Who is going down for the gig on Saturday and where are you all staying?

 

My mate and I are leaving early Friday morning and are based at Caerphilly. A ?4 train trip to the stadium.

 

I am so excited!

Saw him a couple of weeks ago at the Emirates stadium.

 

It was my 6th time seeing him (4th with the E-Street) and it was probably the best, not least as it was the first gig I'd taken my son to.

 

You will have a fantastic time. Guaranteed!!

I went to see him at the Emirates (Saturday night). First time i have been to see him and it is amazing. Band were great. They were on for about two and a half hours.

 

You'll have a great time.

I'm heading down on Saturday afternoon. A couple of hours in the business lounge should get the voice loosened off nicely. We're staying in a dodgy looking hotel a short walk from the stadium. It has a disco in the basement, so that should be interesting!!

I was at Bruce @ The Emirates on the Friday - great gig.

 

Millenium Stadium with the roof shut should be great.

Wow!

 

What a gig.

 

Roof closed but 27 songs in just under 3 hours.

 

Great hospitality at Caerphilly and a truly awesome gig.

 

First time in the Stadium - and it too is awesome.

 

Bruce is THE Boss and has one of the greatest back catalogues to call upon.

 

I am still on a high after it!

Typo - fingures moving slower than my brain:p

 

However the wee hotel across the water from the stadium was a nice place to spend the afternoon so alchohol was an influence but didnt spoil my enjoyment!

I just looked at the set list. Brilliant stuff.

 

The opening song (From small things, mama...) is my favourite 'obscure' Bruce track. And you were lucky in the encore to have Jungleland and Thunder Road.

 

I keep saying to mates that see him 3 or 4 times on the one tour that they must be daft.

 

I'm beginning to wonder!

The encore of Jungeland, Thunder Road & Born To Run was amazing. And then onto Rosalita & American Land was tremendous. I must admit to not not being familiar with the opening track - and it takes balls to open with a lesser known number!

 

The energy they put in and the sound they creat is well worth the money. My only regret is that he didnt come to Scotland.
