Starting these polls to find out the boards fav boots from each year. Starting with 2019 instead of 2021 because I have a suspicion Hunk’s final boot will be a game changer and I don’t wanna do that poll before it drops. I have a feeling this one will either go to Henry Miller due to the astonishing quality, or to Meow Wolf due to the impeccable Setlist, but desert daze could be a dark horse candidate. Enough editorializing though.

Had to go for Meow Wolf cos like you said, the set list is killer. And to be honest the "it's a waltz" girl is
an icon of this era, even though she interrupts basically the whole mid section of the set. It includes the definitive 2019 versions of Prester John and Passerby. So stacked in the first half I actually forgot until checking just now that they play banshee beat in the encore. And that's followed up with Cherokee - phew!

Only downside for me is that on a highway isn't my favourite. I'd swap it for Reverend Green but ya can't have it all

If Love Field was in good quality I think it would be considered the best. Native Belle -> Banshee -> Defeat, then Stride -> Rev Green.. god tier

In terms of tracklist, I consider Meow Wolf to be the definitive 2019 show. Had to vote for Henry Miller tho, that passerby is perfection

Meow Wolf has that other worldly energy. Native Belle Passerby Defeat On a Highway is such a beautifully bleak medley. Some nights I like this version of Passerby more than Big Sur.

Meow Wolf is a great set of songs but Henry Miller is the one I always go to here for the quality of recording. Found myself listening to Desert Daze a lot too, this whole tour was only hits.

meow wolf is great quality and one of the best setlists. the last boot from henry miller was incredible sounding but the setlist was probably the worst from this tour :/

Meow Wolf by far. No other boot has Waltz Girl harmonizing with Deakin on Stride!

desert daze because of the holy trinity of grass, for reverend green, and banshee - never thought I'd get the chance to hear any of those live and I heard them all at one show.

also because I was there!
