From ringing in my ears to singing in the rears!

Mary Beth basically covered all the bases but I just wanted to say how much of a blast this weekend was. I had a great time at both shows but like she said, the sound Friday was all over the place. I swear my ears were still ringing when we were tailgaiting on Saturday. But I did like my first listen to the new material live and hearing Candy's Room with my sister JoAnn was a personal highlight we can talk about for years to come.

Friday was also great for me since it was an induction into the world of Bruce Live for my niece Justine and her husband Dan. And it I knew he had been converted when at Saturday morning breakfast he had a printed copy of the setlist from Backstreets and a millions questions about records, shows, the band etc.

Saturday night they had the sound down pat and to quote Charlie the Mission Man, "They got the memo." Wow. Two and half hours of singing in the rears was awesome. From end to end it is such a great place to watch a show from. Seeing the interaction, the 'Bruce' signals to other band members, and mostly the crowd makes it a great experience. And when he throws in something like Incident on 57th St. there is nothing more to say.

Thanks you guys for a great weekend, great fun and great memories.

Thanks for report and photos, Carmen. Hope your trip was a blast.

Listened to the p3 of Incident and it sure sound like the band was spot on and tight.
