“Was any reason given for the lateness?”
Nashville isn’t very accommodating to elderly people in wheelchairs...making it harder to get around and on time.
Well....that’s a good one!
Saw Springsteen this past week. I am dating a woman for a year now who loves him and I thought I’d be a sport. I saw him back in 1981, The River tour, he was equally as boring back then. At 3 hours into the concert I was ready to shoot myself. Maybe it’s his dated 9th grade angsty whining, his left wing politics or him donning himself “The Boss” that makes me hate him the intensity of a thousand suns. Hey Bruce sax is for Jazz and Funk not Rock and Roll. I’d imagine the same would be at a Madonna concert, aging kids of baby boomers trying to relive 1985 all over again. Bruce a talent no doubt, but since Nebraska his songwriting has been crap.
Best concert with original music, great stage show and music with depth. Nine Inch Nails. Even if you hate industrial or alternative music, Trent Reznor can really make you a convert. The wall of sound, the textures to his music, the rawness of it. Then again after the mullet days I gave up on FM Rock and Roll, embraced the grunge and alternative scene and you’d most likely catch Tool and Godsmack on my iTunes than Billy Joel or the The Stones.
