Bruce Knocks Boston's Sox Off


While some grumbling has been heard about ticket prices for some general admission stops on the Bruce Springsteen tour, you'd be hard pressed to find anyone that's gone to any of the shows that doesn't feel they got more than their money's worth from The Boss and his band.  Fans in Boston were treated to consecutive nights in the city's baseball cathedral, Fenway Park this week, each of which were good enough to make even the most die-hard BoSox fan banish all thoughts about what a miserable season the regular occupants of the fabled field are having this season.  Both nights, Bruce and the band emerged to Take Me Out To The Ballgame. Over the two nights he and the E Street Band played 59 songs, some tailor made for the setting, including Dirty Water, the Standells tribute to Boston that is in regular rotation during Sox home games.  Other covers Bruce and the band busted out included Knock On Wood, the great Detroit Medley (which many probably expected Peter Wolf of the J. Geils Band to join the lineup for but he didn't), an acoustic Who'll Stop The Rain (which didn't), Summertime Blues, Quarter To Three, Boom, Boom and tour staple Twist & Shout
