Reply to "SPL's Must-Have Bootleg List"

Update of my yesterday's list after some more thought went into it:

Of course it would be great if others also provided top 5/10 lists but otherwise everyone should just pitch in ideas for their personal favourites. And later, there should be some ugly fighting about what show is better than another, like in the old days! I, for example, will not get tired of telling you that Olympic Stadium 2nd Night should NOT be on that list....

These are what I think are essentials for each tour. For some tours I listed less than 5 since I don't know what else should be considered "essential" for the respective tour.
