    That it’s all supposed to be hush-hush, but word is that either Bruce Springsteen (again) or Bon Jovi will play Fenway Park [map] in August. “It’s a coin toss,” said Someone Who Knows. There was some chatter than U2 might play the old ballyard, but the band’s new album doesn’t come out untilfall, so it’s unlikely they’ll tour before then.

    I don't know why everyone seems to be getting pissy that he didn't get a nod for Album of the Year. He still got nominated 4 times which is a hell of a lot. Springsteen's won a shit load of Grammys in the past so who cares.

    some people get it,

    Everything else = Reserved



    this is where GA isnt the greatest ( Giants Stadium on the floor all the way in the rear )

    in giants stadium, if i am not inside that front pit at or near the raling, then i most definitely want a reserved seat.

  • I was responding to a question about the Portland show, but yeah, that does sound shitty. I wonder if I'll head to these shows or see if he adds dates in the fall. Ideally besides Portland and Seattle I'd like to see at least one show back east (hopefully the last show of the tour).

    I just think some people (not you in particular, since I wasn't talking to you in the first place) are taking this a bit too far. 4 Grammy Nominations is still a good haul. It's nice to see that the Album of the Year nominations are diverse and broad. "Magic" is good but it should be judged on how it is as a record, not by Springsteens legendary status. And it got good reviews, but they aren't exactly as universally positive as they were for The Rising (which got nominated for Album of The Year, I believe).

    Quite frankly, I think its' amazing that Springsteen is still been recognised by the Grammys these days. Look at all of the other artists from the 70s and 80s who have faded away into obscruity. "Best Rock Album" and "Best Rock Song" (among others) is nothing to be sniffed at, surely.

    Anyway, I didn't want to derail your thread so sorry, just wanted to explain myself.

    Got tix for Portland, I'm tempted to swing up to Seattle the next day but the only tickets left are behind the stage way up in the second level AND they are $95 before fees and taxes.
