Thats the show after Tampa. Hope they keep 10th ave freeze-out. The pause after "and the Big Man joined the band" was a great touch as was My City of Ruins. Odd to hear a show without Born to Run but I think he was trying to get the new songs down and hope they bring back the ~ You've just seen...."the heartstoppin', pants-droppin', hard rockin', booty shakin', earth quakin', love makin', viagra takin', history makin', legendary E STREET BAND!!!" ~ odd indeed, but you KNOW it will be back in, i figure this was a special 'one-off' where they wanted to throw the special sam & dave cover in at the end.... and don't forget, they were held to two hours because it was a show especially for the radio broadcast. i'm sure beginning with the first proper gig the setlist will open up and btr will be back in there.  |

It sounds great and Nils(I'm assuming it was him) did a great Tom Morello impression but I dont like it in the live set. It's too slow and a little of a momentum killer after The E Street Shuffle. On the last two tours he hasnt picked the best setlists. I'm just hoping that he doesnt play Waitin On A Sunny Day when I see him but for some reason he loves that fuckin song.

Ive seen him 4 times with the band and he's played it every time. one was with the seeger sessions tour; the other was on the rising tour... at shea stadium. the final night of the tour. the concert was three and a half hours long, with special guests galore (bob dylan was one... oh yeah). |

That most have been crazy to see dylan and bruce together. The show ast night was amazing. our seats were horrible near the top of the arena but the sound was great but our section was a little tame. I was a little nervous heading in to the show cause the setlist had been stagnant for the 2 warmup shows and the 2 openers but he played 7 tour debuts including american skin in response to the kid that got shot by the "community watch" guy. Show clocked in at about 2:48 mins. Not bad for a 62yr old guy. |

He took two requests. Glory Days was for a girl with a sign for her birthday. I was happy when he played it cause I knew that we got an extra song because there is no way he's not closing without 10th. Talk To Me was an audible for Spirit in the Night and Atlantic City was an audible for Johnny 99 so you might get those two. Im glad we didnt get 99 wasnt a fan of the arrangement last tour with the woo wooo's |

Bruce Springsteen sucks big hairy sagging doggy balls that are sweating from the hot, hot, humid day. Thanks for adding nothing to the conversation not once but twice. If by sweaty saggy balls you mean he has sweaty saggy balls after performing 3hrs running around the stage instead of standing in one spot for 90mins playing the same setlist night after night after night, then yes he sucks hairy saggy balls. |

You have good seats? How'd the Giants go over in Boston?like a lead balloon ;D but seriously, it was all in good fun and he really got a kick out of it, i think he paused a few extra bars longer than usual for us to really let him have it, he was laughing the whole time ;D we had balcony 309, which was pretty much dead-center. the tracks from the new album all sounded great live, especially wrecking ball, jack and rocky ground. even we take care of our own, which i really don't care for much on the record took on a new life of it's own, with the passion and emotion of his vocals. he played 'thundercrack' by request, for a kid who was holding a sign in the crowd. it looked like we had another audible during the encore but then they just played dancing in the dark. and 41 shots sounded great. my only regret? not going to see him sooner. oh, check your inbox, by the way |
