    Quit good for a WB encore. Most of the time the encores are disapointing. I prefer American Land in the encore more then Shout

    which just goes to show that everyone is different cos i'd rather chew one of my own arms off than either of them
  2. Indeed, everyone has its own preferences. Unfortenately the encores of the WB tour is most of the times predictable.

    the encores should clearly be the big hits/singalongs

    waiting on a sunny day
    hungry heart
    born to run
    dancing in the dark
    glory days

    thunder road

    and that should be the only place where the casual fans have any grasp of what is going on

  4. Eventhough AC doesn't make the best encore song but It's pretty damn good. Thanks to "Secret Garden." Considering that it was a huge hit when "Jerry Maguire" was released, you would think it would have been played more.
  5. Well the Capetown shows have sold pretty well if anyone is interested.
    Night 1 only has GA and rear seating left, while night 2 only has GA left. Bruce is playing a velodrome there, maximum capacity is 10,000 but I'd say the stage and gear etc might drop it to 7,000. Perfectly sized little show.

    I have no idea what is going on in Johannesburg. With how the seating is displayed it looks like the stage TAKES UP THE WHOLE FIELD of the stadium???

    EDIT: looking on another site confirmed it is the usual set up - Stage > FGA > GA

  7. Got any of the East Rutherford 84 stand or the LA 85 stand ready to download? I've never been able to find them on a good hosting site (although I must admit I haven't tried for ages)

    1984-08-20 and 1985-09-30 are of particular interest to me
  8. i'm sure i've seen that first one recently. I'll try to find out where.
  9. I can't say I am overly keen on the BITUSA tour but I am keen to listen to those two. Would be appreciated if you can hook me up.
  10. Thank you sir! Heard that this show is a gem
