Just went back and listened to, compared 6/6/97 to 6/8/97. 6/8/97 definitely wins in my book...
Here's some reasons why:
Tripping Billies (6/8/97) > Tripping Billies (6/6/97) CONTRARY to what Tour Central says,
6/6/97 does NOT have a true Nature intro with Lyrics, 6/8/97 DOES.
#41 (6/8/97) > #41 (6/6/97) - This one's not even CLOSE. 6/8/97 featured a great solo by Roi with a climax into sojourn then Bela and Coffin dueled it out. 6/6/97 there wasn't much of a climax on Roi's solo then it kind of just died out until Bela had his solo at the end, no Coffin.
LIOG (6/8/97) > LIOG (6/6/97) - This one's not close either. 6/8/97 has the best solo by Bela and maybe the best solo by any guest or the best solo performed on any Dmb song PERIOD. 6/6/97 just doesn't flow as well plus I enjoy Carter more on 6/8/97.
Two Step(6/8/97) > Two Step (6/6/97) - This one's debatable but 6/6/97 just drags on at the end and just gets really boring.
Seek Up (6/6/97) = Seek Up (6/8/97) - this one is debatable as well. Boyd just seems to soar a little more on 6/8/97 but Dave seems more passionate in 6/6/97. You decide.
Leave Me Praying is in 6/8/97. Not in 6/6/97.
Say Goodbye is in 6/8/97 and it's a great one. Not in 6/6/97.
One Sweet World with Intrumental Intro in 6/8/97. Not in 6/6/97.
Best Of What's Around is in 6/8/97. Not in 6/6/97.
Ants Marching (6/8/97) > Ants Marching (6/6/97) - 6/8/97 has snare intro and is 18 seconds longer. 6/6/97 has no snare intro.
I've got more reasons but I'm tired...goodnight.
