This is just a quick message coming from London, well I’m a lying on a fold out bed next to Erin. Things are all good with the world. I have just returned from seeing Bruce Springsteen at Wembley Area and boy did he perform. I think John was a little upset that he didn’t sing My City of Ruins, but overall its didn’t bother me. The opening of Blinded By the Light and versions of Does This Bus Stop at 82nd Street, The River, Further On (Up the Road) and Long Time Comin were all amazing. The arena was forced to its feet by Bruce demanding that we all stand, for the rest of the night I kept my booty shaking.
