Excuse me? I don't think pointing out that Oakland is not in Europe is being a prick. Calling someone a prick is being a prick

is this all part of the "takes one to know one" doctrine?

Lyon 2007 aka "the resurection show" is over-rated imo. The playnig is more often sloppy than tight.

Hey, no problem. You're right of course! I just added Oakland later and missed the right "category", you see ;-) So, nothing to fight about.

Thanks everyone for your opinions on this thread. I attended the most shows of any one tour for me -- 27 but I really don't have that many audio boots. Probably have more video boots of it than audio.
This will help guide me in what to go after and get.
Thanks.

Good Werchter (been there) - but from what source?
And I'd like to know from someone who really heard many of them, what are the best (soundquality +/or performance?)boots from B.Bang tour!?
I had some from Japan and US and found them mostly quite lousy! Most of them I couldn't even listen to until the end.
From Europe I heard just a few. The one -and only till now - I liked was Glasgow!
Some have been mentioned now before. But which are really the best sounding (from Europe)?? Any help?!

drake's recordings of Cincinnati and Atlanta 2006 are good audience recordings - even some commentary from our hero, "ohnonotyouagain".
These cities are not in Europe.

From the ones I've heard, I reckon Glasgow must be the best sounding one, at least juding by mainstream tastes, as it's from a radio transmission. Personally, I don't like this recording too much - it's your typical radio sound with heavy compression, too much bass and muffled somehow. Of the remaining shows, I'd say Stuttgart 2006, Werchter 2007, Isle Of Wight 2007 and London 2007 (first show) are the best sounding ones (strictly speaking of soundquality, that is). Overall I'd pick Stuttgart - which is an excellent AUD-recording and a much more powerful show than, say, Werchter (which has a very interesting setlist, but is a complete trainwreck performance-wise).

Why is only Saitama mentioned from the Japan part of the Stones tour 2006? All gigs from Japan are out here in soundboard quality
The audience releases taped in Japan are usually also excellent
THAT'S CUZ THEY ARE THE WORLD'S ELECTRONICS CAPITAL AND HAVE THE BEST RECORDING EQUIPMENT AND COMPANIES SUCH AS SONY
There was a japanese guy at the london O2 shows who had a pretty fancy set up (I sat near him on the final night), guess he taped all 3. He is the guy who holds the California "STONES" license plate up -- this can be seen in many videos. He also was buying quite a bit of not inexpensive items at the memorablilia convention at the hotel.
However, we agreed to trade and I gave him a disk on the spot at the show, but has never reciprocated nor even responded in spite of my attempts to reach him thru various means.
