    I just got into Springsteen in the last year. While traveling along the east coast for the 2006 Pearl Jam show my friend dropped in Springsteen's greatest hits CD and I was hooked. "The Rising" is probably my favorite album. It's got a lot of optimism as well as the darker side to it. I hope to get tickets to a show this tour.

    you think hearing the CD got you hooked :confused: ,

    wait until you experience Bruce & The E Street Band live -

    this will get you hooked, no doubt.

    Is it going to be general admission on the floor for the shows? i see that tickets range from $65-95 in hartford and $55-85 in minneapolis. Not bad, considering that its the Boss.
    i hope it is general admission for the floor...then the fact that i have to attend this show solo (if i am able to secure a ticket) wont be a big deal.

    i have read / heard that the entire floor sections will be sectioned as GA- and I assuming is the lower of those 2 pricetags accompanying your ticket.

    perhaps there will be some sort of random scan of your ticket- such as U2 did -- to get you closer into the " elipse " or the " heart " . Alltho this isnt really Bruces MO- it is believed when he saw U2s Vertigo Show in NJ that he really took to the stage setup and the interaction with many more stageside fans.

    from Backstreets

    What's the deal with General Admission this time?
    Based on ticket sales and seating charts so far (and the success of this setup on recent tours), it's looking like the whole floor will be G.A., with reserved seating on the lower and upper levels. We presume the G.A. floor will include a separate Pit up front once again, but details and entry policy are unknown at this time. If anything is announced, we'll have the news here; otherwise, look for reports from the field after the first show.
    If you have a question that's not addressed here, before emailing us we ask that you try our general FAQ, or peruse BTX (particularly the Promised Land forum) to see if your question has already been answered. Thanks!

    BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN AND THE E STREET BAND PERFORM ON 'TODAY' IN A RARE LIVE TELEVISION APPEARANCE

    Springsteen Makes History on Rockefeller Plaza, Friday, September 28


    NEW YORK – Thursday, August 30, 2007 - - For the first time in history, Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band will perform live on NBC News' "Today's" famed Rockefeller Plaza, Friday, September 28, 2007. This marks Springsteen's second live performance on "Today." In July 2002, Springsteen and the E Street Band made their first appearance on a major television network morning show, performing in Asbury Park, NJ.

    In their live concert on the Plaza, Springsteen and the E Street Band will perform songs from their October 2 Columbia Records release 'Magic' as well as classic hits. The band also kicks off their first full scale tour of the US and Europe since 2002-03 on October 2 in Hartford, CT.

    The E Street Band's members are: Roy Bittan - keyboards; Clarence Clemons - saxophone, percussion; Danny Federici - keyboards; Nils Lofgren - guitars; Patti Scialfa - vocals, guitar; Garry Tallent - bass; Steven Van Zandt - guitars; Max Weinberg - drums.

    Jim Bell is the executive producer of "Today" (Monday - Friday, 7-10 a.m.). Melissa Lonner is the senior producer responsible for "Today's" summer concert series.

    It's only 31 shows. I thought I just read on the last page that it's a mini tour? Does that mean that another larger tour is in the works as well? I'll be busy the night he plays in LA and I wouldn't drive to Oakland to see sweet baby Jesus born in person.

    On another note, if this is it, 31 shows seems kinda light. I know Bruce, as well as the band, is all getting up there but it still seems pretty small to follow a new album. JMO.
