I finally got around to downloading Radio Nowhere from iTunes.
It was nice to hear Bruce in full rocker mode again. I was a little disappointed in the sound mix. Don't get me wrong, I love loud guitars, but it seemed to overpower the vocal.
I kind of hope the rest of the album has a few songs with a bit more depth. I loved The Rising because it had a great mix of both fun rockers and more introspective stuff.

The Rising's best songs were Into the Fire, Empty Sky, The Rising, and My City of Ruins. I liked most of it, but those were my four favorite.

i certainly wouldn't argue that
it's beautiful, as beautiful and heartbreaking as a song could be

Even though it came out in the summer of 2002, I couldn't bring myself to listen to The Rising until after the 9/11 anniversary. I was teaching a night class that fall, and I used to play it on the way home, sometimes weeping because of what the songs meant. I think "Into the Fire" is one of the most heroic rock songs ever written, and "My City of Ruins" applies not only to New York but New Orleans.

Straight-forward video. Still good, though.
If anyone wants to hear 30 second snippets of each song on the album, go here:

Radio Nowhere will be first. Just let it continue to play - if you click on any of the songs themselves it doesn't seem to do anything.

It's a nice video, and beautiful photography. I hope this album does well for him!

My favorites from The Rising are the title track (which I didn't even like much when it first came out as the first single, but which I now think is one of Bruce's most inspiring songs ever), Worlds Apart, My City of Ruins and Lonesome Day.

Yep, I think there's even a date for Stade De France in Paris, sometime in june.
I would like a date at the olympic stadium in Berlin. It's not too far from Sweden and I absolutely love the city.

I hope he comes down Under...I was too young/unemployed the last time he came for the Rising Tour...I'm very much looking forward to seeing him live!!

If you go to picture 14 here there's a new picture of Bruce in NYC yesterday, with Jeremy Piven

He's going to perform on the Today Show the end of this month too- I think maybe the 28th, not sure about that.

Has anyone else ventured a listen to Patti Scialfa's new album?
I usually don't really care for her own stuff, but out of curiousity, I heard some of the songs on it, and to my surprise, it was actually pretty good. I've always thought her voice was a bit annoying, but it's toned down with these new songs and suits her much better.
AMG gave the album 4.5 out of 5 stars, which is impressive.

Listening to Patti's album is on my to do list -- I'm sure it'll be on Rhapsody. I saw that AMG review -- looks interesting. But first I've got to get through all these new Interference Symphonic Album playlists!

I heard that Looking For Elvis song and saw the video online somewhere, it was better than any of the other stuff I've heard from her.

Magic has leaked...

I noticed.
I've been trying to decide if I want to hear it or not. Bruce has always been the one artist that I like to wait on.
But I really want to hear this, and it's not like I won't buy it anyway. Duh. I buy everything Bruce does.

I'll listen to it now and I'll buy it later. That I'm sure. He's one of the few artists that I'll do that nowdays. Album prices here is very high. I like him that much. Now, where can I get this leaked version of Magic? Can anyone send me a link privately?
