I bought 10 tickets on a mates credit card last time around!

Ain't going this time. That sitting on a wall idea sounds good though.

How much personal space do you require?

For the authentic Bruce in the RDS feeling I'll fake a bogger accent, wear a cowboy hat, get disgustingly drunk and when I need a piss just whip out my lad and go there and then.

Last time he played here i got gastroenteritis from a food stand outside the horse show house. I was born to run for the following 4 days.

I got a bit excited I guess.

I was shitfaced by the end of the gig also.

I just want to say, for probably the millionth time that I fucking love Bruce Springsteen. Fantastic set tonight, loads of stuff from Darkness ...

and loads of stuff that I'd never seen him play live before.

I took my dad to it as well and he had a blast, some serious fucking father-son bonding in our family today.

 

[clonan attack]

agreed but the RDS should never be used for a gig again as long as life continues on this planet.shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit

 

[mr pharmacist!!!!1]

why is he called the boss?

 

[rettucs]

this was deadly. Saturday was deadly too. But last night the setlist was better thought out. On saturday he played a lot of his averagey stuff in a row which seemed to drag out.

And between saturday and sunday he didn't overlap a whole lot. I make it about 10 songs (barely a third of the set) that he did both nights.

How deadly was that rendition of Jungleland? And he did Youngstown (having done Tom Joad on saturday).

Didn't think much of that twisty shout thing at the end - he could have ended then cos that was a little bit too cheesy.

But deadly.


Swooooooooooooooooooooon

And he did Youngstown (having done Tom Joad on saturday).

Nils Lofgren owned that song at the end of it. What a guitarist.

Sentimental highlight of the night and I don't care how cheesy it was, Bruce giving the little girl the mic to sing on "Waiting on a summer day."

 

[coast to coast]

Nils Lofgren sure can play, but I'm not sure Youngstown in the time or place for a solo like that!

Best bits for me... Jungleland. What an unbelievably spellbinding song, and what a rendition.

After that - Bruce had obviously checked out my facebook status request for Darkness On The Edge Of Town. Along with Prove It All Night, Promised Land, Sherry Darling, Dancing In The Dark (I sometimes look past how good a song that is because its such a fun song), Hungry Heart... jesus it was fucking excellent!

 

[Lefty Frizzell]

I finally got to see Thunder Road live on Saturday. Worth getting rain soaked for.

Outlaw Pete works great on stage.

i quite liked that one 41 shots too. but yeah. nils and that solo at the end of youngstown. holy shit.

did anyone else think that everytime he said dublin, it sounded like he was trying to put on a dublin accent?

 

[Unicron]

i quite liked that one 41 shots too.

That was super, I'd never heard it before. It's on the essentials album (which I never bothered with as I had the albums already) and the live at MSG live album.

All told I think there was about 11 songs last night that I'd never heard done live before

the guy who looks like he's from the A-Team was signing stuff in Tower yesterday

 

[Jill Hives]

Once again, I could hear this from my living room. Not as good as last year (probably because of the rain) but it sounded like a good time. Didn't make it down to the canal this year though. One of these days I'll actually see him live... when tickets don't cost an arm and a leg.
