    My 2 favorite "rawkin" Bruce vids: what are yours?

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_luq3D92xbg

    RAMROD from Barcelona-2002. This is a bucket list artist/venue for me just a notch above PJ in Buenos Aries.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1r4gczUvJ3s

    Light of Day from New York-2001. Got this from bathgate? an unbelievable performance, so much going on there.

    Enjoy, we are living in an era of incredible musicianship, i for one, will not let a day go by that i do not appreciate the boss and pj.

    That "Ramrod" version is out of this world. Bruce and the band having so much fun. Absolutely love it. "Light of Day" is great. Just a great rocker. Has that '60s feel to it. Hoping for both at Hartford!

    i don't know what it is, maybe my own mortality but for some reason i think of bruce in present tense appreciation, and then i find myself thinking about bruce in a career sense and finally a musical/historical legacy, really 3 parallel considerations that only the boss can evoke.

  • Just received my copy of "Light in Darkness" today. Wow.... what an amazing book for the hardcore Springsteen fan.

    Full info here... much better than I could give you -- I'll only say that its all about what is probably one of the greatest rock tours ever. 8-)

    looks like Ticketmaster has added a " Select Your Seat " feature
    for the upcoming MetLife show(s).

    I've got my eye on drops for the Saturday show-
    :fp:


    There was a drop on Friday morning.
    I was able to score one GA floor ticket for Saturday.
    Keep looking there will be a lot more drops end of next week.
    Can't wait.

    Thanks driving up from Mass and will be driving home after the show.
    I have done this three times now and get home at about 4 am.
    I am over 40 now and could care less about being way up front.
    As long as I am on the field (I am six foot) I am a happy camper.

    On to the tickets,
    I left my IE browser open on the ticketmaster site.
    It would say no tickets are available.
    It automatically refreshes when tickets are released.
    Keep checking every 1/2 hour on the drops.
    You will suddenly check and it will say tickets are availble.
    Good luck.Will be a great show.

  • Lost in all the excitement of Eddie's guest spot at Wrigley was Bruce breaking out Trapped again... anyone find a good video on youtube?

    I was lucky enough to hear this one at Izod2 and even though there are better videos on youtube, this one seems to really capture the power of the song and the roar of the crowd during the chorus:
