    There's definitely a Bruce fan in TG4, they must have shown Storytellers 20 times back a few years ago....

    so what was the programme like?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,949 ✭✭✭dixiefly


    It looks like we have finally come to the end of the "Tour".....

    Quote at end of gig:
    Before the tour-ending "Dream Baby Dream," Springsteen sat at the pump organ and told the crowd, "We want to take a moment and thank yourselves for coming out and seeing us, I appreciate the support after all of these years. And I want to thank all the four million-plus people that have seen us on the Wrecking Ball/High Hopes tour. They made this simply one of the greatest musical stretches of our lives, when we're coming out of hard times, and I can't thank all of them and all of you enough. So while we're apart, just remember... Dream baby dream..."

    Sadly, i only came across the end of the program on sat nite as i didnt expect TG4 to have it on, so after seeing the post on the main boards page, i checked on youtube for it & its in the first link in the search & further below that one you have an hour long interview on E St radio last Jan.

    Could be the one that was on TG4, as its longer than on TG4, enjoy anyway :)

    Watched Springsteen & I last night. I really needed a Springsteen fix.

    Hard to believe last summer was the summer of Springsteen for me. Managed to see all 5 Irish gigs.

    A BTX post suggests that Springsteen is looking to release and do quite a few things in the coming months. The person who wrote the post says that there will be a River box set released in November which will then be followed by a new Springsteen album in February. They also say that the new album is not an E Street Band album. There was a report yesterday that Springsteen already has 8 songs down and practically ready for the record that have a "Mexican" type of sound to it. Could very well be that country feel album. The poster goes on to say that there will also be a new tour arrangement starting in Spring 2015. The new tour format is said to be Bruce solo/with minimal musicians for about an hour and then the E Street Band joins for the rest of the show. That would for sure be an interesting arrangement and one I could see working out. This rumor does line up with previous rumors we have heard regarding a new release in November and a tour in 2015. 


    Here is the full post made on BTX: 


    "There will be a River box set released in November followed by an album of new material (Non E Street Band) in Feb. A tour is due to to begin in Spring 2015, the format is to be Bruce solo/with minimal accompaniment for an hour then joined by the E Street Band for a set.

    This is sourced from a rumour and I rate it as reliable as the majority of other posts regarding album/tours for 2015."

    Jessica Springsteen, the 22-year-old daughter of legendary US rock star Bruce - who is in Dublin to watch Jessica - will also be taking to the hallowed turf in the RDS as she competes with Team USA.

    The RDS is a home from home for her dad who has played sold-out shows there on 11 occasions.
