    Bruce in Dublin on Tuesday. Looking forward to it.
    He sold out 3 shows here. First is tonight.
    The sets look similar to the US leg.  You'll have a great time!

    I do hope he makes some changes before stadium tour later this summer

    28 songs from Bruce.    Wish PJ wouldn’t slow down and would continue to differentiate itself.

    I saw him in 2016. Sad for Bruce though I had seen Neil Young just a day or two earlier. So it was going from watching rock to watching a broadway show.  

    It was great. My review:

    Bruce is Bruce. Something for everyone. It’s a show. Rock theatre. Well rehearsed. No one should leave not having had a good time. And a good time people have. 


    Not as great seat tonight. He’s playing Johnny 99. The sound is clear though

    Love Johnny 99. And you're right,  it's rock theater.  That's a good description.  When I took my son,  he made a similar comment but he loved it as well.  His other concerts had been PJ, DMB, QOTSA, Jack White,  so he picked up the big difference more than me.

    Did you go to two shows?

    I went to the second show out of the three. But watched Indiana Jones just next door on night 3, so I stood outside after the film had finished and listened for a few songs peaking into and seeing the crowd. That's when I heard Johnny 99.

    Just got nosebleeds for Wednesday at The Park of the Citizens. Just my 2nd Bruce show! $100 plus fees per ticket - not so bad.

    I’m a little bummed that Bruce didn’t shake up the setlist for the second round of US shows.  Seeing him again in September after catching him in April.

    I was really surprised to see the Wrigley sets be so similar to the spring tour.  I was bummed because the DC show got moved to the same weekend at Ohana so I was going to try to find a different one,   but now I think I'm okay with just the one show in Baltimore that I attended.

    I was looking on stubhub, actually those prices aren't too bad. I was thinking of seeing the Arctic Monkeys in philly also and those stubhub tix were pretty insane. I think the cheapest I saw was like $125 (w/out fees)

    Totally.  I saw that Baltimore show too and I’m seeing him at Camden Yards next month.  Im still happy to be going but it’s weird to be repeating setlists in the same city.  Maybe that’s his way of making more tickets available for fans… make it less urgent to see multiple shows since the setlists are so static.

    Completely agree. Why isn’t he shaking it up?

    On2Legs might be right,  at least partially. It will keep down ticket prices.

    Setlist non-changes notwithstanding, it looks like I'm about 45 years late to see this one in concert. :(

    So...this was incredible to see. 73 years old, three hour show, straight fire. The first 9 songs were one after another with almost no stopping. So much energy throughout. The band looked to be having a blast. 

    I know the setlists aren't changing like in years past, but what they are playing is awesome. Such a fun night. Highly recommended.
