My daughter son and wife have just booked tickets for me and my wife to go to the Coventry River tour on the 3 June as a gift for my 65th birthday.
Our first Springsteen concert was the river tour in 1980 it was the Boss’s first show in the UK at the Stafford county show ground. A rain storm in the afternoon flooded the hall and the car park so the show started late.
We where fans before seeing him live having bought the records and seeing TV footage but what a show it was even better than we expected still one of the best shows I have seen.
The 5 hour show finally finished at around one o’clock in the morning and all the cars had sunk in the mud on the field used as a temporary car park, we got home around 3am.
So here we go again 36 years later and off to see the river tour again, we saw the first now seeing one of the last, older but not much wiser but still fans on our journey in to retirement.
Hope it doesn’t rain

As this is a duplicate thread to the one in Enterainment I will close this one to avoid having two discussions on the same subject.
