[roach4946]

bono sounds shit , his version of this great song is crap, tinny guitar work, and whats up with the ugly hat for gods sake, fuk off back to ireland u bone,head and stop tryin to be the saint of the world u fukn crettin

[roseofcimarron]

So nice to welcome Patti on stage!

[hans4908]

I only respect Bono because The Boss respects Bono! Period!!!

[Lkpgofdoom]

Bono sounds almost exactly like Sting at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame :P

[GabeU2Fan]

Fact: Bruce is not even the same league as Bono

However- Bruce is great enough to appreciate Bono letting him up there with him

[dwadeismvp3]

@GabeU2Fan

Fact: Bruce is a legend..as is Bono. Bruce has the years on Bono and Bono idolizes him.

Fact: Bono and Bruce greatly respect each other and are excellent performers.

[brownmajic48]

Rock sucks!!!!!!!!!!

[TheSoulCrusader]

Patti Scialfa, she is the complete woman.

[biggles1111]

Having Bruce as a guest performer is like...the biggest star you can find. I mean, it's like when Bob Dylan hopped in to sing "Like A Rolling Stone" with the Rolling Stones. It's friggin HUGE.

[Bruni93]

haha the end is too funny!:D

[nzzenith]

Sounds like a drunk fan club in a really good mood lol

[jenizaro3322]

bono's voice is great, sorry to bruce's fans but bono's voice is way better than bruce's, besides bono's creativity is great, he adds the oh oh oh to the song which makes it a better song. wow, bono makes bruce look like a midget. OK BRUCE IS CALLED THE BOSS, BONO SHOULD BE CALLED MR GREATNESS JEJE

[warflynn]

@jenizaro3322 Not Better.... just different! Love both!

[mustang9985]

@jenizaro3322 Go to youtube video U2 & Bruce springsteen I still haven't found what im looking for... Bruce spanks U2 at his own song as the comments show. Its all opinion as always.

[budkearns]

It looked like Bruce didn't like Bono flirting with Patti.I love Bruce but Bono has his head on better. You always hear about Bruce being with other women. I loved Bono for putting Bruce in his place.Patti is such a first class lady and he is lucky to have her.

[sanctified4one]

@budkearns I thought it was quite tacky... and showed NO class! She should be grateful for all that Bruce has done and given for her... mind you she would not even be standing next to Bono if she hadn't married Bruce!

[budkearns]

@sanctified4one Sorry, I disagree with you. Patti has an amazing voice and is a very giftive song writer. She has also been in his band since the eighyies and works just as hard as any member of the band. From what I hear she is also a terrific mother. You never read any thing bad about their children. They appear to be very grounded. I think she has been a loving and faithful wife and given Bruce a strong family life. Raiseing good kids is the most important job in the world.

[sanctified4one]

@budkearns True, I agree she is a good mother as well as a gifted songwriter... but that does not give her/them the right to "put Bruce in his place" IN public... and there are many amazing song writer who NEVER get on stage with Bono... so I stick to my "she wouldn't even be standing next to Bono if she hadn't married Bruce" and still "it showed NO class!"  Matter of fact Bono should be honored to have Bruce join him... who does he think he is? Disrespect always shows no class!

[budkearns]

@sanctified4one I might have misspoke when I said "they put him in his place". I think Bruce and Bono are good friends and this was all good natural teasing. I have always admired Bruce for his music and his relationship with Patti. I know Bruce has denied having an affair with Ann Kelly and hope that is the truth. This was my first time seeing this video and had heard about the rumer of an affair.I was hoping if Bruce realized other mem were attracted to Patti this could be a wake up call.

[sanctified4one]

@budkearns I think Bruce is fully aware that Patti is desired by other men... and by what I have seen Bruce gushes over Patti when she joins him on stage as well as he is very attentive to her... he honors her in a lovely and loving way. I also believe that many women would like to believe that they have a relationship and/or mean more to Bruce than they actually do... and Ann Kelly is no exception. Bruce loves his wife (family) dearly and in the face of all the odds Bruce is the class act!

[budkearns]

@sanctified4one I loved what you said about Bruce and Patty and I truly hope you are right. They are both one in a million. I enjoyed talking to you.

Take care.

[HaggiZ]

"The boss" always reminds me of Metal Gear Solid

[19JerseyGirl73]

tytytytyty for posting!

[heyerdahlthor]

the boss starts it on the other beat !! :_) twice in their common stages... :D

[NolanBryanLynch]

Ha! Bruce doing Bono's signature wail. Very funny.

[ArtsPatron2008]

Patti is The Redhead who so easily walks on water!

[ortleyman]

@ArtsPatron2008 Oh, stop it. I've been following Bruce for over thirty years. Lets not get carried away with Patti. Ever see her up close w/o make up? I have. Sight for sore eyes. Really. Stop being so star struck . Bono, Bruce and Patti shit and fart like the rest of us.

[ArtsPatron2008]

BRUUUUUUUUCE!

[Retiredin]

God Bless Curtis Mayfield missing him sooo

[Anet99]

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh. Wish I was there to see that set. Thanks for sharing on YouTube.

[nickducey]

wow...this might be the best of the best...two legends with the ultimate respect for one another...

[Xalira06]

@Ali: for the audio, you could try to download the bootleg and paste it with this video ;)

[Xalira06]

Do you think this had been organized or was it just because Bruce was in the venue? Wonder what will happen tonight in NYC :D

[gasterij]

yeah, best idea I heard in a long time.

Where can I get tickets

[SW189]

I support a U2/ Bruce Springsteen tour

[geo1134]

@SW189 the best idea ive ever heard on this bable of a forum

[hold121]

are the crowd boooooing in the start of the clip for like a min?

[jerseyrovcker61]

NO ther are not Booooooing!

There saying BRUUUUUCE!

As they always do!

[T1U2C3C4]

theyre saying "bruuuuuuuuce". sounds like "boo"

[LordLiamo]

Is it just me, or is that the most mellow Larry have ever been?

[charmdhour]

The Boss and U2 awseome.

[snatch8mm]

me gustaria expresar lo diverso que me parece

este show devido a la convinacion del rock irlandes de primer nivel y the boss o el jefe con mayuscula. aqui se complementa la impecable calidad del rock puro y melodias de este idioma tan maravilloso llamadao yngles 4 yrlandeses tremendos y un gran norteamericano de new jersey

[RumbleDoll87]

Bruce&U2...amazing =)!!!!

[keesthabomb]

2 best artists ever

[Dogsw00f]

Aaarrrrrggghhh! .. this classic song suits neither of these oldster rockers. What are they, drunk? They need to leave this one to Rod Stewart -- the only voice suitable for it since Mayfield.

[bossnbruce]

DOGS maybe u should go back to listening to "DO YOU THINK I'M SEXY"and leave the GOOD music to the people w taste!!!

[Dogsw00f]

Stewart's written hundreds of songs, and millions of people like DYTIS, so I don't take your intended offense. And I like the Boss and U2 as well, but they may as well be farting and belching this song--at least with this performance; it's just BAD. Rod, when he sets his mind to it, at least puts heart and soul into a song, as he did with PGR. Besides, his voice is better suited.

[SelfPortraitGallery]

Well, for U2 that might be right but definitely not for Springsteen while his roots are r&b based... there's more soul in springsteen's music than it has ever been in rod stewarts though i like his music, too

[SW189]

anyone have a good audio of this preformance?

[Georgia4God]

Wow!  Bono can sure strut! Does he play any instruments? Haven't watched him before. I like Bruce, thought! :)

[doderlein7]

Listen to the crowd when Bruce starts singing!! No question who the Boss is.....

[sween221]

People get ready

Hes a funky brotha

Playin that old guitar

Like you know that he can

People get ready cause there is no other

Bruce Springsteen... is back.. in town

if i caught this show i couldve solved world hunger.. fuck

[sbaker12]

lololololol

[ericasmeding]

My two heroes!!!!!!

[phillyphyler40]

I was at this concert! The roof came off the house when BRUUUUUCE came on stage. It was by far the BEST concert ever!!! (The opening act was HORRIBLE though!)

Cant wait for the new U2 cd, and TOUR!!

[wroper76]

I was there that night too. It was awesome as you can see. Bono was clearly getting a huge kick out of it too. You could tell they are all big fans of each other.

[HyperU2]

I was at the show the night before this one, of course. lol Thanks for the vid.

[Sheall323]

I actually danced with Bruce on night in Hollywood. My friend, Cleo, toured with him back in the late 90's as a backup singer.

[plofus]

thats pretty cool,was it dancing in the dark? did he invite you up or did you bumrush the stage?

[dcf17]

omg! i was there and it was absolutely amazing. and it was so awesome because my sister came and shes a huge bruce fan and she got to see him for the first time there! it was just unbelieveable and to have it in PHILLY!

[kevinm1999]

patti scialfa at the end quality.

[u2retrobuff]

oh yeah' one & only time this was played on the Vertigo tour be surprising if after this they played GLORIA then closed with 40 just like the Joshua sets back in the 80's!!!! great seeing the boss always with them be great if springsteen toured with them as a opening act with along with the WHO all the way on that one!!!

[alyse1969]

no offense, but bruce as the "opening act" for u2???? sorry, bub, think it'd have to be the other way around.

[showtime5700]

U2 is good but the Boss would be the headliner in that show!!!

[ruth421963]

AMAZING!

[jrn989]

I was at this show too. love U2 but I'm a Bruceaholic, so as you can imagine this moment was surreal to me. Seeing my favorite 2 musicians on stage at once was unreal

[SW189]

Sounds like the crowd blew the roof off the building when the Boss was introduced, good video too

[tays69]

They weren't actually booing the were saying Bruccccceeeeeeee I made that mistake at my first Springsteen concert

[phillyguy672]

I WAS AT THIS SHOW AT THE RIGHT OF THE STAGE, DRUNK OFF MY ASS AND WONDERING WHY PEOPLE WERE BOOING , UNTIL I REALIZED BRUCE CAME ON THE STAGE! EVERY u2 CONCERT I GO TO TURNS OUT TO BE THE BEST CONCERT I EVER BEEN TO.

[LittleStevenMilano]

thanks a lot..some moments are timeless

[AliBarghi]

No problem, and you're right. I wish the video had better sound tho :-\
