unbelievable show. it was my third time seeing the boss and after a pair of 2 hour shows on the first leg I did not expect a marathon of this caliber. I was dying when they played rosalita totally unexpected and amazing

Anybody going to the Nashville show? I'm sorry if it is aleady posted, but this is a HUGE thread and I didn't read through it - only the last couple of pages.

Very good show last night...probably my 10th show and it still blows me away how much energy Bruce has!

I was very happy to hear Jungleland. Growin' Up too!

And the seats Jwmcc and I had were great, Sec. 2A right behind GA on the floor, so pretty much row 15.

Has anyone caught the rewinds live tracks / setlist on XRP ( 101.9 ) after the shows ?

pretty awesome !

theyll likely be near 90 different songs played on these 3 shows in Giantys Stadium!- At this Rate - who knows for sure what The Boss can come up with , besides a little Magic


NYPJ1- you shoulda went.
They are only selling using 2/3 of the full stadium- its not near as bad as you assume and you can still easily pull off tailgating without getting there at 7am.
The Band makes use of the big house just fine .They sound incredible.



Bruce seemed more emotional the first night.
Perhaps he came to the realization that this was the end of an era.
The second night was more relfective on the crowd and the Birthday of Patti and all of the family around and in on the experience.
Max Weinbergs' son playing drums on B2R couldnt be more poignant and symbolic, really.
Last night I was in row 1 ( of the red chairs ) of sec 132 , and it was amazing .
Only the 3rd live performance ever of Held Up Without A Gun , Drive All Night , Out In The Streets opener were all highlights for me from night 2 .


Oh yeah and there was a Giants Stadium puker over near the pit on the floor on Pattis side,..i hear they were pprojectiles. and for night 1 in section 108 a girl peed right there in the alsle / seat ,.... before being escorted out of the Meadowlands.

I heard all of it last night on that station. I'm a big fan of that station, it's much better than Q104 or K-Rock.

Anyone have a favorite youtube Springsteen video?

A co-worker just won tickets to the show on Saturday and is just going to give them away. I'm trying to convince her to go herself by showing her a great video on youtube.

Bathgate66

well, off shortly to my final show for a while out in the swamps of jersey.

if not the opener for night 3, i hope to be fortunate enough to at least hear Lucky Town, and somewhere in the set Land Of Hopes And Dreams tonight.


peace.

Maybe one of you here can help me with this.

I signed up for Backstreets in order to post on the message board. I got the "Welcome" email, but I have to wait for another one from the administrator apparently in order to start posting.

Several weeks have passed and I haven't gotten that email. What should I do?

This has got to put a smile on anyone's face- "Waitin' on a sunny day":

I also really like this one- "Long Time Comin":

I just love the way he leans away from the mic to make his voice seem distant and then much nearer during the warm chorus. It is much better totally stripped down as well.

Actually, I should have been more specific - it was for the BTX Boards on Backstreets. But I just tried to log in there and it worked!

Maybe they just needed to conduct a background check...

I just read online that Bruce did a solo version of "You're Missing" on SNL a while back and was wondering if anyone had a link to a video or mp3 of it?

It was an amazing show!! Thought MSG II would have been the longest show I saw this year but this took it to another level 3 1/2 hours! The show didn't start until 9:30 becasue of an accident on the Jersey Turnpike that kept the Stadium half filled until after 9 (My wife got there a little early for some tailgaiting).

Anyway, the best show I have ever seen him do. I think this was my 6th or 7th show and always in NY/NJ, but he just did not let up last night. A lot of songs I had never seen before live.

As he has been doing at the stadium, takes posters from audience and switching up the middle of the show for some rare ones.

Tonights audibles

Blinded ! (Which was amazing!)
Incident
Cadillac Ranch
and at the end Jersey Girl (got a slow dance in with my lady!)

Ending with Rosie was amazing!

Show ended at 1 AM, got home at 2 AM, was in the office by 7:30. I am exhausted.

On to EV on Tuesday!
