Reply to "Steve Van Zandt talks about his journey with Bruce & the E Street Band and going solo once again"

I find it interesting, that they discussed the following:

"I think The Promise album of Darkness…outtakes that was released in 2010 proved my point about some of the songs that were left off being as good as, if not better, than the ones that were included. I thought, ‘Great, now they’re out there we might get to play some of ‘em live’, but their rehabilitation in Bruce’s eyes was only partial and none of them made it onto the set-list when we toured that year. I said to Bruce, ‘If there’s a God, you better look out because you’re going to be struck by lightning for taking all this shit for granted! Other people could have a career with the songs you’ve discarded!’ Bruce is crazy like that; sometimes he just doesn’t play his best stuff."

Steve is absolutely right here. Bruce missed a big opportunity, he should have played some of the outtakes regularly...
