We overheard a conversation between two Limerick women who walked by looking in bewilderment at the pit queue.

A."Who's playin in there like?"

B."He's brilliant, he's from the 80s."

A."Name a song that he sings for me."

B."Ah you know him, he sings that one, Livin in the USA."

Just thought I'd share that with you all.

"He's from the 80s". !!!

Wonder what Bruce would make of that?!

We arrived down from Dublin earlier this evening.Had to laugh at some of the folks from the pit queue returning to where they had casually parked their cars in Ballynanty/Moyross.

I'm heading to the gig tomorrow and planning on busing it back to Dublin first thing Wednesday. Just wondering is there any bus services back to Dublin late after the concert? Couldn't see any for BE or Dublin Coach.

Don't think I'll get much sleep tonight, kinda feels like Christmas eve! If they play Secret Garden, Human Touch or Terry's Song it will really make my day.

Ah he was adorable - I was the one who asked if he was friendly and if I could pet him. I guess only bruce can answer the pre show question. When he arrived in Paris he looked a bit tired and grumpy. 2 minutes later he was on stage doing pre show :-)

Some of the comments were hilarious. A spinning class took it outside to all Bruce songs at the 8pm call

Are you talking about on foot or by car. Best way by public transport is bus to town then walk to Thomand.
