Oh for fuck's sake, he's not amazing; he stumbled going up on the final step. One step, going forward. It's not like fell right off the stage, landed on his back, and then bounced back up.

Even gravity and or god can’t stop Bruce and the band from finishing their marathon encore of “Glory Days” currently at 12 minutes and counting.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑02 Jun 2023, 6:27amHe fell forward, onto the stage.

Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Re: The Dizzle and Jimmy Jizzle's Thread o'Bruce
I’m about half way through. Was not expecting full throated endorsements of the Wrecking Ball album and in particular its production.

Re: The Dizzle and Jimmy Jizzle's Thread o'Bruce
I finished this up the other day. Great work all around. Lyrics are always the third or fourth thing I notice in music, so I learned a lot about that album lyrically that I was otherwise unaware of. My greatest issue with Wrecking Ball is the production/arrangements. There just isn't much of a band feel. And this is a thing that's just my thing, but I swear the clap tracks are all synth clap tracks. They bug the hell out of me and I'm a proponent of the idea that a clap track can elevate a song. But yeah, it's not much of an E Street album which isn't really a bad thing necessarily, but I do feel it lacks an organic feel.
BTW, keep me posted on your next pods. And if you need someone who can talk endlessly and enthusiastically about Wild and Innocent, I know a guy...

Re: The Dizzle and Jimmy Jizzle's Thread o'Bruce
Nice one, man, thank you. As we're both writers, it's natural the project is going to be more word than music based. May take you up on the Wild & Innocent offer.matedog wrote: ↑18 Jul 2023, 11:21amI finished this up the other day. Great work all around.

I'm listening to The Ties That Bind set today and I kind of dig the original (unreleased) 10-track version of what would become The River.

Re: The Dizzle and Jimmy Jizzle's Thread o'Bruce
I always liked Cindy. There are a lot of little changes too: different lead vocal on Ties, different verse on Price You Pay, lacking SVZ’s vocal on the last chorus of River.WestwayKid wrote: ↑21 Jul 2023, 12:52pmI'm listening to The Ties That Bind set today and I kind of dig the original (unreleased) 10-track version of what would become The River.
River sessions is an almost Sandinista like exercise of what you’d include as a double and even as a single.
