Bruce Springsteen – Parc des Princes – Paris 27th June

As everybody probably knows I went to Paris to see the love of my life :)
For those of you who don’t know, i went to see Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band. Yes – BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN!!!
I must say, the gig was simply AWESOME. 30 000 people singing Boss’ songs with a French accent ;) only kidding.
But seriously, the concert was absolutely fantastic, and well worth all that queuing to get to the front. The Boss was in top form, played for just over 3 hours and managed to squeeze in quite a few stunners. He opened with ‘Adam Raised a Cain’ which surprised a few, then followed with ‘Radio Nowhere’, ‘Spirit in the night’, ‘Living in the future’, ‘Girls in the summer clothes’ and so on. He collected quite few requests which resulted in ‘Janey don’t you loose heart’ and the superb ‘No surrender’ – when he showed the sign for ‘Fire’ the band started playing ‘I’m on fire’ but he yelled “Not ‘I’m on Fire’ — ‘Fire’!”. He also performed the beautiful ‘For you’ solo at the piano. And finally he played my personal favourite RANDEZVOUS – YAY :D
Oh Rock and Roll doesn’t get any better than this :D
