Which was Live's best year? Options

[dangum]

Which year in Live's history would you consider to be their best (or your favourite)? You can base it on the music produced that year, the publicity received, awards given, albums sold, online interactivity, touring locations etc. or any other metric you like.

1998-2000ish TDTH era, no question. You got a mix of the hits from TC and SS, and the rock of TDTH.

For me specifically, they played a secret show in September of 1998 at the Crocodile in Seattle the night before the Bumbershoot festival, which was still a year out from TDTH's official release. I had no idea what to expect coming off the high of SS from just a year prior (I saw them three nights in a row on the SS tour and went from Vancouver BC to Seattle to Oregon) and was blown away. I was front row and had the time of my life. They were on FIRE that night. Just look at this setlist:

WFG
Still Aroused
Selling the Drama
