    dylbagz - there's a certain pensioner in new york who'll be proving that last sentence wrong .....

    Who's that?
  6. At least clover got one of the things he was after... Meeting into Jungleland!

    Still no Incident without me around.. Anyone who's desperate enough to see it can fly me over and I'm sure it'll get played... My bet is Milan, Leeds or one of the last two nights in Ireland.. Otherwise I don't think that little beauty will pop it's head up again
  7. So Ronnie , tell us how was the show

  8. i could hear him singing in england

    tried complaining to the u.n, amnesty international, even rang Bono but none of them did anything about it.
  11. ok here i am ... recollecting forces for monday night in San Siro hehe
    i thought i was quite loud but didn't think that i could reach England hehehe
    pre-set did almost my day .. well almost of course hehe .. all in a sudden, in the daylight with no sign from the stage, hearing the acoustic guitar starting to play and then he comes out is fantastic .. almost heart stopping .. hehe .. and The Promised Land and Growin up are really a great choice.
    my girlfriend will never stop to thank me as she was about to go to the bath when i said her ".. and if he come out and play?" .. almost 5 mins later he was there on stage hehehe
    coming to the main show .. i loved the start, again solo acoustic, with Tom Joad with Bruce so deep in the song .. then Long Walk Home and My Love that seems becoming quite usual in the beginning, but they're really a great way to start the concert
    Two Hearts, wonderful .. it's always amazing seeing and listening those 2 hearts sharing the same mic .. like 2 children in love hehe
    the 3 sign requests was very nice like choice ... especially for Something in the Night of course .. so emotionally .. and under the rain that started to pour.
    Ties that Bind was a high point too and Boom Boom helped also by the crowd.
    the threesome to "pay tribute" to the last record .. and a great Spirit in the Night with very nice jokes between Bruce and Jakey.
    and then .. well Born to Run ....
    lot had been said about full album played .. loss of unpredictability .. blocked set after and so on .. all valid reasonings but .. but living start to end no interruption such an album .. well it's really an awesome experience .. not many words to describe it ... pure magic.
    and lets say a set that has Thunder Road, Backstreets, Meeting and Jungleland .. joined by Something, Two Hearts, Ties, Tom Joad acoustic is generally great indeed
    after the jungleland shivers a run full of rock and fun with many jokes between Bruce and the crowd and the band
    remarkable Shackled & Drawn i've to say
    note for Ade .. there was a croatian sign, nice i admit, for .. Waitin on a Sunny Day hehe
    ah about signs .. yes there was a beautiful one for NYC Serenade with the 3 baloons for the N Y C attached at the serenade written .. but a couple of letters flew away almost as soon as show started.

    in the end i'm fully satisfied of what i lived since 5pm on .. something better could be done after BTR, but in some way i see that part as a warm-up for Milano hehe
    anyway i can't complain at all .. and i don't
  12. At least you've got a couple of days to recover, back to back and travel is a killer (particularly if you've got serious health problems at the best of times, sunderland to manchester plus crap weather did me no good last year). Born to run i guess is the best of the three choices as you do get meeting and jungleland. I still hope i get a normal show plus i just wish he wouldn't say and now we're going to do ...... that way the serious fans get the realisation of what's going on and the very casual fans aren't really in on it. Good luck in milan I hope you don't get incident (cos i think it's only coming out once and you know where i need that to be).
