You\'re right, I do complaign an awful lot...deal with it.  I wish there were more NJ shows and I express that verbally... As far as maning up, I do that every day when I choose to spend time with my wife and daughter rather than going out to the bar and getting pissed...

I think 80% of the male population on dot info are little crying baby bitches.  You guys whine more than most of us girls.   You whine more than me.  That\'s pretttttty pretttty bad.

To each his own... I\'d much rather see Bruce this summer than Phish... I\'d much rather drink Guinness than some IPA... I\'d much rather grab a slice of pie at Brother Bruno\'s (Wayne, NJ) that wait on line at any of the pizza joints on Wooster St....

Yeah, I know, I committed a .info sin by choosing something else over Phish or New Haven pizza. Get over it...

Unless they play SPAC or Albany, I\'m not coughing up ~$70 to see Phish either. I\'m in agreement with you here.

HA!!!!

Anyone have a video clip of Bruce trying to climb up on the piano during the half time show?  That got almost as big a laugh where I watched the SB as the crotch slide.

Sorry, but when was the last time you saw a 60 year old on stage with that much energy.  For a lot of people, the SB was the first time they saw him live and that\'s a shame.  The man used to put on marathon shows without relying on 15+ minute jams.  That being said, his shows still run close to 3 hours.

And that\'s exactly the type of comment that I\'d expect to hear from someone who\'s never seen or heard a Bruce show.  He/They are not a nostalgia act; it\'s not like going to see The Rolling Stones or Aerosmith who have basically played the same concert for the past 30 years.  Some highlights from this past tour

2008-05-07 (Bruce did a benefit and played two complete albums / Darkness On The Edge Of Town & Born To Run)

He also dusted off some gems from the past:
- Summertime Blues (Last Time Played 1982-05-29)
- Held Up Without A Gun (Last Time Played 1980-12-31)
- Good Rockin\' Tonight (Last Time Played 1981-02-16)
- And Then She Kissed Me (Last Time Played 1975-08-23)
- Mountain Of Live (Last Time Played 1975-12-31)

There\'s rumors that on this tour, he will take time out of the main set to play a complete album from his catalogue.

Not really dissing it.  If you go back to 00-01, I still made it know that I prefered J&M to anything on Wooster.  Now that I\'m back in NJ, I prefer a slice from a local joint rather than drive 1-1/2 each way for pizza (that I would most likely have to wait on line to get).  It\'s symantics.  When my wife came up for a SB party one year, she had some Sally\'s and didn\'t like it at all - the burnt cornmeal turned her off.
