Have a great time!! Caught the Boss on Hard Rock Calling last night via Palladia.

It was great!! He and Paul McCartney brought the house down with "Twist and Shout"

Yeah -

I'm still struggling with the fact that S. Florida is being overlooked this tour. I even wrote the editor at Backstreets.com for any help. I may have to travel and spend big bucks to catch this great tour.

You're in for a treat tonight. Since this is your first E Street band concert, please chime in tomorrow with some details of the event!

One other thing I would like to mention about the Hard Rock Calling concert is that Bruce only with the Professor nailed Thunder Road. Just piano and the Boss himself and a little harmonica playing.

If I knew a little earlier the offer would be engaged. New Brunswick would be interesting as well. Believe it or not, I'm in the middle of an underrated hurricane. I'm telling ya- the outer bands have punch.

Again Thanks-

This is a huge storm. Once out in open waters (Gulf) it's going to become a dangerous storm.

I hate to say this but I think there is a possibilty that Louisiana, Miss, Alabama, and Florida gulf coasts could get hammered again based on latest tracking models. Hopefully, that's not the case. As far as S. Florida is concerned, we should be spared. However, evrything is canceled tomorrow (schools, work, etc..). We should only receive 80-100 mph winds at the most. The forecast is still evolving.

Hey Chris and friends. Sorry for delay.It was a beautiful day for a show...warm, sunny and plenty of friends with liquor,lol. Really small crowd, about 30K. Surprising given a great natural setting that brought 88K to the 'stones and 75K for U2. But it made for a fantastic and intimate show. No flash, no fuss. Just 3.5 hours of great rock. Tight band, no flaws wonderful performance....hit the stage rockin' and never quit. Rock and poetry meets fantastic performance. Old and new, a bit of celtic (local flavour), solo performance to remember, but mostly just a great rock band connecting with the world. Just wonderful.
