20ten Tour -- best sounding recordings?

I'm not asking for boots or where to find them. I'm just discussing sound quality.

What are the best sounding 20ten tour recordings? I've seen that Sabotage (I think) has a running series of recordings from the European summer tour. But the set lists are almost always the same. Is one of these sets regarded as better sounding than the others? I haven't listened to them all, but it sounds like there is quite a variation in sound quality.

Milan is probably the 20Ten recording with the best sound quality. For an audience recording, it's nothing short of astonishing.

There are no 20Ten tour soundboards circulating.

Thanks!

Time 2 Get Funky is pretty high-quality, too.

I guess Time 2 Get Funky isn't part of the 20ten tour and is actually part of the 2011 whatever he called it your. I have no idea. But the set lists and arrangements seem to be the same. I could be wrong. Shit.

I know of a boot titled "Time 4 Oakland 2 Get Funky," it's a 2011 recording which was the W2A tour. Regarding the songs played, yes, setlists for 20Ten and W2A tended to be quite similar.

Time 2 Get Funky is from La Citadelle, Arras, France, on July 9, 2010. Damn, I hope digitalgarden comes back soon (the web site)! Having to Googles this stuff sucks.

Are any of the Sabotage releases worthwhile?

Never listened to them. Any good? I'm not keen on those IEM recordings though.

No idea. I have every single sab release to date and I don't think I have listened to one minute of any of the 20Ten volumes. It was a very dull tour (IMO) to use for a multi volume set.

I listened to the FBG releases, Milan, and maybe one or two others. That was enough for me.

The Bergen show 10-18-10 is fantastic and great sound quality too. Bridge Over Cool Water, I believe, is the title.

A different source for this surfaced recently, better than Roskilde Heat, still audience though. Great show!

the soundboard is nice and clean, but it's not the most exciting performance. the other bits and bobs of soundboard are interesting. the IEM sounds crap compared to other IEM's
