Springsteen VII ~ Wrecking Ball

[BoMac]

Got a ticket for Moncton! Who would have thought last year I'd be saying the exact same thing a year later. I hope for women everywhere that Vik doesn't show up.

 

[lazarus]

I wonder if he tailgate parties at shows he doesn't even have tickets to, just to push some women around for fun.

 

[corianderstem]

I bet he's already started the GA line.

 

[LemonMelon]

Vik is in the offseason right now, keeping up his testosterone levels with Seagal/Stallone/Schwarzenegger movie marathons. Preseason begins at the local Bath & Body Works.

GA = "Girl Assault"

 

[lazarus]

Vik is in the offseason right now, keeping up his testosterone levels with Seagal/Stallone/Schwarzenegger movie marathons.

I know if Vik was in this thread he'd feel like he was Under Siege, but he's certainly On Deadly Ground when he starts pushing women around, and he's not Above The Law. The impression people have of him having anger issues is one that's going to be Hard To Kill, especially when some of his crimes were witnessed by Interference members who were Out For Justice and reported his activities here.

Great callback bomac EYKIW/tour forums may be cesspools, but god bless them when they create memes like that.

Going to the Toronto show in July. Yay! Will be my 2nd time seeing Bruuuuce, though the first time I was in front row and I swear he sang to me. Nothing will ever match it.

 

[deep]

I am sure he did.
and it won't be the same.

I am lucky that I was at the right place at the right time.

I just hate the big stadium / arena shows.

But, I guess one takes what one can get.

 

[corianderstem]

We get it, deep. You don't think Bruce is as good as he was back in the olden days.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

gonna have to weasel my way into philly tickets at some point. i'm a little bummed that bruce isn't playing an acoustic guitar in the corner of some dive bar, but gotta make the best of it i guess.

 

[bono_man2002]

Do we think thats it for dates? It seems a much smaller tour, by the numbers than the previous tour? (correct me if I'm wrong)

Currently eyeing off a lost last three dates at Metlife Stadium, but only eyeing at the moment

 

[corianderstem]

Nah, there have to be more fall dates coming. I will start my own riot if there's nothing in the Pacific Northwest.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

i'd have to assume there will be more. i know there was talk that he'd do citifield in october, because, ya know, the mets won't be playing then.

may be able to do fenway then, too

moving to the armpit of the state, right in between ny and boston was pretty much the best life decision i've ever made. mostly because of this.


alicia, start packing.

 

[martha]

Fuck me. I lost it when Candy's Room led into She's The One. I even took my earplugs out.


Tomorrow night, one more time.

 

[martha]

Also, I surprised myself by crying real tears when the spot was on Clarence's mic stand during the band intros during My City of Ruins.

Now I really have to go to sleep.

 

[IWasBored]

I just heard a horrific techno version of ain't too proud to beg. Wtf.


Apparently I was so angry about it, I posted in the wrong thread. Oops. This was supposed to be in random...

 

[LemonMelon]

Fuck me. I lost it when Candy's Room led into She's The One. I even took my earplugs out.

Fuck yes. I've alwas rolled with this transition when playing around with alternate Born To Run track listings.

alicia, start packing.

I'm not sure if I should:

a) erupt in rage because you found out there are no more dates coming and I will have to travel to see him;

or

b) run screaming for the hills because you're telling me I should come to Moncton.

 

[martha]

Bruce was onstage with what appeared to be contest winners. He talked to us a little, took pictures with them. Then, when they all left the stage, he sang For You with his acoustic guitar and the lights all on, an hour before the show will start. Fuck Yes.

 

[corianderstem]

zomg

That's awesome.

 

[IWasBored]

What cori said.

But you know, back in the day he would have sung 12 songs like that.

 

[bono_212]

I love reading stuff like that. Bruce = The Best. Always.

 

[joyfulgirl]

I will have to travel to see him;

or

b) run screaming for the hills because you're telling me I should come to Moncton.

a) I will meet you somewhere to see him

and

b) not in Moncton

 

[Hewson]

Fuck yes. I've alwas rolled with this transition when playing around with alternate Born To Run track listings.

Candy's Room's not on my copy of Born to Run, I must've gotten a defective one.

 

[redhotswami]

a) erupt in rage because you found out there are no more dates coming and I will have to travel to see him;

or

b) run screaming for the hills because you're telling me I should come to Moncton.

a) actually i've not heard that, so you can hold off on the rage for a little longer. i really hope a montreal date is added. how does one go to TO, then Monc, and skip the awesomest city in the world inbetween?


b) yes...?

holy shit.

 

[martha]

Two shows in a row and a head cold= thrashed.


Last night's show was 3 hours long; Thursday's was 2:50. Is that old school enough?

 

[martha]

Also, I just looked it up, he played all of Darkness in two nights except for Adam Raised a Cain, Factory, and Streets of Fire.

That's fine with me.
