The only member of the 92-93 band who fit that bill was Crystal Talifero.
In a similar vein, he played it too safe on TGOTJ tour. Had he been more daring, we would've had the Devils & Dust tour about 10 years earlier. Whether or not you liked that tour, you've got to admit that Bruce pushed himself artistically there more than on any other tour.
Yes and no...the d&d tour to me was a half baked attempt to tone his stage show.to bring the songs back to the fore front of the show instead of a army of people on stage running around playing horns,guitars and singing...I mean I'm still waiting to see shows
that are half acoustic and half electric.
