Song of the day (best version discussion) today's song - Ants Marching

Today's song is 'Ants Marching'

1 rule:
IN HERE please only discuss your favorite version of 'Ants Marching' and not what YOUR particular song of the day is for listening, this is different.

WHEN LISTING YOUR VOTE PLEASE BE DESCRIPTIVE (DATE, VENUE, RELEASE ETC.) don't just say live trax 5, say venue and da

I love a good long Ants when the sax is nice and loud.

so far we've done these songs, here's the consensus:
Minarets - versions from 95 era basically, 'Tomorrow never knows' intro, BOWA release from that year
Last stop - Live in chicago release,
Typical situation - no real consensus, maybe we'll come back to it.
Warehouse - Piedmont release and BOWA Live Disc release
Proudest Monkey - studio release was the most popular, with 6.7.96 in second, 3rd Rothbury 08.
Seek up - 7.30.01, honorable mentions to RR95 and Gorge realease '02.
Say Goodbye - BOWA release had the most votes, Live trax 3 in 2nd.
Bartender - 8.19.08 at the Staples Center, a lot of mention for Folsom field.
Two step - '08 and '09 versions DC/MSG/Alpine/Starlake. RR95 and Central park.
#41 - 4.20.02, ,Listener Supported, studio was popular too.
Shotgun - 6.10.06 seemed to be the favorite
Dancing Nancies - Central park, honorable mentions to RR95
Too Much - LT8 8.7.2004, honorable mentions to LT2 Golden gate (best outro in my opinion) also Central Park
One Sweet World - LT5 Meadow Brook, Michigan 8.23.95. Mentions to LT2 Golden Gate SF and Piedmont Release.
Jimi Thing - Central Park Release w/ Warren Haynes

LT 3 or 14 for me. I'm going to give LT 3 the edge, but LT 14 is incredible. Roi is absolutely on fire in both of these versions.

I respect your opinion, but the BOWA version sounds off to me. Like the snare sounds weird plust daves voice is completly shot. To each their own though
