favourite live versions.
hi!
don't know if this topic has been posted previously, but this goes out to all the bootleg-lovers out there. what are you favourite live versions of Damien's songs? i know it's not easy to pick just one version, as we all know how Damien loves to change the arrangements, but any suggestions would be welcome! here are some of my favourite (i'll probably add more later on): 9 Crimes - Wembley 6 October 2007 The Professor & La Fille Danse - Dresden 22 July 2007 Me, My Yoke & I - Denver 5 May (i know, horrible sound, but just the sound of that dark guitar sends chills down my spine) Elephant - Other Voices 2006 I Remember/Bang Bang - Lowlands 17 August 2007 Cross-Eyed Bear - Olympia 5 July 2007 as you can see, the 2007 tour is my favourite tour as well!

^you mean the Eskimo > Don't come here anymore???
Boston has some of my ultimate favourites like the best Accidental Babies ever, the one that is like 10 min long and has a piano intro and a piano/cello outro... it also has the Me, My Yoke & I>What do you know about Love bit... an amazing Is That It My Friend... Another favourite on top of my head is Insane at the Greek in LA but might be biased on that one... El Rey 06 has some amazing duets between D&L, Then Go, The Professor, Cold Water, I Remember,... Fool at the Olympia in Paris is pretty stellar there are many great versions of Elephant solo, agree on Norway, also Other Voices, that French TV show...

also, listened to the Me, My Yoke & I from Hove festival, Norway 29 June 2007. cool intro with Damien making some unusual chants. reminds me of the long intro from Castlebar 2007, which again reminds me of Jeff Buckley's Mojo Pin: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3V9b-ZqBoHs
