remphish1 Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I like that nice gap around the NJ dates! Hoping for more shows as they will sell out fast! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Love Boat Captain Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Guessing this time around, the Spectrum shows could be the place to be as well, as it is soon being demolished and Bruce has always done some of his best performances down Philly way. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mfwahl Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Too bad the Super Bowl is the only Florida show. Fans for the Super Bowl show had to practice cheering for 20 hours. Like seeing Bruce in the middle of the Super Bowl isn't exciting enough? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Three dollars and 63 cents Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I'm surprised he's playing in Hershey again, since he was just there in August, and it's not a major market. My dad waffled about whether or not he wanted to go, so maybe I'll offer to take him as an early Father's Day present. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Moss Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 That figures, Springsteen is playing at the dang Pepsi Center (sucks for concerts) and on what I think is the Colorado Rockies opening day! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
thecanuck Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Here's hoping they'll squeeze in a Vancouver or Seattle date somewhere. There's a perfect spot between the Denver and L.A. shows or right around the first batch of dates in California. I was too broke from tuition to go last time he came so my fingers are crossed.

remphish1 Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 How is that venue? It's outside right? In May? Any reason for concern? Should I stop with the questions now? It is rediculously large! I was at a GA show in the back of the stadium and really couldn't see much of anything. Try and get a bleacher seat. I think thats the way to go! May in PA is unpredictable but you should be ok!

Three dollars and 63 cents Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 It's not a huge stadium, but it's a stadium just the same, so the sight lines aren't the best if you're more than halfway back. Also, there aren't individual seats, at least there wasn't the last time I was there. It's all bleachers, though I do think there are numbered spots for assigned seating. I no longer live in the area but grew up a few small towns over, so that's one of the places where I used to see a lot of shows when I was a teenager and in college. I never remember the sound being fantastic or horrible, but honestly, I wasn't paying attention to sound quality back when I used to go to shows there regularly. May in central PA is usually pretty mild. Bring a sweater or sweatshirt, though. Hershey is very touristy because of the amusement park and all the chocolate-related things. There are a few chain restaurants nearby and plenty of hotels. I imagine parking must be up to $20 by now. Hershey Park is a typical amusement park and is pretty expensive, but in the same area is Hershey's Chocolate World, which is a ride that simulates the chocolate-making process. It's a little silly, but it's free, and if you're killing time before the show, that's something to do. There's also a pretty good outlet mall right next to the entertainment complex. A new museum about Milton S. Hershey just opened downtown, probably a five-minute drive from the entertainment complex, too. If you stay overnight, I recommend the Hershey Pantry on Route 422 for breakfast. It looks very froofy, but it's always packed and the breakfasts are the best around.

mrk Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 I had no idea he was so popular in Scandinavia.He can sell out any number of shows in Sweden instantly it seems. I was lucky, happened to be online at the right time when the 3rd Stockholm show was announced and went on sale. If that wasn't enough, he's playing a show less than a mile from my home on June 2nd Couldn't be happier. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pillowy star Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 We've got tickets for Frankfurt. Not my choice spending money on him though Oh well, hope he'll put on a better show this time with the E-Street band than he did last time with the Seeger Session Band or however they were called.

bobfrombob Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 i've never seen an E Street show that wasn't amazing And although I've never been, I hear that European shows are often superior to North American shows, due in large part to fan insanity there. I'd love to be in your place. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Hollinger. Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 St. Paul here I come. Scratch that, apparently the plan is going to be St. Paul then Chicago. Road trip, motherfucker! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LouisvilleGreg Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 The E Street Band did a press conference in Tampa for the SuperBowl in which Bruce confirmed that a second U.S. leg would occur later in the year. He specifically mentioned Cleveland and Detroit as cities that they will get to. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
