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.

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.

The end.

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

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.

those are really great openers and it's a big decision .. i have a very small preference for Long Road and mainly Release amongst them to open.
i love when they start "slowly"

All the music stores are closing down around here. Is it the same in Europe?

Yes, music stores are closing down. But there are still some very good ones left. And loads of people who loves going to a record store.

almost the same here
there are no more many traditional music stores; mainly music is sold in electronic mega store. very very few ones are resisting though.
