Bruce Springsteen Tour 2013
Delighted to hear Springsteen is coming to Kilkenny - now there's a venue I can get to without expensive flight/accommodation costs. Plenty of notice, too, for concerts at the end of July - not so for LC concerts, unfortunately.
So I am going to raid my LC kitty for Brucie!
After all a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush...

Re: Bruce Springsteen Tour 2013
Hi Ann. Marvellous that unstoppable-force Bruce is doing extra Irish dates! I was going to take a break from him this year but then he announced Cardiff (my closest city), so not-going would have been a bit crazy. I have lost confidence in the sound being adequate venue-wide at his outdoor gigs though, so will be taking the day off to ensure I am near the front.

Re: Bruce Springsteen Tour 2013
Yes, Diane, same with me! Couldn't resist ... The sound was fine in the RDS, but then that's an "intimate" venue! Anyway I'm happy to have secured tickets without any fan club/pre-sale palaver.Diane wrote:

Re: Bruce Springsteen Tour 2013
Hi all,
Bruce Springsteen started off his Australian tour last night 14th March in Brisbane and will be there again tonight performing as I type this. Unfortunately, I never made it down there. I thought I’d post a few reviews and videos from last night’s show. They all give glowing reports and some good photos. The concert went for over 3 hours.
This is a man at the top of his game, defying his 63 years and displaying the energy of a man one third his age:

http://www.heraldsun.com.au/entertainme ... 6598056848 - This one made me laugh - Australian vegemite is like salty Guinness!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2eXukt7fgU - Bruce crowd surfing – terrible sound – just watch

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2eXukt7fgU - Apollo Medley plus Bruce walks among the crowd and dances with them.
He's playing at the same entertainment centre that Leonard does but they seem to have put an extra stage 'thing' in the middle. It looks like everyone had a great time!
.... I can't imagine Leonard crowd surfing and dancing with everyone - mind you, if he did, we'd all be very gentle and caring with him

Re: Bruce Springsteen Tour 2013
The unlikely idea of Leonard Cohen crowd-surfing has made me laugh, Bev. Somebody would have to take care of his hat until he was returned safely to the stage. We would certainly be gentle with him.
Cheers, I'll save your links for later, too. (I am stuck on Basecamp's Andrea Schroeder Bowie cover right now!)

It will be interesting to hear what they say if and when Leonard finally comes down under!It is going to be tough for anyone to beat Bruce Springsteen for the tour of the year.

Re: Bruce Springsteen Tour 2013
Thanks for that link, Kush. It was a good award to receive!
I thought I'd keep going with Bruce's Australian Tour. The following videos are from the concert in Sydney 18th March 2013:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tb94082S5OI
My City Of Ruins
(nice intro and later band 'roll call' including a 'moment' for Clarence) .....tight trousers!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fpoBEi8ZvpM
Shackled And Drawn
(video deliberately dark for the first minute and a half. Great band line-up near the end!)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zP3ig75dn2A
American Land
(hummm ....I wonder if they need another violinist!!)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aZ4HKxhrQug
Thunder Road
(Bruce first thanks everyone for coming and talks about hunger relief organization in Sydney.
Jake’s sax solo at the end is great!)
