Ken Gargett Posted August 26, 2013 Author Share Posted August 26, 2013 ps - interesting that this tour is apparently just australia and one in nz. normally we can tacked on. perhaps he really did enjoy himself as much as he said. i did read where a rolling stone journo who has covered him for 30 years said that the aussie concerts earlier this year were the best he has done. eaasy to believe. the melbourne one i saw was unbelievable. still get thrills and goosebumps.

Isotonic Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 Just got confirmation of my stage front tickets. Can't wait for the great man. If Silvio Dante makes the trip it would really top it off. I can only hope this tour is as good as everyone says his 2013 shows were Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbo1 Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 Great list from '85 Ken, brings back a lot of memories......saw him in Tampa, March '12, still puts on a great show........was a little sad during tenth avenue freeze out when the big man wasn't there, but had one of his sons come play. enjoy the show!

Ken Gargett Posted August 26, 2013 Author Share Posted August 26, 2013 This was fun. I ran through the shows I can remember going to (and have bootleg recordings of ). I came up with this. Brings back alot of nice memories. The 1988 show is probably the most fun one I've been to after this year's Melbourne show. 88 he also had a horn section with him and did a lot of spontaneous stuff, just like he's doing now. The 1992 show was the first ever with the new band after E-Street and sucked. The only time I've actually seen Bruce annoyed on stage. With the band, the sound, the effects not working etc... interesting yours shows 'do you love me' because i can remember him playing that in brizzy in 85 as clear as if it was today but not shown. i gather he got grumpy in sydney in 03 because everything broke down. sound, stage, rain, you name it. wasn't there but friends said far from his best. the first melbourne one in 03 was terrific (nowhere near as good as the one in 13) but he was not best pleased as that was the day the states invaded iraq. i would have sworn that he kicked off with 'war' but apparently not?? and for a while, he kept trying to get the crowd involved as he seemed to think they were not - in truth, they were but the stadium back then was huge and the way they had it set up gave that impression. 13 at rod laver could not have been more different. also, think it is clarence's nephew, not son. but might be wrong.

Ken Gargett Posted August 27, 2013 Author Share Posted August 27, 2013 interesting that the notes above have 'because the night' as a patti smith cover. - "I'm on Fire Because the Night (Patti Smith cover) Rosalita (Come Out Tonight)". i always thought it was a bruce original that he gave to smith and she reworked it a bit. it was intended for the 'darkness' album but didn't make the cut and bruce knew smith who was recording nearby so offered it to her (this could be myth but it is what i have always understood). it appears on 'the promise' which is basically a double album of the best of what didn't make 'darkness'. the song i would most like to hear, that i have yet heard, is 'for you'! outstanding.

Ken Gargett Posted August 27, 2013 Author Share Posted August 27, 2013 candy's room been a huge fave since the first day i heard it. and he played it earlier this year. amazing. my fave ever soprano's moment was when sil and tony are in the club waiting for christopher and he is late. lots of 'where the F is he?' etc, as you'd imagine. finally he walks in and tony looks at him and says 'where the F you been? why the F are you so late?' christopher doesn't miss a beat - "highway's jammed with broken heroes on a last chance power drive". sil and tony just go, 'oh, okay' and shrug and move on. nothing else said. no reference to its origins. priceless.
