Happy Birthday to the Boss

Yes, and now that he's had the hip replacement, I look forward to more flips while playing like in Giants Stadium last year!

 

"Keith Don't Go" is a cool Nils song.

 

But Bruce and Neil Young sure do make a great combo in concert (sorry for making another comment on a 2-year old post)

Helpless -

All Along the Watchtower -

Rockin' In the Free World (w/John Fogerty) -

 

But "Shine Silently" is better

 

A trip down memory lane for those that had the pleasure of seeing the Holiday Shows Bruce did in Asbury Park in 2000, 2001, 2003.

The full setlists for those magical shows:

2003 - http://www.backstreets.com/setlists2003NR.html

 

Have a boot of the 2000 show... some great stuff.

 

Samples from all the songs on the new album can be heard here:

Especially if Neil plays his song from Philadelphia, which is superior to Bruce's Oscar winner from the same film.

 

Checked that out ESJ. Some of them sound good. But it's hard to tell from 30 seconds.

 

Like the Eagles, the Hero Of The Common Man . . . .will have a "new" collection exclusively sold at Wal-Mart.

I'm sorry but this really disappoints me. I've been conducting a personal boycott of Wal-Mart for more than a decade for many reasons, not the least of which is its antiunion policies. I can't believe Bruce is selling out like this. Fortunately, I have all these songs so wouldn't have any need to buy it but it's what it shows about him that really bothers me.
