Bruce Springsteen - Classic or Dud ?

Sorry
Enjoy your fantasy
We all have them

Seen reasonably likely that he ain't never gonna ride in no used car again

he's just gonna throw that money on the bed. then he's gonna go out walkin'.

And he'll be drinkin' ice-cold beer on the hood of a Dodge!

Well we can reasonably deduce that he's dying to walk

(And then we had sex in the caaaaaar)

Just spent the day in Freehold and Asbury Park, ask me anything.

Did either town rip the bones from your back?

Prob wasn’t there long enough

Did you get Jersey Freeze?

I got sushi, just like Bruce did when he was little.

You went to that fancy sushi place in Asbury? No, you have to go back. You messed the whole thing up.

Did have a conversation with the neighbor at the corner of E Street and 10th about his buddy in the fire department who knows a guy who knows a guy who's in the fire department with Springsteen's son. Also about his son who used to know a guy who knew Springsteen's personal chef who introduced him, and Springsteen was really cool.

We also played pinball on the boardwalk around the corner from the Stone Pony.

Riiight

Did you get chills? xp

Yeah that pinball museum is no joke

Salmon Claus is Comin' to Town

(But seriously Omar won that round with the very elegant "Nori Days.")

I don't think that can be improved upon.

Some fans have been synching their iPhone footage to the officially released downloads that come out a few days later - pretty good results!

Another good one:

"Jungleland" from MSG, in HDR which looks really impressive, especially for the 30 second stretch just past the 2 minute mark (try watching it on a computer screen instead of a phone).

Any idea why Patti Scialfa hasn't played the last few shows?

I thought she only ever did a couple of shows each tour?

it's a good question, I think she did the first few dates? I mean, she could be visiting or vacationing with her kids/grandkids, getting plastic surgery, dealing with other stuff privately; we assume the "health emergency" that postponed shows (or however they put it) was Bruce, but it could have been Patti, or anyone. These folks are old with families and lives.

Bruce finally got the 'vid. Seems to be doing OK.

I just bought some modestly situated (if not quite priced) seats to see the second Wrigley show this summer. He's brought me so much happiness over the years that I ultimately thought it kind of silly to sit it out out of spite. I'll probably make a decision about the first night closer to the date, but I suspect that decision will be "yes" even if he sticks to a static setlist.

I got it too. Think I know which artist I will be paying tribute to first when I get back on the karaoke circuit.

Feel better, James (...and Bruce)

Thanks! I’d like to thank that someday we’ll look back on this and it will all seem funny. It’s not going to BE funny but…

Come on up for the virus

On the way to the airport this morning, my wife's playlist popped up "Human Touch." I was impressed that she went with a (relatively) deep cut, and then she told me it was actually her second favorite Springsteen song after "The River," but that she'd burned herself out on "The River" (like Bruce?) and now gravitates toward "Human Touch." I had no idea! I was impressed!
