I'll have to find my Springsteen tape. Don't you have one of them newfangled VCR thingies?

SQUEE!
And I agree about Springsteen vs. U2 as far as GA goes. I find it incredibly frustrating that they can't look to other artists to see what they do, and how well it works.
Fuckers.

It's done! 
I love that Bruce was able to make a song like "And Then (He) Kissed Me" seem like a super serious song

I heard the Not Fade Away/She's the One combo on a bootleg today on Sirius - not terrible, but my favorite version is still, and always will be, Hammersmith.

Bruce is slated to play an acoustic set after Obama speaks Thursday night
My excuse is more unusual than Martha's: I'll be in the very Republican state of Alaska.

I believe I disconnected my VCR thingie when I hooked up my even more newfangled digital TV converter box thingie to my TV. The TV which will be 3,000 miles away.
Dammit. I love acoustic Bruce.

I'm betting it was the Passaic, NJ boot from 1978, as it's probably the most known and popular version of it.
I prefer it to Hammersmith myself.

They are really freakin' out over at Backstreets. A lot of people are really worried that this might be the end.
I hope they are wrong.

You weren't at St.L. Phan. imo, if it's not the end of E Street, I'm pretty sure it's the end for Clarence
The show started so late because he needed medical assistance from a doc before the show. And honestly, what's E Street without Clarence? I love him, but I can't watch him force himself to keep doing this, when I can see the pain he's obviously in.

Though not a version with Not Fade Away, but my favourite She's The One is the one from Winterland 1978 (where he precedes the song with Bo Diddley's Mona and where the song always breaks down with Bruce doing his "I just don't know" after which the song rocks even harder than before).

OH my God...it's possible. The second version of the St. Louis bootleg IS better

Ahhhhh yes! Isn't it awesome? That speech he makes, I think it's right before he launches into Thunder Road, is just the perfect little slice of Bruce wisdom. And all of the other intros and explanations were great, too.
The man is not just a great songwriter, he is a great writer...period. He has a special gift with the English language.
I think Storytellers is one of my favorite things I've ever seen Bruce do.

Just my humble opinion but I agree with those that feel if it was the end, Patti would have been at the last show. I thought all of them looked a little weary in STL but they were on number 6 of 7 shows in 10 days and they still wore me out that night! Clarence didn't look very well at the end of the VFC shows coming off the Rising Tour either and I really didn't think he'd be out on the road again. Is there an E St band without Clarence? I don't know, it's not the same now without Danny. It was really hard to hear Sandy in KC, first time I'd heard it live since Boston 2 and as soon as it started, all those feelings came flooding back.
Album in the fall, tour in the spring....which will totally kill my savings account and melt my credit cards if U2 starts their tour then too but I'm "going to enjoy every sandwich"

Just rumors.
I'm still hoping for a Darkness 30th set first, but not hearing anything makes me think it's not happening.
And it looks like the DNC rumors turned out to be false. He won't be in Denver.

Oh well. Guess I can turn the channel now.

Wooly Bully! I love it!
I've been downloading the recent bootlegs, and I LOVED that they did Double Shot of My Baby's Love to kick off one of the shows. What a fun song.

Man, I would have loved to have been there.
Shari, where is Veteran's Park? Is that near the Summerfest Grounds? Or is it by the lakeshore, like where the art museum/marina is?
In other news, at my karaoke party last night I sang Born to Run and Cadillac Ranch.

It is right on the lakefront to the north of the art museum. It is a popular jogging and kite flying area.
