Actually it was 2007 as a few of us SPLers were there.  I saved a PM from that date in 2007.  I sent Beth whom I had not yet met, a review of the show.We had heard through the rumor mill that Danny had cancer and it was bad.  One of our inner circle gave a ride to one of the moving men who moved stuff for the band from place to place. The moving man confirmed the rumor but our buddy didn't give it much weight. Anyway when they started playing and Danny was prominent in a lot of these songs... well everyone in the place knew.  There wasn't a dry eye in the house.  When they started to play 'This Hard Land' I lost it, when 'Sandy' followed, I broke down like a little baby.

This show was a great tribute to Phantom Dan Fedeerici. RIP Danny.

It appeared to me that most of the floor knew or suspected. We were near the soundboard where it wasn't so packed.  So much of my life has been interwoven with Bruce and the E Street Band.  Even the review of this show played a big part in my life story. It felt like I lost a friend. I was very sad before the show and very sad after the show.

I felt like this again this year when I realized Bruce was just an entertainer and all those songs that he wrote, all those songs that spoke to me,,, the political protests, anti-war, for the common man, the factory workers, etc, were just to make money.  That made me just as sad.  Then I felt suckered... now I'm just angry. Angry at him and angry at myself for being suckered.

Boston If I recall was the last full show but he guested a few songs at a show in 08 not long before his passing.

I remember that show in Boston, I had no idea but there was something in the air. I remember saying to my companion at the time something was up with Danny. It was definitely emotional. Also the album lyrics to Sandy made a rare appearance...

One of the tour photographers takes a photo of the guy with the jacket.

From Stan G @ Spring-Nuts

Not the victory but the action; Not the goal but the game; In the deed the glory

Thanks for all your postings.

Good to see Trapped played more often. Dirty Water is a nice addition. Fingers crossed that they'll stay with a wildcard song to kick off the encore.

I attempted to go back on Backstreets to look at the setlist thread and see what other people thought. No one on the thread was there but were confident that it was an uninspired, terrible show that ruined the legacy of Springsteen. Like every show of every tour since 1999.

Historically - with a few exceptions that were almost always produced by fan outcry - every show ‘they’ attended was a unique historical mostest bestest greatest and if you weren’t there you were a loser night, while shows they missed were always just another - Bruce is ALWAYS GREAT BUT - snooz-fest you could see duplicated any place at any (yawn) time.

I have always said and always felt that any place in the world - not just in the US or on the east coast - Springsteen could have one of those one-off nights that has the set list, crowd and energy that made it unique, stand out and be extraordinary. (And I don’t mean Flynn Nugs marketing reviews.) There was a reason that THE longest show he ever played was in the home of McReindeer Burgers 😬 and not ultimately Jersey, Boston or Philly.  

True story:

At a Tunnel show in NY, pre-show, in our seats early, the first people who came to sit down anywhere near us (directly in front), were 2  young women.   My friend and I, very exuberant about the show just said hi, and asked if this was their first Springsteen show?  They just looked at us (we were around 40) especially the blonde, as if we were two elderly creeps asking to buy their panties.  We grimaced and gave each other an OoKaaaaaay look and rolled our eyes.  About 10 minutes later, a fellow walks in and starts talking to them.  We recognized him and said ‘Hey, Charlie’.   It was Charlie Cross.  Had previously met him at a NY Backstreets party.  We talked for about 2 minutes when he pointed to the blonde and said ‘have you met my sister?’  My friend and I just smiled broadly, extended a pleasant ‘nice to meet you’ response, and watched the now identified and exposed stuck-up little hens squirm in their seats in front of us all night.   I have (had) been a paid subscriber to Backstreets since 1984.  But that incident on 57th road introduced me to the Backstreets Attitude Latitude.   I just take most of that cackling with a grain of laughing gas.   The bootleg and international record release information in the magazine WAS very handy in them early days of the frontier.

Q2

Rambling, after a night with the Jersey Devil.

I LOVE that story. It's always so weird in this fandom - it seems a lot more unhinged than some fandoms. I don't get the critique of a "static setlist," especially if you're only going to one show. Or none! This show is set up to tell a story, as have all the shows. I saw one guy saying, "They're just a bunch of random songs that don't even make sense." And I'm like, "The entire show is about mortality and losing people. Every song is about that. Why is that hard to see?"
