Re: Columbus Show

THull,
thanks. I hope he continues to play "Bring 'em Home", "Across the Great
Divide", "How Can a Poor Man .. " and "Long Black Veil" as well. I'll ask a
general question to the board. Have you ever regretted going to a Bruce
show? I know I haven't. I only wish I could have gone to more and I've
been to all the different types of shows since 1992.

Some quick thoughts:

This show is FUN. It brings a whole new dimension to the music.

The band is top notch.

The trifecta of Bring Them Home, Mrs McGrath and How Can A Poor Man...
was moving and received a very positive response from the crowd in the
center of Republican corrupt OH.

Jacob's Ladder was never one of my favorites, but live it becomes a
barnburner.

Still not crazy about the new arrangments of Bruce's originals. I think
Adam Raised works the best.

MCOR was beautiful. Again, this song really never did it for me, but in
this setting....

Across The Great Divide was a live debut and the band pulled it off
pretty well.

Nothing negative to say about this show. It transcends the album and IMO
brings a real sense of community in a live setting. If you've debated
going to a show, don't. It probably won't change your life and you
probably won't list it as the best show you've ever seen, but it's a
whole lot of fun. For the audience, Bruce and the band. The bootlegs
don't even do it justice, ya have to see it.
