Bruce Springsteen opens Emirates 10th Avenue Freeze Out

[sadielumay]

Got me all a wee bit worried here.. last saw the boss in '93 i SECC in Glasgow(Standing),this time round sadly got seating tix up in the gods, can honestly say NEVER sat down at a gig in my life,All I can say is You STAND in the presence of greatness, so for all those going to Cardiff, apologies in advance.....xx

[peeayouel]

love you bruce

[GarethMTB]

Yes I was up in the Upper Tier block 109 [see my crap mobile video of Born to Run] and I was determined to stand up and have a good time with my girlfriend. Most people just sat around in an apparent daze looking at me like I was mad!!

[peeayouel]

oops another naughty dancer here,but i just didnt care you cant sit still when bruce springsteen is playing live on stage,still enjoyed myself but wish i had been down the front!!maybe its just my memories but saw bruce early 80's at wembley and everyone was dancing!!

[wydaniu]

yesterday I was amazed by number of chaps just...sitting?

[jarjarbigboy]

love you bruce but english crowds are just shit.

[AlonsoLegend]

This video doesn't do the crowd justice. When you hear the crowd later nearly drowning out Bruce on "Thunder Road" because they know the lyrics by heart, THATS a crowd :D

[backatya123]

Alonso, I agree my little clip doesn't do the crowd justice, but it was the first song and we were in shock that Bruce was doing 10th Avenue Freeze out in order to christen the Emirates :-)

In fact I thought the crowd up the front, in the pit, was great and I lost my voice from so much singing and shouting for more Bruuuuuce. And although I am not a great dancer I certainly couldnt keep still while the Boss rocked us!

[MelissaH73]

Have to agree with you. Was at last nights gig (31st) and couldn't believe the amount of people who remained seated. How hard does Bruce have to work to get people on their feet?!!! The lack lustre crowd were REALLY frustrating but Bruce and co were great! How the **** can people think about food or loo stops when Bruce is on stage? Beats me.

[jarjarbigboy]

another thing,i got moved from my seat cause i was blocking the veiw from the wankers behind me all i was doin was dancing,thankfully i was up the front on friday with the real fans,so to that couple behind me go and see barry manilow and kiss my arse,roll on bruce in spain.x x x

[MelissaH73]

You were never dancing were you? Surely not! Blimey, what do people want at a gig, you just CANNOT keep still in the presence of The Boss and why on earth should you. Wish i'd have been stood where you were, i'd have joined you!

[AlonsoLegend]

You got moved? Flipping heck what a jobsworth, lets hope he ends up in the Badlands :D

[jarjarbigboy]

yep,its amazing how many dull tossers are out there the next best thing to seeing bruce is jesse malin check him out.

[peeayouel]

another naughty dancer here agree with you all about the crowd on saturday night but still got out of my seat and had a good dance can't sit still when bruce is live on stage!!maybe its the emirates stadium nice place but is it a good music venue?saw bruce in early 80's and again in the 90's at wembley and everyone was up dancing!

[MelissaH73]

Yes deffo think it was the venue. It's a fab stadium but maybe not good for live music. So hope he tours again in the not too distant future. Would love to see him at a different venue. Was still a GREAT night though and still can't get the songs out of my head, not that i want to!
