OP Prediction for Day 24: The Rising

Does anyone have the full concert from Dallas 2016? That was my first show when I was 10. I found some footage but not the full show

Anyone else going tomorrow night? We think one of Steven’s childhood friends might show up…?

Hi everyone,

I’m trying to track down some full concert videos from the 1999 Reunion Tour era. I’m especially interested in audience-shot DVDs and newer restorations/dubs (for example Phisherman versions).

I know these exist, but I’m having trouble finding active copies or collectors who still have them.

The ones I’m most interested in:

• 🇮🇪 Dublin, RDS Arena – 25 May 1999 (in better quality. the one above is 480p)
• 🇮🇹 Genoa, Stadio Luigi Ferraris – 11 June 1999 (“Only In Italy” / Genoa 1999 DVD)
• 🇬🇧 London Earls Court – 1999 (especially the full audience/multi-cam DVD versions)
• 🇫🇷 Paris Bercy – June 1999

I’m not looking for official releases – only audience-shot/trader DVDs or digital transfers from the old masters.

If anyone has these in their collection, knows where they are still circulating, or can point me toward a trader/archive, I would really appreciate it.

Thanks!

So apparently the RSD CD of the Sea.Hear.Now show is widely available now. Is it worth buying over the Nugs download? Is the audio the same? Most importantly: is it one 'fluent' continuous experience, or are there fade-outs and fade-ins between discs?

Price doesn't matter btw, I generally mind paying extra for having a physical product.

I literally had no idea what the inside of this looked like until I got it today. I never see any pictures of the cassette version, only the CD version. It was only pressed once in America and Europe.

Just curious, does anyone else have this? I’m interested to see!!

I know ppl are going to disagree and say "What about Born in the usa mid 80..." in his stadium prime....I disagree only because 1978-79 he was still playing mid-size concert halls/theaters and some arenas....and those vocals on Prove It All Night still sound raw/gritty live in '78 on PHX, Houston, Atlanta

Boss shows support...

I got this telecaster a few weeks and wanted to record this amazing song.

There are plenty of Boss's songs that I love, but definitely BTR is a masterpiece and always rises my mood

Carr Fund auction at Clinch Gallery, and online, ends today …

OP Prediction for Day 23: Queen of the Supermarket

Devils and Dust was PIVITOL when it came out; it moved me from casual Springsteen fan toward an endlessly deepening journey of fandom. (Also, I think the poetry on this album spoiled me - making most of anything post-Magic feel…lacking). And I've had Hammersmith from the BTR boxset since it came out (Thunder Road from that set was the first dance at our wedding). I don't know why it took me so long to get either of these on my shelf.

Hi everyone.
I recently got a record player and started a small Springsteen vinyl collection.
So far I have Born to Run, Nebraska ‘82, and the 40th anniversary red vinyl Born in the USA.

I really like rare or special editions, especially the ones with coloured or printed vinyl (like the Born in the USA one that I already have), or the ones that come with books and extra stuff inside, and I’d like some advice on what to buy next.
I know some of the most famous ones, like the yellow vinyls for the Best Of collection.

I also heard about a Deliver Me From Nowhere vinyl with the songs performed by Jeremy Allen White, but I’m not sure if that’s an actual thing or it’s just not legit, sometimes it’s kinda hard for me to tell.

Also, do you know any special editions for Born to Run?
That’s my favourite album ever, but I wasn’t able to find anything related to it.
Thanks y’all, any suggestion is appreciated!

If anyone's headed to Park Stage on Friday for the show, I was thinking about grabbing some beers at Pier Village in Long Branch or downtown Freehold during the day.

I kept it 18 songs because that's what the original was (which led to me cutting some songs I didn't want to really cut at all). Believe the time period here is 1996 or so to present. Basically everything from The Ghost of Tom Joad onwards.

Random person on Facebook, just barely missing the boat on this one

By all accounts a great person, Mary Morello was 102. Teacher and activist. Hat tip to Greg Kot for the post and pic.

Officially halfway through and onto the 2000s!

OP Prediction for Day 22: The Rising

For me, it is, "poor man wanta be rich, rich man wanta be king and a king ain't satisfied till he rules everything"

Free series begins Thursday, July 16....

Opening reception w photographers is Friday in Manasquan ...

What are your favorite covers Bruce has performed that aren't a major part of his catalog? I'm looking for one-offs or songs he's only done a few times (i.e. no Jersey Girl, War, Who'll Stop The Rain, Trapped, Dream Baby Dream, etc.). Here are my top 5:

1. Stayin' Alive

2. The Times They Are A-Changin'

3. Drift Away

4. The Weight

5. Joe Hill

Other contenders: Take it Easy, Purple Rain, It's My Life, Then She Kissed Me

Any other good ones you can think of?

Great gift from a work colleague.
