Piscataway Mike- Springsteen ?
- Thread starter RUEd
- Start date
Locally, I'll be attending the shows at MSG, Newark and Philly. While on vacation, I'll also be going to the concert in Phoenix. In addition, when in the Valley of the Sun, I'll be attending a NASCAR race and at least a half-dozen Cactus League games. Really looking forward to it. In the past, I've planned vacations around Grapefruit League spring training games in Florida, but never in Arizona.

Then don't worry about it. He's 66 years old still putting on high energy 3.5 hour rock shows. He's a NJ guy and proud of it. I thought we wanted to "Fence the Garden." SMH.
Ok..how the hell did you get all these tickets? and do you have the name of a good ticket broker you use?

strange things happen with tickets whenever he comes around.... ticket brokers were taking orders for specific sections and rows before any tickets were on sale, even advance fan club sales.....
That is an A+ set list, especially considering the River is not one of my favorite albums of his.
The super-duper Bruce geeks were probably not too happy with it, however. I'm just a super geek, and I really wish I was there.

The general reviews on Backstreets were outstanding. I listened to a periscope stream for a while, and they sounded great. They seem to be on a mission to recreate that 1980-81 energy. Tough to do when Bruce is 66 and the others are mostly in their 60's, but they still put on a high energy show.
For this tour, I was only able to purchase tix for the Philly show. However, I have a circle of friends who are diehard Springsteen fans. They were able to get tix for me. I've often gotten tix for them over the years. A classic case of "you scratch my back, I'll scratch yours." It's the way many long-time Bruce fans are able to get tix (and avoid scalpers) for shows they can't get tix themselves.
I just scored two for MSG next Wednesday at face from an old friend. Similar back-scratching arrangement. Cannot wait.
