    +1 haha

  2. hard to say which ones i named is the best .. they sound quite similar to my ear ... maybe Alysha (Milano) is slightly better
  3. Originally posted by dylbagz:Why would you go to the front row of a concert if you aren't a diehard? That's honestly a little beyond me. I mean, not knowing Ultraviolet or The Unforgettable Fire in the front row of a U2 concert? That's a little embarrassing. The band don't want that. They want a good atmosphere and a pumped up crowd who are into every song. There is no reason why any band would want people in the front rows of a show to not know 90% of the songs they play.

    That last sentence is a bit extreme... I'm talking about not knowing 3 out of 23 (in the case of that U2 shows I'm talking about), or not knowing 5 out of 30 (the average of songs I don't know or can't recite on Bruce setlists). It's more like a 10-15% than a 90%. Not knowing a 90% of the songs from a show should ban you from entering the venue

    And I don't know how posers and snobs behave in other places, but here in Spain the "I've been there, look at my 45789 crap photos from the first row" is a powerful and sadly common thing to say.

    Also, just finishing... Bruce's discography is so extense (16 or 17 studio albums plus lots of compilations including more unreleased songs) that I myself find it quite hard to dive into it all - and then again I consider myself a fan. So I can perfectly understand how that U2 fans should feel regarding Mercy (never released) or Spanish Eyes (a b-side played less than 20 times worldwide since it was written).
  4. The Springsteen concert in Nijmegen was the first Springsteen show for my girlfriend, she does not know most of the songs, but it was the best concert she has ever seen and a total moment she would never forget.

    No problem thanks for your info. Milan was a great show reading the review, but personally I do not like so much a complet Born in the Usa album show. But ok, the ultimate Springsteen bootleg, in audio, setlist and performance does not exist, I think
  6. so it was not just a matter of sound
    i'd probably go for Oslo 2 rather than Turku 1 .. even just to avoid Queen of the supermarket hehe
  7. just found videos of bremen 88 and stone pony 82 in a cupboard (though to partailly quote) i still haven't found what i was actually looking for.
  8. which date of The Stone Pony?
  9. 15th august i think - very very rough video, mind so is the bremen - probably worse, that's why they were at the back of the cupboard i guess. found allsorts of stuff though.

    must be this:

    READY TEDDY / FROM SMALL THINGS (BIG THINGS ONE DAY COME) / AROUND AND AROUND / JERSEY GIRL / YOU CAN LOOK (BUT YOU BETTER NOT TOUCH) / HAVING A PARTY / DETROIT MEDLEY - SHAKE - SWEET SOUL MUSIC
  11. very nice document indeed in any case
