Please give this the Archive Treatment! 2012-09-22 Bruce's Rain Delayed Birthday Bash by Ev2.

OatsTougher Than The Rest

The past two days, I've been listening to Bruce's Rain Delayed Birthday Bash by Ev2. I don't think this show gets its due and is one of his best shows. The band was nice and loose. The setlist was great, filled with rarities. It had the delay, the crowd was great and it was his Birthday. Heck, we even got cake. It had it all, definitely a top 50 and more than comparable to the recent St. Louis archive in terms of setlist and rarities. Even though the sound is very good, I'd love to see this get the same archive treatment that they gave St. Louis.

Tracks:
Out in the Street
The Ties That Bind
Cynthia
Badlands
Who'll Stop the Rain?
Cover Me
Downbound Train

"Oats, I'll second that for two reasons, one I was there and secondly and more importantly I was there with a friend (the English guy and his wife who you stood next too at MSG last year) who rather saddlingly has being diagnosed with terminal cancer...so I hope it is released and he gets to hear it...sad time."

David,

My thoughts and prayers go with you and your buddy. I'm so sorry to hear that bad news.

For now, I would give him this boot by Ern. It's a very good sounding matrix and we're lucky to have it. I believe Garry or Monte made nice artwork for it. If you need it. I can send it right away or send it directly to your pal.

Please extend my thoughts to both of them. I'm glad I was able to stand alongside them at the Garden.

Thanks Oats, a couple of years ago I sourced, ripped and did artwork for all the shows he had gone to over the years so for the moment he has the unofficial version..funnily enough he is off to NYC next week followed by Vegas so he is certainly making the most of what he has...
