im looking for the best performances of immortality

suggestions please

Toronto 2000.

Don't listen to anyone else! It's better than the 2003 Japan version everyone raves about!

listening to toronto first, but which japan show? there is a bunch of them

this song amazes me everytime i hear it

i'm a fan of the tampa 2000 version, but that's mainly because the garden/immortality 1-2 punch is just phenomenal. i guess the same could be said (for me personally) to the boston 2003 show that went help, help/immortality. also biased to the cleveland 2006 version cuz i was there, but i'm sure measured to the millions of other versions out there it doesn't compare. this is honestly one of the VERY few tunes i actually prefer the studio version to the majority of live versions i've ever heard. (the other being i got shit)

i prefer studio too, i feel the same way with off he goes, but this song is amazing and i wanna hear as many great versions as possible

a line from this song always takes up my sig also... its just brilliant, easily one of eddies best lyrical efforts

any version with the intro is a plus.
But my personal/biased favorite is East Troy '03.

were any of you fans before 00??

christ, youre all a mess...go to bed.

or go and listen to immortality from self pollution 95 then come back and apologize for wasting this young mans time..



fuck.

no. never heard of them until 2000.

I think the best versions are from '96 with the sweet intro (can also be heard on Toronto 2000).

I do agree that The '95 SPR version has the best solo.

this guy's got it right.

best solo: SPR '95

best overall version: washington 1 '95, barcelona '96, melbourne 3 '98, greenville '98, nagoya '03, pittsburgh '03, toronto '00 are a few that come to mind.

i love the jones beach 00 night 3's solo, but eddie fucked up the lyrics, so i'll go with spr 95

I'm partial to the Benaroya version myself.

this is strictly a "because i was there" post, but i never in my wildest dreams thought that i would hear/ see this on at my first show. boston II, 9/29/04. even on my crappy ebay bootleg (it was literally days before i discovered the trading post that i bought it) it sounds great.

someone mentioned alpine valley's version. that is a stellar one. i love that boot.

I think I'd go with that or self-pollution, but that's not really live in the same way.

yep that's probably the best solo...
here's some other of my faves:

10/10/98 Seattle - Croc Cafe show opening for Cheap Trick, my fave overall version, Matt and Mike together fucking rule this version
11/4/95 San Jose - Mike was on fire this whole show, esp. Black; lots of jamming at the end of Immort
11/3/96 Berlin - has the intro, FM quality boot
11/6/00 Seattle - my "I was there" selection, but Matt does go off on the end
3/6/03 Japan - combined with the improv is just awesome
4/16/03 Charlotte - I like the solo in this one

Melbourne 98.

MSG 2 98 is great. I always remember Berlin 2000 as a very good one...Ottawa 05 was great too

Agreed. Nothing beats this version, well unless you count this version: http://www.clearchannelmusic.com/cc-com ... seetherSP/

my, what a heady show that was...vastly underrated.

ps- hate to get on my soap box here, but this show is a prime example of why i miss silver backed, genuine CD boots. I wouldn't of purchased this show if it was just downloads only.

Katowice II, 2000. By far the best.
