Bruce Springsteen

[Gasometer]

Any ideas on what the requests were for S.Africa No 1?

Yeh I am happy with 'Death 2 MH'

Don't think I have heard 'The River' live in the three shows I have seen in Melb.

 

[Cruyff14]

There were no requests.

River was played at HR1.

 

[Gasometer]

No requests...??? Did he just ignore them Cruyff14 ?

 

[ManWithNoName]

Pete Seeger's passed away. Reckon that'll have an impact on setlists.

No doubt he will say and play some tribute(s) to Pete.

Some nice photos of Bruce taking in the sites of Cape Town. I wonder if he will do that in Oz. See his website.

Looks like the big band can belt just about anything out.

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

Still crowd surfing




bits and pieces from the concert.

 

[pjcrows]

We Shall Overcome will get a run at upcoming shows you'd think. And This Is Your Land.

 

[Gasometer]

So is that a run way outwards into the pit as opposed to the horse shoe stage?

 

[Cruyff14]

Same as Melbourne shows.

 

[paddy18]

Getting pretty tired of Waitin' on a Sunny Day, although it looks like it is here to stay in the setlist. Pity.

 

[Cruyff14]

It could rotate so well with Hungry Heart and Mary's Place.

The encores need a lot of work.

Shackled down is getting repetitive too. (Although Badlands and The Rising are exempt from that statement )

 

[pjcrows]

He can play whatever he wants at my shows.

Get what you're saying and it would still be great, but surely you understand where I'm coming from.

 

[pjcrows]

For sure - but he caters to his whole audience, and does it better than any artist IMO.

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

I don't know if this is a SAF tour thing or will be standard in Oz but I noticed this after i posted the set list. 2nd encore is acoustic

[RussellEbertHandball]

Pre first show presser

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

Ties that Bind played 2nd show

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

I've become a bit hooked on this the last few days. It shows a great song is a great song in any language and a great big band does it justice. From the Rock in Rio Festival in September last year.

How many shows are you doing mate?

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

From the SAF concert videos there is no Patti on stage. but there are still 18 up there on stage.

5 in the horn section + 4 percussion / backing singers = 9 +
Soozie, Charlie Nils, Bruce, Max, Tom, Stevie, Garry and Roy = 18
