Alchemy is nearly complete.

Basel is complete and better than On the Night.

Wembley would be good but Sydney is a good representation of the tour, and complete.

If I could have anything it would be a proper official solo live show.

Remember, OTN was essentially a compilation from Rotterdam and Nîmes concerts.  The band still had plenty energy around that time and the arrangements had reached their peak so I personally like concerts/bootlegs from around this period even though the setlist had started to become shorter. 

Basel is a good representation of the tour though.  The Nîmes concert in September showed the band at the end of the tour looking rather tired.

The band were also tired at the Sydney concert and it contains the short version of TOL so I think the Wembley concert would be the concert to have, especially since we already miss most of it.  Even TOL is edited. 

There has to be other footage though from the BIA tour though, especially the USA.  Maybe promo for their Radio City gigs?  More from Jerusalem?  Montreux Festival? :think
