    Amazing show and great energy. Really impressed how he can still do it at that age. 

    For sure!  And Billy and Ralph, even older.  Both are 80, 2 years Neil's senior!

    I said it before but we're blessed to still have Neil, Billy and Ralph around and have them playing live shows. There's something really magical about seeing them on stage.

    So true and well said, Edved!

    Definitely, I really hope they carry on and make it over to Europe in the next year or so though.

    I'm hoping for Europe also next year. 

    But turning 40 this year, I gave myself the birthday gift of watching Neil this fall in the US. If the tour doesn't experience any hickups and is getting cancelled. Always a worry since Pearl jam started cancelling shows.

    I've noticed in several recent photos of Neil he is wearing a lot of layers of clothing lately.  I wonder if the hot weather will appeal to him? 

    Those temps at a show with a large crowd can be problematic.  Stay hydrated!

    Texas postponed again. These shows are cursed.

    You can blame me, I’m the jinx.

    Just pulled into the lot in Indy last year when PJ cancelled. And then about to call an Uber tonight when I saw the news. 

    Big bummer. Hope they all get rescheduled.

    That’s an awesome gift to yourself! ❤️

    Hey Bri, we just had a long run of tops 70 degree high/ 60 ish at night with a lot of clouds and some sprinkles. Perfect for his multi layer flannel! (For the holiday weekend we finally getting 80 and sun!)

    the upcoming heat has got to be tough for them. I’m younger and couldn’t travel to a show because of my knee. Looking at some of the recent  setlist, huge bummer. Not sure how many opportunities we will get to see Neil again, so everyone who can go, GO!

    Very sorry to hear about your Knee, L, especially as it prohibits travel.  I hope you get some relief soon.  Any plans for surgery or knee replacement?   
    Some kind of knee work is something I can see I may have to go through eventually, but not until I get old, lol.
    Also hoping you get some of that just right weather!

    What a crying shame Danny Whitten couldn't get it together.  He had such a great, distinctive voice. 
    I like this version even more than the original release.  Might have to think twice about passing on this record!

    doesn't bode well for Ohana sadly... but hopefully?

    Bourbon & Beyond is the weekend before. I had tickets for Chicago and Winnipeg shows as well as B&B and Ohana. I just realized Springsteen is open from 9/15 to 10/31...
