Springsteen /River tour

I had one very excited sister and brother in law around last night who managed to get tickets for the Manchester show....they have previously seen him and were beyond ecstatic getting them

I agonised about buying tickets for Manchester - but it's extremely likely we will be busy silaging etc then, so in the end my head ruled my heart and I resisted. I've been caught out several times with farm life spoiling my plans (four times last year - but that was a bad year), and the cost (and more important the disappointment after the anticipation) made me say , no - not this time.

No doubt I will regret it.

"Hope it doesn’t rain"

     *****

We've tickets for the Manchester gig, it will rain, but in Coventry, surely not!

Rumour has it he encores with Born to run, then Dancing in the dark. Should be good. 

Well, it's tomorrow! Forecast is for rain (well it is Manchester), but what the hell, it will be brilliant!

Hi hope you all have a good day & night my avatar is from when he was last there,can't make Manchester this time but have got tickets for Coventry seated this time not in the pit.

My other half was in Barcelona on 14/05 to see him. Said it was the best concert he had ever been to with Springsteen on stage for 4 hours!

Hes off to Manchester tonight to see him again. Somehow I don't think the weather will be any match for Barcelona!

What a fantastic night, in spite of the rain. I'm still recovering, retirement does have it's advantages, wouldn't fancy having to get up for work this morning. Just tried to post a photo, but failed miserably.

All of you who are going to his Coventry gig, enjoy.

Still trying to post a photo of the gig...any help much appreciated!

Just back from Coventry after watching the best showman on earth.I don't know how that man keeps going he's like a fine wine gets better with age.I lost track of how many songs he sang as there didn't seem to be a encore they just went straight through till the final song witch was an acoustic rendition of Thunder Road the best I've ever heard it on guitar and harmonica.The weather was fine for a change the down side was the jobsworth on the entry turnstile,I have never been frisked by a jobsworth before and he made me throw the bag of sweets I had in my jeans pocket.I could understand if there was a shop selling sweets inside the arena but they only sell chocolate and food?.Still he will not spoil my memories.
