Any opinions on which is the best sound quality recording from this tour?

I think the best one is probably 7/07/09 from the second night at the 930 Club in D.C. It's a track-at-once .mp3 only and is still active on dime. It was available at NPR's website for a time at http://www.npr.org/templates/story/s...toryId=5480397, but "Audio for this concert is no longer available at the label's request."

There are lots of high-bitrate audience recordings out there too, but I think these are the only soundboard-quality recordings; if there's others, I'm keen on knowing of them. There's the No Fun Fest '09 too, but there's no The Eternal numbers on that one.

From the audience recordings so far, the Atlanta (July 13th) show has the best sound to my ears.
