1. Listening to the album, does anyone think that The Wall might open the encores into Born in the USA like Rocky Ground did recently? The solo piano versions from years ago would work nicely as a solo slot.

    Or Lost in the Flood and The Wall midset?
  2. Originally posted by dylbagz:41 shots is a classic. Joad isn't as good as what I expected. Morello's solo doesn't translate onto the studio album particularly well at all. The mix is also considerably different to the live mix. Having seen it four times with Morello I have to say it wasn't as good as I expected. Down in the Hole and the Wall are seriously great pieces. Still not sure on Harry's Place. Just Like Fire Would is fun.


    Well... it holds the record for being Bruce's most profane song. The F bomb was used 3 times! LOL

    Anyway, HH is an enjoyable listen. It's not better than WB, but I wasn't expecting it to be.
  3. I find it enjoyable too. I just hope one or two of the new songs translate well into the live setting (excluding songs we've already seen). Not overly sure that they will though.
  4. I'am creating a Springsteen collection of the best audio recording (only complete concerts, no dvd rips) of each tour.

    For now I am looking for recordings of the Lucky Touch Tour. (yes, I know with that "other band", sorry for this )

    So hope someone have some info for me?
  5. Kick off is good
  6. i guess he was meaning the start of the tour .. probably hehe
    Stockholm -> Milano .. not bad places for Bruce hehe
    uhmmm nice back to back months that year at the Forum for me
    21-22 may U2
    20-21 june Bruce

    anyway i have to think a bit and rechecked that tour .. it's been a long while i don't pass through it

  8. Maybe this has already been posted (sorry, if it has) but I read somewhere that he is promoting this new album by having songs been played in an upcoming episode of The Good Wife.

    Thoughts on this?
  9. oops clutter

  10. reluctantly so we can avoid any confusion

    'kick off' is the title of a bootleg of the 6th june 1992 los angeles show, the first before an audience with the new band after only five days rehearsals. it used to be one of the easiest bootlegs to find online but though i found one quite quick earlier on the link was dead. The boot is sourced from an fm broadcast so the quality is very good but it has also been put out under several other titles.

    yes!!! that's the one! so frustrating when you can hear the similarity and not manage to find the right song in your head.

    thank you so much for putting my mind to rest!

    it's in fact almost too damn close (sounds like a rip-off to me...)
