So Sun was the show in Columbus that I'd normally be camped in the Pit for. I had to cancel after my heart issues flared up, first ESB tour I've missed in 20+ yrs...
My friend went and messaged me during the show. This show had been cancelled twice, and the first time she drove all the way to Columbus only to get there and find out Bruce had covid. So obviously he wanted to make amends and give fans a special show. He opened with Youngstown into Lonesome Day, and my friend was over the moon. She got home at 3am Mon morning,and it took her all day yesterday to recover.
Close to 3 hours, a 30 song set. Came out blasting, and his voice sounded strong and powerful here right from the start. I love how the excitment builds during the walkout, and while he's probably opened with Youngstown previously, I'm not aware of when that might be. I don't think he's played it at any of the 30 shows I've attended...
More rarities- Streets of Fire into I'm Going Down. Another really strong vocal on SOF,and Jake nails his sax solo on Going Down...
That’s incredible. I’ve never heard that song sung that way. I agree with Simon.
She appears to be a ready made Broadway star.
It’s crazy how simple Cowell’s shows are, and yet how much emotion they can generate. I think all of us can relate to the desire to have that one moment where you’re judged on something you truly care about and hearing “you’re great.” That you get that judgment with a roaring crowd in the background just amplifies it that much more.
Does spanking the monkey in the shower count?
Happy Cinco de Mayo. Some faves with a Mexican theme...
You canNever have too much Warren...
"I heard Woodrow Wilson's guns"...
Always loved Rick Roberts' vocals...
Classic from JT with our old friend Lee Sklar
One of Bruce's most haunting songs...
Haven't heard this in quite a while. I was 13 and I'm not even sure I understood the reference to "Sky Pilot". I did understand it was an anti-war theme...
In a similar vein... I think sometimes we (at least myself) lose sight of the fact that many of the 60s British invasion heros were themselves products of WW2. And in England, that meant The Blitz...
Captain Walker didn't come home, his unborn child will never know him...
@T.M.P.
There are lots of good versions of that, and this isn't the best, but I'm partial to it. One of the traditions Goodman got into was each year, he'd be the Easter Sunday guest on Vin Scelsa's morning show in New York. No one was listening. Too much stuff going on. But he did some great performances.

I agree that's the best one. I was just going through this thread wondering if I had already posted that, so far, no ... but you did. NTTAWWT. Such an underrated song writer ..
I've been repeating myself a lot in this thread, apparently. Next post is #1600, so I guess that will happen.
Yeah me too ... I listen to something that I don't listen to much like Pixies .. and think oh I'll post that .. apparently I listen to the Pixies more than I thought..
