Great show, I am still a little too fried to give an in depth review (4 hours and 10 mins home but totally worth it!). The ironic thing is that even though there couldn't have been more than 10,000 in the building and the crowd seemed to have been whittled down to his core audience, we got the most hits oriented setlist I think I have seen.
Had a slightly tougher time bargain hunting, apparently because so few tickets had been sold and a bit more competition than Monday but I made it in in time. The plan was to grab my same spot facing the side PA and screen but since that area had no tickets sold at all they weren't letting people back there and I had to stay in my same section this time. |

Well,the Tour Of California (subdivision leg) is now in the books. What can I say except:Sometimes it really is a Sweet Charmed Life. ...I was half kidding with the whole Thunder Road/Jungleland thing.I was fully prepared to come back and say it was a great show even if he didn't play them. So what happens, he opens with TR and not only plays Jungleland,but does Meeting to go with it. Combine this with my requests for TOL and RITS in Oakland,which he played back to back. I'm either the luckiest bastard on the planet or Bruce is a regular Rocks Off lurker.LOL. But it's been a fun ride. Great way to close it out.If he gets anywhere west of the rockies in the future I'm going. But now at least I can finally get around to seeing Shine A Light. Not a bad consolation at all. |

Yeah Brilliant Disguise was good in Anaheim. I liked the way Soozie sang it with Bruce. Much better than Yoko Scialfa....IMHO. |

Kind of a bummer now that it is over isn't it, SCL??
Texas shows this weekend and then to the good old Southeast. I don't know anyone who is going to the Texas shows, but I think Charlotte and MRD8 are going to the later shows...
And then there is Gazza with his 3 show Dublin weekend and little Bruce tour in June....
Guess we just enjoy Bruce via our buddies commentaries and the boots...

Thanks for the uploads from Anaheim, Meg & Dan
Dan - is that your own recording? Really good.
That version of Ghost of Tom Joad has been much hyped in the last few days. It was justified. It's so good, its just getting to the stage where it's unfair.
Up there with 'Because The Night' as the most electrifying song of the entire tour. Someone get this Morello guy a weekend break to Dublin in May.

Yeah, I will work it on it some more when I get home Sunday though something else might turn up by then.
Posting it on a Springsteen board where people were asking for the show a few days before it happened would just be asking for trouble. |

Last To Die wasn't that bad and I can do without The Rising. Adam Raised a Cane would have been cool. But at least I heard that in Oakland on the first leg. |

Last To Die is horrid. The Rising is sublime & has deep meaning to those who lived through the tragic events. |

APRIL 13: DALLAS IS A JEWEL(backstreet.com)
T is for Texas, as Jimmie Rodgers sang, and T is for "Tenth Avenue Freeze-out," which opened up tonight's show in Dallas. This was the Magic tour's first stop in Texas, and they got a strong one -- Bruce in high spirits, great energy, fast pace, the band in fine form. After "Magic," it was a string of powerhouses, from "Trapped" through "She's the One." "Prove It All Night" and "Because the Night" were in there back-to-back, and though it's disappointing to see Nils' solo dropped from "Prove It," it's probably the right call to save it up for him to wail on "Because the Night."
With Patti still absent, Bruce's tales of havoc back home are growing. This time he told the crowd that as he was leaving, "the black helicopters were hovering, the pot cookies were coming out of the oven... and all my favorite clothes were going up on eBay!" Patti'll take care of that.
For anyone who never quite felt "Girls in Their Summer Clothes" as an encore opener, tonight it moved to the main set and felt good after "The Promised Land." From there it was on to the tour premiere of "Independence Day," featuring Nils on pedal steel but remaining quite true to the recorded River arrangement -- very nice. And the five-pack was back, after Bruce broke it up in Anaheim, "Devil's Arcade" and "The Rising" reclaiming their spots. "Out in the Street" was a setlisted possibility once again, but Bruce went back to closing the main set with "Badlands."
In the encore, the always welcome pairing of "Meeting Across the River" into "Jungeland" was a reprise from the last show in California. The surprise came a couple songs later, when Bruce brought out a special guest. With Bon Jovi set to play this very venue on Monday night, Jon got quite a warm-up, taking the first verse of "Glory Days" and trading vocals with Bruce throughout the rest of the song. Springsteen called it "a double shot of Jersey," and JBJ followed up by telling the crowd, "You're in trouble!" It's not likely that other Springsteen audiences will be in similar hot water; checking out Bon Jovi's itinerary, it looks like their paths won't cross again on this tour.
After Mr. Jovi waved goodbye, a whole gaggle of "guests" were on stage for the next song. Earlier in the set, Springsteen had taken notice of a group of young girls in the pit, saying "We got a wild bunch over here!" Average age, he asked, "Ten? Eight?... Have any of you ever heard of a song called 'Born to Run'?" He was playfully chagrined at their repsonse (or lack thereof), and later decided to give them their moment with an audibled "Dancing in the Dark." The girls came up, their chaperones did too; someone else saw a window, and before you knew it it was practically a free-for-all. No less than 17 audience members were up on stage before security got wise, for a spotlight dance usually reserved for one or none. Hey, everything's bigger in Texas.
Next: One more in the Lone Star State, Monday night at the Toyota Center in Houston. |

Yes it is, 2nd show will be along in a few days unless someone else puts theirs up.
I spent most of the day in bed and started to feel like I was recovering but then I had to go out and do it again (not Bruce). Gotta go to work in 5 hours now. |
