bouche Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 NW was probably so wasted that it didn't matter where the hell he was or who was playing Those videos are fantastic. That must have been one helluva experience for Win Butler and Régine Chassagne. They sure do get to play with legends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am calling a 10th Ave first timer on this tour tonight. I'm calling a Feist gets on stage with the Boss.I am very interested to see if this happens, or any other guest spot. Its not that common that the Boss has others out during his shows, so if this becomes something special for this tour- I will be as surprised as I was last night.I think AF was perfectly suited, but I'm not sure how Feist would do up there. Oh yeah, and I had a few beers ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AD Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 Don't know if the Feist call was serious or not, but she's playing in France until Friday. Any reason someone wants Feist up there at all? Doesn't make any sense to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Wish Posted October 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 October 15 / Toronto, ON / Air Canada CentreNotes: For the back half of their two-show jaunt to Canada, Bruce pulled out more of a standard set. No Arcade Fire repeat performance; that was a one-off for Ottawa only. But the nightly tour debuts continue -- tonight's was a brisk "For You" -- demonstrating how remarkably on their mettle the band is for this early in the tour. Another golden oldie, "Incident on 57th Street" was dedicated to Humphrey Kadaner, president of HMV Canada and a longtime Bruce fan, who personally guaranteed his customers that they'd love Magic or get their money back. This was Kadaner's 87th Springsteen concert. The crowd at this sold-out show (there were a couple thousand empty seats in Ottawa -- keep kicking yourselves, A.F. fans!) ate it all up. They clearly knew the new material, and while the more obscure "Thundercrack" didn't seem to ring bells for many, it wound up being very well received. It didn't hurt that the band absolutely nailed it. No one was complaining nine nights ago in Philly, but since then the confidence, the pacing, the tightness, have all dramatically improved. Also during that time, "Dancing in the Dark" (with the house lights staying up, following "Born to Run") has found a consistent home as the night's penultimate song, replacing "Waitin' on a Sunny Day" for a much stronger encore. This is a show, and a band, that's ready to take Manhattan.Setlist:Radio NowhereNightLonesome DayGypsy BikerFor YouMagicReason to BelieveCandy's RoomShe's the OneLivin' in the FutureThe Promised LandTown Called HeartbreakIncident on 57th StreetDarlington CountyDevil's ArcadeThe RisingLast to DieLong Walk HomeBadlands* * *Girls in Their Summer ClothesThundercrackBorn to RunDancing in the DarkAmerican LandFOR YOU AND CANDY'S ROOM!?!

Hartamophone Posted October 22, 2007 Report Share Posted October 22, 2007 I came across an mp3 this weekend of Eddie Vedder covering "No Surrender". Despite the audience noise and vocal flub, I find this to be a pretty moving rendition of one of my favourite Bruce tracks.Enjoy.Link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
