I love his shows, I love his shows, I love his shows!! Too bad I'm a broke mutherfocker who can't afford to see Springsteen's toenail, let alone his concert.

You maka me envious. I just coaxed my wife to fork over $228.60 from our savings for two tickets for the show in Hartford CT. She said maybe.

I think it ended up being $250ish for two GA tickets for this show.

the total from Ticket-Tron (thru Springsteen's official site) gave me a total of $228.60. I think that included tax.

I'm late to comment on this, but I think the latest album is his best in a long time. I didn't listen to it until this summer.

What's great about Springsteen's show, as shown in that playlist above, is that he doesn't just throw the new album down your throat. He plays a lot of the older, more loved songs in his repetroire (sp), like "Working ON The Highway" for example. Too bad he didn't play "Cadallic Ranch" or "The Promised Land," which were great on his concert album from the 80s. Maybe he'll play them for other shows.

He's the only artist I know of who's as good as he was in his "glory days". I saw him on the Magic Tour and he was as good as he was in 1980.

Amazing. I've never been to a rock concert
, but if I were to go, he'd be my first without a doubt.

I saw him early in the tour and he played maybe 10 new songs. They are not bad at all, but taking my wife to see him for the first time ended up being a slight disappointment (can't believe I just wrote that!). So many great songs by the wayside.
