Anyone heading to this? Looking forward to it myself, he puts on some show, you get your moneys worth anyway.
Flannerys Coppers afterwards for the first time in about a year, nice one. :rolleyes: 
Havenāt made the call on this one yet. Would love to get to the gig in Bilbao on the 26th at the Catedral, now that would be the business.
Fuck off back to wal-mart Bruce you Cunt/former man of the people .Fuckin Traitor
Bruce is a hero, legend, god.
Iāll be there.
Springsteenās a sell out plain and simple. I canāt stand the cop hating cunt.
I never got him I must say. His music never did anything for me.
See him live farmer, just once.

Not really much point when I donāt like his music.
I have a ticket but havenāt decided if Iāll go.
If its pissing down, Iāll definitely be blanking it
Best live act I have ever seen. No question.
Even if you are not that gone on him - he is worth checking out live.
Whatās his link with Wal Mart?
As you were on at 2am I may be waiting a while for this reply.
Heās good live, alot of energy. Only problem is that his back catalogue is so big that there will allways be a few songs that you mightnt have heard of.
Best band ive seen live, toss up between Prodigy and Arcade Fire, both were amazing!
No one puts on a show like the Boss, its astonishing the energy he has.
This weekend is Boss Timeā¦

Heard a lot about Arcade Fire as a live act, and thought/think Funeral is an utterly fantastic album, but was disappointed frankly when I saw them in Phoenix Park last year.
REM in Ardgillan Castle, Pixies in Phoenix Park and The Pogues in RDS Christmas 2007 are my three favourite gigs.

The man has always been seen as a champion of the working man etc , only to turn around & get into bed with walmart . Shame on you Bruceā¦

Yeah that Arcade Fire gig in the Phoenix Park wasnāt great. I saw them at Glastonbury 2007 and in the Olympia and they were excellent. Their bext ever though was Electric Picnic in 2005. Crazy fooking gig.
For overall enjoyment the Boss last year in the RDS is my number 1 with Arcade Fire in EP a very close second
I remember reading an interview with Springsteen in Rolling Stone in September 2002 (I think) and he was talking about September 11th and how he didnāt want to record for a while until one day he was in his garden and some guy was walking past and shouted to him āCome on Bruce, America needs youā so he went into the studio the next day or something.
Horribly cringey.

It was some fucking album that he came out with though, irregardless of the cringeworthy nature of it. The Rising is a belter of an album.
Springsteen is very over rated in my opinionā¦ 2 or 3 great tracks but all the energy and jumping around stage cant mask the mediocracy of most of his workā¦ The river is a cracking tune tho.
