Even with my crappy speakers, I can definitely tell the difference between more recent ones (2011 and 2012) and the ones from the early 2000's. However, rumour has it the 2011/2012 boots even sound better than the 2009/10 shows - which still sound great to me.

I am impressed that they continue to strive to improve the sound on these things.

I wonder what's to improve on the 2000, 2003, 2006 bootlegs I've listened to

I mean, they're pretty good soundboards, it's not like there's a lot of noise to remove or anything. I'm curious to hear that "improvement"...

The Euro boots sound from 2000 is a bit low, when compared to the NA boots from the same year.

They sound good...just an adjustment on the volume is all that is needed..I set my eq to rock on my iTunes library and its all good.

I listened to Katowice this morning (06.16.00).....awesome gig,hadn't heard it in ages...

I'm no expert - and all of them sound - great but the more recent ones still sound a bit clearer than the ones from a decade or so ago. Eddie's voice doesn't sound as distant in the newer boots and the music itself sounds less muffled.

Again, I can reiterate enough that the sound on the 2000/2003/2005/2006 shows is still fantastic and the performances themselves maybe even better than they are nowadays...a little rawer, so to speak - especially the 2000 shows.

I agree Matt....I listen to the 2000 boots a lot ...I cant say the same for '03 -'06...

'11 - '12 sound a bit better, but 2000 obviously has so much from the big 5 with Binaural sprinkled in.

My only "issue" with the 2000 boots compared to the ones from, say, 2006, is the lack of "Alive" (in the NA ones, anyway - it's one of my favourite songs from ANY band, not just PJ, and it was only played once) and the absence of "rarer" songs from Ten (Why Go and Deep) and Vs. (GG, Blood, Rats, and Leash).

If the songs mentioned above were played during this tour, I might ONLY listen to the 2000 bootlegs!

Does a full proshot of the famous 2011 MSG show(s) exist?

Thanks again Matt

2010 and no but there are great fan made videos on YouTube. That video gives me chills beyond belief. Two of the best nights in my life.
