Due to the passing of Danny Federici this afternoon, Springsteen's concerts scheduled for Friday in Ft. Lauderdale and Saturday in Orlando are being postponed. 711826@blogcritics.org Fri, 18 Apr 2008 01:06:51 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2008/03/27/082606.php#comment-711821 Thank you so much for this great review. I am seeing the concert in Sunrise Florida tonight as a birthday gift.I waited over 30+ years to see them. I have listened to this wonderful music since I was young growing up in NJ and never had the pleasure of seeing them in concert. I am now so excited about it I am not sure how I am going to get any work done tomorrow while watching the clock until the show time. Thanks again from someone just surfing the web to see what I had in store, what songs Bruce was playing and how the tour is going. 711821@blogcritics.org Fri, 18 Apr 2008 00:28:12 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2008/03/27/082606.php#comment-705571 Now *this* is a good review, especially if a good review makes me feel really bad about missing a show. I've left many, many Springsteen shows thinking, knowing, I had just seen the best rock n' roll that there had ever been, or ever would be. I've "Bruuuuced" so loud and long that I couldn't speak for two days. My ears have buzzed happily for three days, even though they know deafness is a little closer. A concert like is a celebration of the sheer joy of being alive. This was obviously such a show. Thanks for this very personal, poignant review. Bruce is more than a national treasure. He is a human treasure. Thank God for Bruce Springsteen. 705571@blogcritics.org Thu, 27 Mar 2008 17:56:13 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2008/03/27/082606.php#comment-705515 By all accounts you got one of the best setlists of the tour. I've got Portland tomorrow and Seattle on Saturday and I can't wait! Nice report sir. -Glen 705515@blogcritics.org Thu, 27 Mar 2008 11:32:43 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2008/03/27/082606.php#comment-705497 Jet--I didn't have the same traffic problems as others, apparently. I arrived in Columbus early, met up with my daughter, and left my car on the other side of campus. And you're right, Springsteen giving a great concert is a given. 705497@blogcritics.org Thu, 27 Mar 2008 09:50:51 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2008/03/27/082606.php#comment-705496 great review of THE show of the tour so far. what a freakishly great setlist. 705496@blogcritics.org Thu, 27 Mar 2008 09:38:07 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2008/03/27/082606.php#comment-705493 Nicely done Gary, but you left out the most interesting part. How the hell did you get in and out through traffic with an OSU game going just down the street? Springsteen giving a great concert was a given! 705493@blogcritics.org Thu, 27 Mar 2008 09:26:43 EDT
