Some magic from France

And some more, listen out at 2.45 for young Bruce.

And there is a 22 minute interview about Wrecking Ball here. He also speaks briefly of Clarence
 
"At night sometimes it seems you can hear the whole damn city crying. Blame it on the lies that killed us, blame it on the truth that ran us down. You can blame it all on me Terry, it don't matter to me now. When the breakdown hit at midnight there was nothing left to say. I hated him then and I hated you when you went away."

So completely, utterly amazingly perfect. And yet, it's still only my 4th favourite Springsteen song ever.

Yeah, that's the best bit of the song, the end of the bridge building to the solo. All of it comes together and erupts with brilliance.

Oh I forgot about you UpForGrabs, my inspiration for this thread :thumbsu:

I have gone back numerous times over your thread and read your descriptions. They are perfect.

Bruce played the Hard Rock London Calling (same concert where the Hyde Park DVD is taken from). Played for 3 hours and 11 minutes before the British Police thought it would be a good idea to pull the plug on Bruce AND Paul McCartney because they went past the curfew. What a joke.

Ripped out Take Em As They Come for only the 10th time. The guy who made the sign had written the countries in which he had requested it in, here it is.

 
Empty Sky (solo acoustic) - yes please!

Having Tom Morello guest on Tom Joad has been a masterstroke. You're right about If I Should Fall Behind, very moving performance.

I prefer the studio of Empty Sky to be honest.

Yeah very moving, amazing performance.

Tom is also very good on Death To My Hometown.
 
Keep me in the loop Cruyff. I just sometimes get bloody jealous reading those set lists wondering if we are going to experience them!
