Many fans are suggesting the current Springsteen tour is one of the best runs ever, and I've gotta agree. There's a crazy, anything goes spirit to the shows, totally infectious and uplifting and all that good rock and roll stuff.
Most fun (for me), Springsteen has been doing a lot of wild cover songs in a "stump the band" segment. Some really cool, never before played tunes. For a taste, check out Springsteen's official site. Right now, they've got a frustratingly edited video of the band doing "Expressway To Your Heart," but you never know what's coming next. Other covers this tour included the Ramones' "I Wanna Be Sedated", the Clash's "London Calling", the Troggs' "Wild Thing", Johnny Rivers' "Seventh Son", "Hang on Sloopy" (!) -- the hits just coming!
The videos don't stay up for long, so you need to check back to the site fairly frequently for a full dose of Springsteen-iana. Clearly they are recording every show from the tour, so here's hoping there's another official "live record" to commemorate this stand...
