Boots sound rotten but performance-wise I think these were/are the band's best shows post-2006.

It was slightly better than 2011, but towards the bottom for me.

The boots are awful..i dont want to listen those again...maybe the MSG shows...but goddamn those sound bad.
Lukin 2 was great.

I saw 2 shows that spring, and one of them was MSG II, which I would rank up there in my top 5 PJ shows of all time. So my judgment may be a little skewed.

I would probably agree with this.

I have no problem with the quality of the mix in 2010. The only poor mix year is 2008. All other years are acceptable, yet debatable.

I think these shows are underrated because the boots sound so bad (I can't listen to anything from 2008/2009/2010). I did Hartford and Boston on this tour and liked both shows. I think the five show run from Hartford-NYC 2 are really awesome setlist-wise, again, I haven't really listened to the boots.

There is no consistent 2010 mix. Each recording sounds different. And most sound like crap.

This was the last tour where I was really "into" keeping track of live PJ, so I listened to a lot of these shows as they were released. I really like St. Louis, Cleveland, Boston, Newark, and Hyde Park. The "Black Red Yellow" from MSG is smoking, too. I thought the 2011 shows were a lot worse by comparison; I haven't listened to anything from 2012 apart from Spenno's mix.

While the setlists from 2012 weren't the greatest, the mixes are superb.

the 2010 tour sounded quite good, especially the US shows, too bad the shows sound like complete shit. Boston sound like it was taped from the shitter.

That Bison show was great. I'd love a brett remix.

Yeah, I was at MSGII as well and it's one of the best I've seen.

Listened to the abomination that was Lukin from Worchester II '13 today and you wonder why it isn't played as Lukin II every night.

Like everyone else said, good tour, but the boots are so fucking awful that it's hard to look back and enjoy these shows.

Cleveland and Newark are excellent...the rest I haven't listened to as much. I agree with the boots sounding like total shit.

Are we forgetting about the Europe shows? I mostly have.

The setlists in Europe were kind of a snooze, but they were playing very well. Hyde Park and Berlin are both pretty solid shows.
