MSG Dead

I'm with a lot of folks in believing that the Garden often brought out the best in the band, and this is probably the all-around most amazing show I ever attended. Every song played to its fullest, and I vividly remember how my jaw dropped during the quiet parts of Stella Blue - 22,000 people holding their collective breath. Awesome.

Second that MSG Emotion

fenario80 --

You are Dead on -- MSG challenged the boys, and they played it well. It's nothing to look at, and the sound isn't great, but I think Phil loved making it shake, and he could when the spirit moved him.

And yeah, I was at both shows, and the 9th stands out so much more to me, but the Stella Blue and the Bird on the 10th were very personal and emotionally played.
