That’s correct! I was in the Arena and for a second after Mary’s place you saw on the teleprompter that E street shuffle was next and then he started Trapped. And after 10th avenue Bruce didn’t let the band go and started himself the medley.Quote

Oh yeah, apparently Detroit Medley and Trapped were both audibles, not setlisted.
Agree last year the sound was better in the pit the only instrument what was way to loud was the bass. It really was annoying it even ruined some songs especially bij Born in the USA it was like hell. Some people which were by concerts in Dublin they also were complaining about the bass was way too loudQuote

We got Detroit Medley tonight in Amsterdam. Great setlist, bad sound. No surprise for the Johan Cruijff Arena, though I thought the Stones sounded a little better there last year).

I have been debating posting this for awhile now because I truly love Bruce. I have been to approximately 20-30 shows and always in the pit. Every show I have left I felt like I had been to a rock concert bordering on a religious experience. I couldn't wait until the next show. On this tour, while I loved the few shows I went to, that religious type experience was missing for me. The show was too orchestrated/synchronized for my liking. Every "dance" step was the same as the prior show, every word spoken, every little look by Bruce, every come on down Jake, join me Steven--they were all identical. Literally zero spontaneity. Having said that, the music was great and I really did enjoy it. It just lacked that "magic" for me that I used to feel at a Bruce show. And finally, the 3 stooges bit during Rosalita is so cringe worthy and exactly the same every show as well. Anyway, would I see him again, yes, but to me it's now much more like seeing a broadway show than a rock concert. But hey, that's just me.

Agreed to a certain extent. It used to be rock & roll church especially pre Born in the USA. After that, he's been hit or miss for me. I got lucky & saw an amazing show in 2016. This time I know what you mean. It was too mega with all the horns & singers. I prefer the more stripped down E Street & even that is a huge band in itself. I don't know if I'd cough up the big bucks to see him again. That being said, I did enjoy the show in February.

Ouch! He shouldn't be performing at 73. Go play with your grandkids or something.
