    Best for me:

    Bruce Springsteen, june 23th 2008 in Antwerp. Only indoor-arena in the European stadium-leg of the Magic tour. Very intense and long concert (almost 3 hours straight) with a lot of surprises (Born to Run-outtake So Young and in Love as opener, Thunder Crack played for the first time in Europe, Point Blank and the tourpremiere of I'm a Rocker), great interaction between Bruce and the crowd and of course excellent renditions of classics like Because The Night, Badlands, Born to Run and Thunder Road. The newer songs also fit in well.

  13. Opening of a concert

    U2 usually opens their shows with "Where The Streets Have No Name".

    not exactly true. I think 'Streets' was only the opener during The Joshua Tree-tour and maybe the Lovetown Tour.

    for ZooTV/Zooropa/Zoomerang (1992-1993) the opener was Zoo Station

    for the Popmart-tour (1997-1998) Mofo was the opener

    for the Elevation-tour (2001) Elevation was the first song

    for The Vertigo Tour (2005-2006) U2 had different openers (City of Blinding Lights, Vertigo, Love and peace or else)

  23. dEUS: In a Bar, Under the Sea

    our new Belgian friend introduced me to Suds and Soda, which I became quite fond of :) I think I'll have to check them out...

    should I concentrate on this or maybe on "Worst case Scenario"?

    both albums are good starters. I also recommend the third album 'The Ideal Crash'.

  24. Chevy or Ford?

    some songs of Bruce Springsteen

    Lost in the Flood: 'That pure American brother, dull-eyed and empty-faced

    races Sundays in Jersey in a Chevy stock super eight'

    Racing in the Street: 'I got a sixty-nine Chevy with a 396

    Fuelie heads and a Hurst on the floor

    She's waiting tonight down in the parking lot

    Outside the Seven-Eleven store'

    Ramrod: 'She's a hot stepping hemi with a four on the floor

    She's a roadrunner engine in a '32 Ford'

    Seaside Bar Song: 'Well Billy bought a Chevy '40 coupe deluxe

    Chrome wheels, stick shift, give her gas, pop the clutch'

    Shut out the light: 'Well on his porch they stretched a banner that said "Johnny Welcome Home"

    Bobby pulled his Ford out of the garage and they polished up the chrome'

    Thunder Road: 'There were ghosts in the eyes

    Of all the boys you sent away

    They haunt this dusty beach road

    In the skeleton frames of burned out Chevrolets'
