Oh, what a night this was. A rock and roll show, special guests and even an on stage proposal by one of the guests. It was also the start of a new show feature..."Stump The E-Street Band."

As always, comment and critique are welcome.

Starting with the last tour, there has been a section of the show that has Bruce collecting request sign from the audience. He then goes through them and honors some of those requests. This evening the first sign he chose was for The Ramones "I Wanna Be Sedated." Every night since then he has picked out non-E-Stree Band selections to try to stump the band.

4. A young boy, friend of the boy who gave Bruce the above sign, had Bruce give him his own, personal harmonica solo and then gave the boy his harmonica.

Dropkick Murphy member Tim Breenan pulled a fast one on his girlfriend Diana and proposed to her in front of the Gahdan crowd. She said yes, by the way. A similar photo of mine was picked up by The Boston Globe.

Now a couple of various E-Street Band Members, Dropkick Murphy member and Bruce Springteen. In photo 8 Bruce has been "gifted" with a Boston Bruins jersey.

Wow...it seems # 8 is a winner in most peoples book. I must admit that it was a wonderful energetic moment on stage...pure joy in music.

Well, I do have quite a subject that is effectively my "Boss." He often makes it look easy for him and me.

Awesome shots here, I love them all. I heard this was an amazing show also.

Just curious if any of these shots were taken with the 200mm 2.0?

EXCELLENT SET! :)
Image # 8 looks more like that guy is trying to choke him out than gifting a Bruins Jersy though. I'm glad you explained this. :lol:
An onstage proposal? How could she refuse? :p

Excellent work! I met the Dropkick's a few years ago and hung out with them for a night. Wicked cool guys, lots of fun. I'm sure this show will be one of the highlights of the tour!

Thank you. All the photos except # 8 were taken with the 200m f/2.0 IS L. The lens is quite simply the best glass I have ever used.

Thanks. I'm sure it would have been rather awkward for everyone there is she said no.

Perhaps the tour, but American Land was definately the best it ever was and will probably ever be.

Simply amazing. And boy does Springsteen look good. I can only hope to be that in shape at his age.
