thorns IMO goes to Atlanta 2003
But yes, def get it cause its the 10th anniversary

I happen to agree. Chicago, Vegas, Verona, Katwice... all much better. In Seattle 2 the band was on fire, but Ed seemed a little out of it. I have the boot. I was all excited when I ordered it only to find out it was ok.

excellent show man... i was there... i think it was more of a show you had to be at to appreciate it to the fullest. the resurrection of alive was awesome, i don't think the boot gives you a sense of how wild it was in there when they played it. my favorite part of it though are ed's 2 speeches to the crowd, the one before soon forget and the one before yellow ledbetter. he kinda keeps on talking and talking, you can tell they didn't wanna get off stage. absolutely wonderful show. one of the best nights of my life....

Katowice is good yeah but not really a full-on rocking representative show. Vegas--great for the big fan just because of the history of the night, but really, it wasn't a standout show performance-wise for the most part. I usually don't buy it when people rave about any one particular show, but there are a few that really do it for you, and 11-6-00 is one. Benaroya is another.
Very good show! In fact, thank's for reminding me, I should give it a good listen again, haven't done so in too long. It goes right in the player after I finished re-listening to Lo2L in a while.

Perhaps I will listen to it tonight. Soon I may not be able to listen to any music for a long time, this one will be worth the listen again. I like this show very much.
