Bruce could play alongside Andi as both are Born To Run. Igmc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Missed out on his last tour in 2013 so will be keeping an eye out for that one.

Definitely. We had the privilege of seeing him at Hammersmith in November 1975 in the two night "Is the world ready for Bruce Springsteen " tour. He came on just after 8 and was still going strong at 11.15 when we had to leave to get the tube home. The encore was around 30 minutes by then! He disappeared for a year or two after that, presumably he wasn't ready. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Red Hat Posted May 27, 2022 Report Share Posted May 27, 2022 Seen Springsteen a few times. Brilliant. Lets hope he comes to Bristol and he hasn't played here before so I reckon he will! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nebristolred Posted May 28, 2022 Report Share Posted May 28, 2022 Seeing as he hasn't announced any UK dates yet I'd imagine he's penned in to play a festival next to the Dublin dates to be honest. Most likely BST or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandhurst Red Posted May 28, 2022 Report Share Posted May 28, 2022 (edited) Seen Springsteen and the E-Street band 12 times at various places all over the world and they are nothing short of exceptional. IF he does play AG - I would seriously suggest anyone who like live music to see him before it is too late. And I for one would be rather excited to see Springsteen at the Gate. Doesn't get much better than that, aside from Chris Martin scoring a 97th minute Championship winning goal v Cardiff Edited May 28, 2022 by Sandhurst Red Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The trouble is if he does, with the normal traffic round Ashton, is that the highways going to be jammed with broken heroes on a last chance power drive. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norn Iron Posted May 29, 2022 Report Share Posted May 29, 2022 When staying in Newport once, Springsteen was so bored he made a thermos of hot beverage and headed for the river. He drank several cups and realised he could write a song about the lack of any entertainment or fun in Wales and all he could do was drink several hot cups. Hence his song Fifth Tea, Severn Channel And There's Nothing On. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
