LH for sure- although Dublin 06 was pretty special the whole band just seemed to be much more up for it and sounded a lot better this tour.

Lost Highway

I also prefer it as an album over Have A Nice Day

I voted for HAND. The LH tour wasn't as good in the states. the sets were longer and had more rarities in europe so it's kind of an unfair comparison. I voted for hand because the album was better, john looked and sounded younger, tickets were cheaper, and most importantly, the us had an amazing stadium tour to end it, including ending it at giants stadium.

This shouldn't even be a competition. Lost Highway easily. The HAND tour was great at Giant's Stadium, Continental, and MSG. Mainly because those were the shows I went to! But they really had awesome setlists, especially Giant's Stadium.

Lost Highway by a mile.. Or two....

Regards,

This is a funny statement.

Perhaps the fact that Jon looked and sounded younger was because.. Maybe he was? Lol. That was hilarious! =)

Well I don't know about you, but I think that the band sounded better is a plus. but for me the two HAND shows I saw were way better than the LH shows. I saw 2 from both. From HAND I saw them at Giants Stadium night 2. Amazing. And I also saw them at the Target center in Minneapolis. They played 27 songs that night and it was unbelivable. On the LH tour, I went to both of the St. Paul shows. I had fantastic seats for the first night. Good, but the set was lame. The second night I had 20$ seats behind the stage in the Mezz. level. The set was okay, but everyone around me sat and the band seemed a little tired.

Thats what made me pick HAND. Also the album was better.

The LH tour... as it made me a witness of them playing excellent versions of "Hey God" & "Always". Well done boys!

I can't decide. I went to four of the better shows on the HAND tour MSG night 2, CAA night 3 and Giants night's 2 and 3. With the exception of getting Always at Central Park those shows were definitely better set wise than the 3 LH shows I went to. BUT I do think Jon's voice and the band sounder much better this tour, so I'm torn.....

by far the "LH-Tour" look at the "stuttgart" setlist..this set says it all.
Jon also sounded a lot better than 2005/06...
I also prefer the Album over the HAND Record.
The only sad thing is that i saw the weakest europe show in "ebreichsdorf".. band was very tired and without fire
