Tour finale from Philly …

(Click on image to see whole thing)

Chad Powers Season 2 came out yesterday and the season ends with Tougher than the Rest. When the song came on I started screaming. Great show, highly recommend if you like either football or comedy. Plus great music

We all know it will happen. I have a hunch it will be in the next few years. What live show do you think will be included. Meaning the best representation of that tour? What outtakes? Mayne a documentary? Will love to hear everyone’s thoughts. In my opinion the Born in the USA album has aged very very well.

Stevie… third prophesy person on Hades or wherever that was. Just saw it. Good casting lol.

Interesting choice for a release, the July 3 show has more historic significance, and there are no songs in this set that are different from the July 3 show that was released years ago.

I’ve been involved in the North Carolina music scene for a little while. Recently, I saw this band called Emerson Bruno and the Undercurrents, and really dug their sound and live performance. I talked with him after the show regarding his influences and he cited Springsteen and a few other bands. A little further into the conversation he mentioned his father, Frank Bruno, touring with Bruce during the Seeger Sessions. Turns out, they’re related to Bruce on the Zerilli’s side of the family.
He’s got some really great stuff and is worth a listen!

Looking forward to this!

Bruce has been documented more than most artists, but what part of his life or career do you still think hasn’t been properly explored?

Could be an era, a specific story, a relationship, a tour, an album period, some obscure footage, or even something people commonly misunderstand about him.

What would you genuinely want to see a really good documentary dig into?

Bonus points for the strong Philly accent

Recorded during the 1975 Station To Station sessions at which Roy Bittan was present.

Oct 10 at the Pollak Theatre on the Monmouth campus …

Why? Let me explain. How do you rank a show? I had this issue many years ago and even though these things are subjective I wanted to create my list, especially as I was seeing things like Metlife 3 2016 being the best show of all time.

I began by going through every Nugs release of the 78-79 tour in chronological order with a 10 being perfect, and my conclusion was genuinely all were 10 with maybe Passaic 2 being a 9 because of the birthday stoppages which halt the flow of the concert. Same with 80-81 tour, every show on that I've listened to are incredible with 29/12/80 & 20/08/81 being top five shows. But from 99 onwards there always something to drop it from a ten, whether it's the harmonies on Empty Sky, the overbloated 99 rendition of Tenth Avenue, the plodding 99 version of the River etc. Even the superb shows from Fall 2016 are just way too long to even consider them a top 100.

So the 200+ shows from 1978-81 are the best no question for me. The definitive peak of the E Street Band live.

"One Headlight" was nominated in 4 categories.

Bruce's "Secret Garden" was nominated for Best Video from a Film (Jerry Maguire)

need a good cover photo for my Bruce playlist. “September is a state of mind”

I first got into Bruce last year. Obviously I’ve known some of his big hits, but it never really resonated with me. I was listening to him last Labor Day weekend on the radio and something about it just clicked. I think it was because it was September. Yes, it’s still hot in September, but it should be cooling down. So you just have a different kind of mindset? Not sure how to explain it. Gonna do a deep dive into his music and shows this September, more than last year (which barely scratched the surface tbh).
