    Went to see him in Cork last night. Four and a half hours standing in the rain, a half hour walk to and from the stadium, legs and back killing, poncho on back to front and it was worth every ache and pain. He was brilliant. I thought he might be diminished by his age but it was fantastic. Three hours non stop gig.
    Loved it. :D

    Our friends went last year. Watched some clips on YouTube and it looked phenomenal. Ticket prices were pretty insane though!

    You won't be disappointed.
    P.s. You have to download your tickets to Google wallet. No doubt a joint ticketmaster/Google scam.

    He's brilliant. Don't know how he still has the enthusiasm after all these years.

    An incredible performer.

    For any of you lot who are interested I can't recommend highly enough Stevie Van Zandt's autobiography narrated by himself. Well worth the extra cash to hear him read it in his Jersey wise guy accent.

    Saw him in Cardiff other week, wasn’t really a fan before but he actually blew me away
    Fantastic performance from him and his band
    Over 3 hours on stage non stop
    Not bad for going a near 75 year old

    Is he still one of the backing musicians? And Nils Lofgren?

    He is. He's Bruce's life long buddy and, yes Lofgren is playing with them. I saw Lofgren in Salford years back so it was great to see all three up on stage next to each other.

    I saw Nils on a solo tour when he played Cheltenham Town Hall. We had seats close to the stage and it was fantastic seeing such a brilliant guitarist up close. I think he had two others supporting him including brother Tommy

    He was brilliant in Lillyhammer which is still on Netflix.
