[elevation2u]

I was gonna scan pics from one of couple Bruce books I have but got tired after the first 2 scans.

but here they are:

random internet find:

It has been more than thirty years since Bruce Springsteen's album Born to Run was released, but now a new book reveals the unseen photographs of that album photo shoot.

BORN TO RUN: The Unseen Photos delivers over 100 black-and-white photographs drawn from the more than 700 that photographer Eric Meola took that day including the cover shot which has been deemed "iconic" by Rolling Stone magazine.

I want this book.

Thankfully Christmas is coming up.

 

[elevation2u]

yes, but 2 other books are coming out too
and they both look really good ...
so now I will be tempted to buy all 3 books

 

[elevation2u]

ok, so..i have nothing to contribute except i went on a scanning frenzy earlier today...

Ok, the pic of Bruce in the 'shiny' hallway...

Isn't there a similiar pic of U2 in a similiar hallway

If we're thinking of the same pic it's from around the ATYCLB-era... it would be pretty cool if was the same hallway!

But anyway, I just came in here to ask one small question - what's the average size of the venues that has been used for the Seeger Sessions tour in the US?

 

[elevation2u]

I don't know any technical answers regarding tours and venues, sorry

I know I can't be the only one who doesn't find
an ounce of singing talent in Patti

You're not, I've been on a vacation from all things computer related so just now catching up on my favorite threads.

It just really seems like Bruce is so much looser and has more fun on stage when Patti isn't there. He loves to flirt with us girls in the audience and it gets toned down a lot when Patti is present

I did like Patti when she was just doing the background vocals but now vocals get added to songs just for her to sing and it just doesn't really add anything of substance to the presentation.

Patti wasn't at the Seeger Sessions show I was at, and he was being quite the flirt.

And to answer the Seeger venues vs. the others, they have been much smaller, but not sure of the numbers. He was playing all those outdoor venues that the likes of Styx and Journey play nowadays.

Well, I saw him at the Tweeter Center, and that place holds almost 20,000 people. I don't think it was sold out because there were lawn seats available, but it was certainly close.

Of course, he always does well in Boston, just like in NY and Philly...

Special Edition of Seeger Sessions is out tomorrow - I'll be getting the two bonus tracks on iTunes, thank you very much.

I just remembered to ask for the BTR book for Christmas.

The second leg of the European tour kicked off last night in Italy, and he introduced a new version of The River. Oh man, I'm pissed he's not doing another leg here.

 

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

No kidding.

I had forgotten he was doing that second leg in Europe. :badfan:

[Headache in a Suitcase]

two new tracks? but it's already released material!

i have a feeling these new tracks are just delaying bruceo from getting back into the studio and creating a new album.

what a sell out.








this is what this thread would look like if it were about u2.

ahh it's refreshing to see people simply enjoying whatever new stuff they can get

 

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

Hehe.

Bruce's official site is having a contest to win a trip for 2 to see the boss in DUBLIN!

[MrsSpringsteen]

I wish I could win that, I never win anything

 

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

Oh, hell, that would be nice.

I just entered. Hey, a girl can dream, can't she?

 

[MissHewson]

Yesterday I've see Bruce in Perugia, here in Italy.

It was AMAZING!!!

 

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

Nice!
