  2. The sound on that doc is dismal. Too many times various instruments are just dropped from the mix.

  7. why did JT at the Orpheum say When polling the Audience How many have seen us in Boston Priorit

    It did not count if you saw us with Neil?

    Was it because Neil was such a draw they discounted their appearance ?

    Great Show nonetheless

    and just for the record I bought a Nosebleed for the last Neil show here in Boston (Wang Last Winter 80 bucks)

    and moved to the 10 th row at the break what can I say Most of rows 9 & 10 were wide open

  9. 1st Show after the Fall

    From MOR Monsters of Rock Website

     

    Steven Tyler returned to the stage Wednesday night in Paraguay, a day after a shower accident at his hotel cost him some teeth, a black eye and a day’s delay in rocking Asuncion.

    Early fans reports and video suggest Tyler was back in fine form, seemingly much improved over his performance in Lima, Peru on Saturday.

    For his part, Aerosmith guitarist Joe Perry updated fans on his singer’s status early Wednesday: “Happy Steven is feeling better today. He’s a real trooper. Aerosmith is playing the show in Paraguay tonight.”

    Just the second date on the band’s South American tour, the gig was held at the Asuncion Jockey Club.

  10. Moving back to the 80's Met Springsteen

    I was in College and it was Springsteen's & ESB The River Tour It was at our Old Boston Garden I was able through a Band Photographer Friend get backstage after the show However albeit just about 20 mins Hung out low key party cool scene. I Had some Chats w/ Clarence man he and Little Steven Dressed to the NInes after a Gig! I Had some food and beer and attempted to join my Friend to go into see his eminence er Bruce seated and greeting guests w/ Backstage Passes Only! Busted that's when I got along and about 12 other posers er Fans..respectfully were asked to leave.

    Undeterred in our late teen interest in Meeting such a Great Writer and Performer and in Good Company (about 8 or 9 Girls from Salem State) and a couple of other guys. So we hung out and Had Fun chatting and getting to know each other.

    After about hr later a van pulls up real close to the door and positions itself as to block our view to see who is getting in. A chant roars for Bruce and an advance man comes over perhaps security and says he would like to greet each and every one of us But do not go to him,let him come to you

    So he was Warm Friendly and spent what seemed about 5 mins with each of us.

    I brought up the title track the River and told him how I loved it and why; as it the characters we so real and the music was so dark I loved it!(above the other faster tunes getting loads of airplay at the time) He hugged me and said hey man Thanks a lot for your support it means a lot! We talked about his touring briefly and then a girl said she wanted a pic alone w/ him.

    Bruce said no I want all my Friends around me! Fool that I am did I get the Girls # no but got an autograph but more imp. to me some x w/ a man that I felt was worth waiting for. Dam of course I had a Final in
