Decided to hold off though. And buy closer to the date.

So it turns out my Ticketmaster account is banned from buying tickets (it would be nice if they just closed the account) due to a chargeback from 2021. I had tickets again but got error U103 with 3 different cards.

Fortunately my friend also had the verified code and was able to get our tickets... pit at face value.

Still screw you Ticketmaster.

I got a code for the 8/30 MetLife show... go into the queue with "2000+ ahead of you"... was able to get in to purchase after 6 mins and got two GA tickets (and they were about $120 with fees less than the first leg). I will try and trade the extra for another date. Apparently, two more MetLife shows will be announced.

I'm too damn old to stand in a pit to watch a show any more.

You better be standing up all night tomorrow!

I heard Portland is having weather issues. Is everything still good with your travel plans?

Well my flight is currently delayed. 🙄 But as far as I know everything is still a "go". I am staying less than a mile from the arena so I won't have any trouble getting there. I hope the show goes off as planned. 🤞

That's good. I've seen a lot of people say that their flights were flat out cancelled days in advance.

Despite recent bad weather, the show went off without a hitch. What an amazing show. He's still great. The last time I saw him, he was 50 -- younger than I am now. He is an old man now, but he still puts on a hell of a show. Tickets were hella expensive (face price), but totally worth it. Seats were amazing and totally unobstructed. Having trouble posting my pics but I will​​​​​​​

I saw the Seattle performance last week. Most of my Boss knowledge is from the ‘80s, but it was a great show (my first). My seats weren’t as good as Decker’s, though.

Very cool interview with Springsteen about the making of Nebraska, which he considers his masterpiece.

It was a good piece. I like the owner's of the house let them go back for the interview. The farm he lives on now is only a mile and half from that.

The outdoor shows aren't getting rescheduled until at least summer 2024. The indoor ones, maybe they can do dates in October before the Canada run.

They're apparently announcing new European dates next week... I wonder if that gets hold off on for now.

That's a bummer. PUD can be pretty bad and of course aggravated by stress. His tour schedule would be tough for a rock star half his age. I hope he's able to rest and recover.

Yeah I'm figuring it won't be until the Philly rescheduled dates in August 2024. Syracuse might sneak in if he does the makeup arena shows before Canada. JMA Dome is fully enclosed and right down the Thruway from the Albany show.

No kidding. They have done 66 shows in 51 locations since Feb 1. I think Swift’s done 58 and Beyoncé 49 in far fewer locations. The scale of Bruce’s shows is not anywhere never those two but he’s 76 and traveled to 58 places in a little over seven months.

Add me to the list of twice delayed shows, the Albany show was originally scheduled for March, then got bumped for September, and now bumped until not sure when yet.

I keep hoping he will realize that he can minimize all the traveling by doing a Las Vegas residency.

It hit me today we may be screwed in Syracuse unless Bruce makes an exception for us.

After SU bball season in the spring they are replacing all of the stadium benches with actual seats. JMA Dome capacity is dropping from (roughly) 49000 to 42000. Some of the seats sold won't exist after. At that point what choice is there but cancellation?
