  1. I was meaning Binaural songs but feel free to discuss "in general" too. I appreciate that this may take some time but your opinion here is valued.
  2. I will put a list up of all the songs from 2000 European Tour first.Then I can list songs from the other 2 legs.The band picked 18 shows,out of the 72,that they thought were the best.The back of the bootleg,has a small picture of an ape,and a man.These were referred to as the apeman shows.Ill list those as well.
  3. Bought the PJ20 DVD yesterday and watched last night.....HOLY CRAP YOU GUYS NEED TO SEE THIS MOVIE.

    The end.

    I have heard about that...I'll look those ones up and work from them.

    I'd have just used the European leg of the 2000 tour but, according to setlistfm, Parting Ways wasn't played until they reached North America.

    True,same goes for In My Tree (08.06.00) and Breath (09.01.00).Im sure theres a few others as well.

    Alive, was dropped after the Roskilde tragedy.It wasnt played again until the last show of the year,Seattle N2.
  6. I dont really agree with the whole Apeman list.There are a couple of shows picked that,IMO,I dont think were so great.Example.Paris(06.08).This is an Apeman listed gig.Its good.But Prague(06.14)Berlin(06.25) and Hamburg(06.26) are superior shows.IMO of course.Stockholm(06.28) and Norway(06.29) are great shows as well,and as good,if not better than the Paris show.San Sebastian(05.26) CD1 is very intense.A fatastic first set.But side 2 is a mess.Many mistakes.So,obvioulsy I understand why it was left off.But you need to hear the first half at least,from that show.The breakdown during Alive,a complete mess.But a must hear.LOL

    Most of the N.American Apeman gigs I agree with.But the 2 shows in Philly(09.01&02)(Camden,NJ) are way superior to say,Atlanta(08.07) or WPB(08.12) that were picked over them.

    Each show is different.Yes,alot of the same songs appear.But what makes PJ so special,is the simple fact that,THEY PLAY DIFFERENT SETS EACH AND EVERY NIGHT.Sometimes EV does the set 10 min before they take the stage.I love his comments in PJ20.He said something to the effect of "I couldnt play the same set, each and every night.Some bands do this.Like every night.90% of the same songs.Id go mad".He should tell Bono this.
  7. I think it's truly amazing how well the band can perform any given song in their catalogue as well as they do any given night.

    I'll take your non-Apeman gigs into advisement. Instead of doing a "Binaural Live" mix, I'll probably do a 40-or-so-song mix that has all they Binaural tracks in it - as opposed to the Seattle mix I was working on that is missing both "Of The Girl" and "Thin Air" amongst a few others.

    Yes indeed I noticed that "In My Tree" wasn't played in Europe. Too bad no "Glorified G" at all on that tour...and why so little love for "WMA?" I love it.

    I know.Theres great versions from the short 2008 N.American gigs of WMA.

    Ill list a bunch of songs today,mostly from the European leg,that I think are the best versions of the songs.

    and that makes a hard fight to do a selection hehe
    let's Binaural in tour 2000 .. first and very very argueable list going from memory

    Breakerfall: West Palm Beach - Verona - Mansfield
    Gods' Dice: Mansfield - London
    Evacuation: Berlin
    Light Years: Prague - Milan - San Bernardino
    Nothing As it Seems: Verona - San Bernardino
    Thin Air: Berlin
    Insignificance: San Diego - East Troy - Milan
    Of The Girl: Milan - London - Albuquerque
    Grievance: London - Jones beach
    Rival: West Palm Beach
    Sleight Of Hand: Jones beach - Milan
    Soon Forget: Verona
    Parting Ways: San Diego

    for some songs i didn't succeed to choose just one and for sure i forgot some performance
    i "forgot" Seattle on purpose


  10. knowing the time of shipment and arrival (outside US at least) of the Ten club i dont' think i can't wait for the boxset to arrive so i'll probably buy the simple dvd too in the next days
  11. Not to seem like a "bad boy" but there are links out there where you can view. Since you've already purchased it (the boxset, for that matter) you can justify/rationalize watching it for free.

    I haven't watched it yet. I have to go to Best Buy in the next couple of days, so I just may pick up the "base model."

    Thanks for these. I can't decide which song to open with so right now I have it as Sometimes, Of The Girl, Long Road, and Release...could also add in Oceans, I suppose. I like how those songs are only set openers.
