I missed this entire stretch of shows for the most part, some solid looking setlists. How does this tour measure to their 2005 Canadian run? Any shows which are particularly good? Release in the encore for Bonnarroo is something. Wouldn't mind a few links to the better shows - thanks

Saw 4 shows.... both Camden and both MSG... I expected so much better from the MSG shows, but still had a good time. Camden 1 for me was the best though.

i had an amazing time at my shows (camden I, msg I+II, boston II), but the bootlegs didn't really capture the shows. As far as recordings go they aren't nearly as good as 05

I loved the tour since they finally came back to Florida and I got to see 4 shows: WPB, Tampa, MSG 1 and 2. The band was great, Ed sounded awesome. I will admit to being a little disappointed that the two MSG shows had more overlapping songs than I expected. But getting Release and Garden more than made up for that.

i wasn't at camden, but i don't know what else could be expected from the msg shows - hard to imagine, who you are, wma, all night, rats, leash, the real garden, love reign, the best solat i've ever seen, an awesome marker after a false start, special guests, fonzie (smiley back up singer), one of the best betterman sing-alongs i've heard, and the building goddam moved. they were the best shows i've seen since 98 and except for 99, i've seen them every year.

I thought the two shows I saw (mansfield 1 and 2) were awesome, and the boots, though didn't capture the show as well as I'd have liked, were better than the ones from 2006.

Yeah that was pretty bad. It was tolerable night 1, but I wasn't too excited to see them back for night 2. To do the same exact 3 songs.

2008 was a blast, Hartford was a fucking blast. They sounded better than I thought they would. I loved the tracks they pulled out. I went to MSG I, Hartford and the beacon. The beacon opening was real cool.
