I haven't had much time to devote to the concert accounts, so in the meantime here are a couple of good Springsteen links from Steven Rubio's site:
- A video of a great performance of "Twist and Shout" from the 1978 tour.
- A link to Jon Pareles' New York Times review of the recent Madison Square Garden show. Talk about feeling old - I remember reading Pareles as far back as 1979, when he began writing reviews for Rolling Stone and Village Voice.
Thanks for the links, Jeff. Get back to those Bruce concert tales when you get a chance. Before the 2002 tour, I was looking for stuff to fill up my then-new blog, and got the idea of a "personal Bruce history." Talked about each album and each time I saw him ... timed it so I was done just in time to go see him in San Jose. It helped me put things in context, and it's always there now when I want to think and/or write about Bruce.
