Default Best show from August 2008 tour?

Been away for most of August so haven't kept up to date with the latest pumpkins news. Seems they played the same set each night for the August tour. Rather than checking them all out, is there a general consensus as to which is the best show to download energy-wise and sound-wise?

Cheers

Davenport was good, but I heard the Raleigh NC was better

But it made the bootleg far better sounding than the Davenport one

Didn't they play Tom Sawyer at one of the Florida shows or was that just a joke?

Davenport. There's two sources on LMA, both sound good. One's more clear.
And yes I'm voting Davenport cuz I was there and it rock so hard

its this way:
all the shows were the same. so you want the one with the weirdest, most fucked up version of set the controls you can find.

blahblahblah

how difficult can it be to practice 4-5 extra songs, and shuffle the other ones a bit every evening? Can't imagine SP2 having to save on printer paper, can you? Oh, maybe that's the reason why they're selling these ludicrous 5STAR! VIP! packages...
