    Right, can someone helpfully explain this ridiculous system to me please? I'm queuing outside camp Nou with my girlfriend as I type and we've been given numbers 2001 and 2002 respectively by some Spanish anorak fan. What the hell happens now?

    We need to leave to drop a bag off at home SBD grab some lunch before we come back. Will this be possible?

    I see that Platinum tickets for $500 are being sold for Springsteen's US Summer tour .
    Its disappointing to see this ,he really seems to be going for the cash grab on this tour .
    So much for the working man .

    No, bit it got a good airing. Jake is really becoming a star in these shows. His stage presence is magnificent.

    Been dying to hear My Love Will Not Let You Down and I'm Going Down live for years so to have them come out so early was an absolute treat. Still played Purple Rain which was nice.

    Still haven't managed to hear Jungleland live :(

    You could get the 7 bus or just get the DART to Connolly.

    Beautiful. He didn't do Thunder Road at either of the RDS gigs in 2012, so I really need to get it this time round.

    The catalans really think he has a special relationship with them - just cos he mentioned them winning the league :rolleyes: like his PR guy just told him that before the gig -- next week he´ll be saying Alla Madrid at the Bernabeu ...

    I'd happily give up Shout, Twist and Shout (even American Land, which I love) etc for a big Jungleland outdo.

    They're fun and have people dancing etc but I'd happily never hear them again.

    I'm sure you've flat out never taken a photo at a concert in your life.

    We're all pretty bored of your incessant trolling efforts. It's getting pretty tedious.

    Yeah I guess it depends on how many times you've seen him. I'd rather never hear those songs ever again. But some people love them.

    Great setlist I suppose but a lot of it is nothing I haven't seen 5-6 times previously. Band sounded great and Bruce was in cracking form.

    He played 12 songs from it on Saturday night. I'd wager we'll get all 20 over two nights in Croker.
