Gotta Love Springsteen
Bruce Springsteen is doing "song requests" on his tour. Fans bring signs requesting tunes they want to hear. Bruce and the Band deliver.
 From BruceSpringsteen.net "During the sign collection phase, Bruce grabbed it, started to tuck it under his arm, and then realized who "this guy" was. The look on his face was utter disbelief and then laughter. It was precisely the reaction I'd hoped for. When Bruce grabbed another "Growin' Up" sign from a young boy, I knew we were golden. Eventually, my sign emerged from the pile and made its way to the microphone stand. Bruce showed it to the only member of the band who might actually know who "that guy" was. Steve struggled to contain his fits of laughter as Bruce announced to the audience, 'Who IS this guy'? The best part is that he never told the audience that it was him. It was like a private joke between myself, Bruce, and Steve."  (A short personal note to Stew Matthews -- Thank you for pointing me in the direction of the Boss. He puts on a helluva show...and....I got to hear Cadillac Ranch live...)

Thank you for these amazing photos. I love Bruce but was unable to go this time around. I saw him at Staples the opening night when they first built Staples really cool. I had 4th row center and the first two rows were literally given away to fans in the nosebleed seats. They were so thrilled and the energy at the stage was amazing.
They play their hearts out. Unlike anything I have ever seen.

Thanks so much for sharing! This sounds awesome. I absolutely LOVE his live shows. Possibly the best I have ever seen. And I still can't believe how great he looks for his age. Like, wow.

I saw him this week in Chicago. I was hoping he'd play the Clash's London Calling or even one the Ramones tracks he's doing this tour.....but not this time. It was a great show nonetheless and probably the best crowd I've seen at the United Centre. I think he's up to about 90 different songs so far this tour........ I don't know how they remember them all! Glad you enjoyed the show you saw.

 ......I'm occasionally allowed on the web without adult supervision!The show this week was good but the only downside of this 'bring a sign along' approach is that you can't see the show for all the bloody signs being waved about I'll send you a link to my photos from the show.

 You know I don't look like that.It is a guy called Frank Gallagher and he is my favourite character in a UK show called 'The Shameless'. It is based in Manchester - a place I don't care for which makes the show even better. You should be able to view some of it on youtube or Channel 4. I don't know whether the humour will quite work for an American audience. I like it and it reminds me of a few people....... I'm not going to be drawn any further on the T-Shirt discussion .
