Springsteen - Higher and Higher - The Spectrum October 20, 2009

the idiot with the
"for you
for me"
sign is killing it

I was at this show with my nine year old daughter. I have seen a lot of great live shows, but this may have been the best!

Pure Joy

Let me correct myself. Just found the Boston 77 version. Still what great night that was. Who's that down the end of the alley?

It just amazes me how the band can play a song for the first time and it sounds like they have played it forever. I took my ten year old son to this show and he fell in love with this song. He plays the sax part around the house pretending he is the big man.

Have you read this Big Man's book? There's a part in it where a kid about 10 years old hopes on stage with him and rocks out. And I agree with you, I was at the Chicago concert when they played mony mony for the first time and it was fantastic seeing the band go to work

this is fantastic!  thank you

I have been a Bruce Springsteen fan for almost 25 years and have seen him some 70 odd times in concert. However, at this show, which I attended, the Philadelphia Spectrum's last Bruce show, I have never seen Bruce enjoying himself more onstage then during this version of Higher and Higher. (The first time the song had... been performed by Bruce and the Band since 1978). It is pure unbridled joy of a man doing a job he loves more than life itself. We should all be so lucky.

Well said.

saw him do this last night at MSG...tremendous...fantastic encore!
