Iago's thread made me think of these two shows. Which do you guys prefer? I didn't wanna include Atlanta '94 or Soldier Field '95 because they're my two least favourite.
I'm in love with Berlin right now. The No Code songs are just phenomenal, even with the lyric screw ups during In My Tree. And there haven't been better versions of Long Road and Hail Hail in my opinion.

I'm gonna have to go with Berlin on this one, it was one of the first boots I ever got and has one of the top 5 performances of Long Road ever. Immortality sounds killer on this show aswell.

I'll go with Berlin as well, although Melb 98 has an awesome version of Porch to close.
But how good are these stretches at Berlin?!
Sometimes -> RVM -> Immortality -> Alive -> Blood
SOLAT -> Not For You -> Present Tense -> Leaving Here
Personally, I love seeing Sometimes in the middle of a set, rather than just as a rare opener. I think it would be cool to hear it, if put in at the right spot in the setlist.

I still have my cassette tapes of the 96 show somewhere. I was recording it on a crappy stereo off 94.7 in Portland. I was sooo worried I would forget to flip the tape over.

...but Immortality from 3/5/98 is probably my favorite all-time.

How many radio broadcasts did they do overall?
Atlanta '94, Chicago '95, Melbourne '95, Berlin '96, Melbourne '98
Any others?
I'm trying to make a live compilation of the pre-official bootlegs stuff, but I want the best quality, and the radio broadcasts are the only boots that I can find with top notch quality....

Hollywood '91, and some winter '92 shows as well. definitely 2/12/92 and 3/4/92, not sure about 3/2 though.

Holy fuckballs.
I enjoy your posts Spenno.
And that is a shit-hot setlist.
