The last show, in Washington D.C., at 6:30 EST tonight, is being broadcast on the internet and on the Sundance Channel... It includes Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band, James Taylor, R.E.M., Bonnie Raitt, and Dave Matthews.
And one last thing: can anybody record this and/or share it?

and pearl jam was great- their version of masters of war was amazing as usual (not as good as their acoustic version at bob dylan's 30th anniversary concert at msg in '93, but their best ever electric version)

yeah Man on the Moon was excellent...although im not a big bruce fan. he was ok - guitar playing was great but i would prefer to have seen Stipe on lead vocals all the way through
seems like the audience was there to see Springsteen though. ive got nothing at all against him but i just like a lot of other artists far more
and ive never got away with Pearl Jam...
but REM were good! ;D
did i mention im going to see them??

yes you have- and i saw bruce at giants stadium- he was so good, i went to his last show of the 2003 tour, a year ago 9 days ago (10/3/2003). it was at shea stadium, and the special guest of the evening was none other than bob dylan. he rocked the house down both nights. even if you don't like his songs (which i can completely understand), you have to go to his shows because he puts on the ABSOLUTE BEST shows you can see. and you can quote me on that

and dave rocked the place- to my surprise- especially that last song, with the violinist's solo
the drummer's one of the best in rock, other than zak

he's been great- he released the rising, which was pretty big...
and went on a world tour for 2002-2003. i went to a giants stadium show in july '03, and the last show of the world tour at shea stadium (where the beatles played in 1965) in october '03. (bob dylan showed up and played highway 61 revisited with them- the whole show was 3 and a half hours!)
