I think the best shows I've seen him do were in East and West Berlin in 1988, Brixton and Miami on the Tom Joad tour [...]

You were at Weissensee in 1988?? Awesome!! The Brixton "Joad" shows also were incredible. I have East Berlin on DVD and Brixton on CD (Crystal Cat). Wow!!

Indeed I was. One of the best audiences ever, and a very emoptional show too - for obvious reasons. The sound of 50,000 (or was it more) East Germans singing Born in the USA was probably what put the first cracks in the Wall.

50,000? Make that 200,000, mate...can I help you with the DVD?

Ah, sorry, meant to write 500,000.

Got the DVD. Not the full version. Some of it was censored, I think.

Video of tonight's Stockholm opener, "No Surrender" (again, wait for the commercial to finish):

Yes. The spoken intro to "Chimes Of Freedom" was censored/cut out - for obvious reasons.

The reunion tour in Raleigh 1999, the Rising tour in Miami 2002 (Bono and Dave Stewart showed for that one) Magic tour last year in Ft. Laud. Excuse this abbreviated answer as most time lately has been spent in the "Cool Reggae" thread ..great great moosic my mohn!!

If it helps, Bruce's Greensboro shows in that time frame were :
28-2-81, 18-1-85, 19-1-85.

(no show there in 1977)

Huge Bruce fan, but only 1 show seen, The Rising tour in Giants Stadium. My second favorite Bruce album in the only place to see him. I'm hoping to get tix to go see him there again later today!!! It was a very surreal experience, like being at a religious event. I can't even put it into words really. After all my Stones concerts, I'd probably have to say it was the next best concert I've ever seen.

Say, that iTunes only live EP Bruce did, that's not available anywhere on a promo disc or something is it? I know there's the PBS exclusive thing I have to pick up - just haven't justified the $100 price tag on it yet. Same with the Neil Young box in this economy.

If you are referring to last year's "Magic Tour Highlights" EP, that was in fact released on official Columbia/Sony promo CDR's in both the US and the Netherlands, but these would probably set you back a few hundred bucks each.

I can see that this Promo CDR is going to be very hard to find!!

Nope.. I did not see the E. Street Band in any of the shows. However, I think it was the Police I saw during that time frame. Of course - I apologize for the misinformation.

Yes Rock concerts in the Carolinas can be exhilarating. I think performances held on a Friday or Saturday night can really change the dynamics of a concert feel.

Anyone lucky enough to score tix to the final show at Giants Stadium? Seemed to sell-out almost instantly....

Next, Bonnaroo this Saturday night.
