2-Live Trax #22 Montage Mountain: I was in attendance for this one.. You Must Die Trying to Billies to Two Step..My god I love this show...
3-Live Trax #10 Pavilion Atlantico: My god a double encore and the crowd energy was amazing. first live recording of Idea of You, while Grey Street, ABI into Two Step and #41 sounded amazing. Never hear it.. stop reading and go listen...its on spotify..Go.....Now!!!
4-Live Trax #14 Nissan Pavilion: Leroi's last show... Enough Said ... Solid show..and the first Space Between in 4 years..
5-Live Trax #15 Alpine Valley Music Theatre: Man, that 2008 year was a great sound no more Butch and adding Tim. Halloween was an amzing sound and the band was just on fire... A solid listen this was tied with two other Trax but man this sound is just crazy!!
Again my opinion.. feel free to jump in and add your own.. thanks for reading

We have very different opinions on these... I don't think any Live Trax is bad, but these would not make my top 5. Interesting your number 1 is LT 35. I like that. Were you a newer fan around the time, or just really like the Big Whiskey sound. I really do.. Just curious!
Mine are:
LT 3 - Unbelievable 2000 show. They could release this entire summer tour and I wouldn't even be mad. Especially if they sound as quality as this.
LT 16- The other great 2000 show.. LT 11 is missing something mix/emotion wise... But I've listened to this and LT 3 100 times probably.
LT 47- It's a late release but holy smokes. It's such a surprise treat. A 97 show featuring Bela Fleck on a few tunes.. the Seek up is amazing alone, but the whole show is classic 90's DMB.
LT 45- A great 2013 show... Unique set and lots of energy.. 2013 was a rock sounding tour. They were bringing the heavy on lots of the songs. These are the kinds of shows and setlists I'd love to see more of from the trax series. Pretty unique for 2013. Pig- Two Step Encore... Right the fuck on. Plus JTR and a great version of Good Times Bad Times. I'm a huge Zep fan and thought they did well on this.
LT 31- A nice companion to Folsom Field and the sound is much better mix wise. Great bonus disc too. I'd welcome more 2001 shows.
These will change by the time I hit submit.
