Be prepared for a zoo with the GA wristbands and a lot of whining about being "fair" and "miscommunication" and the like.  It was, for lack of a better word, a shitshow in Philly.  It will probably be a little different because a) people won't have been tailgating in the parking lot all day and b) Washingtonians don't have that special Philadelphia charm, but be prepared for a headache.

You can't talk like that on this message board.  Most of the people on this board regard BRUUUUUUUCCCCCCE!!! as the second coming.  
 
 Bruce is forever young.
 
 Bruce = rock and roll.
 
 Bruce will never die.
 
 All hail the mighty Bruce!
 
 You are not allowed to:
 
 1.)  Mock him.
 2.)  Question his relevancy.
 3.)  Make fun of his stupid Sesame Street-like lyrics.
 4.)  Question his patriotism.
 5.)  Reveal that he may be the most boring, overrated "rock star" of the 20th century.
 6.)  Look him directly in the eyes.
 7.)  Suggest that a Novocain-less root canal would be a more pleasant evening than a 97-hour "religious experience/tent revival" with Bruce, "Little Steven" and "The Big Man."
 
 For your transgressions prepare to be derided, made fun of and threatened with expulsion from the board.
 
 Brian
 
 P.S.   I on the other hand LIKE THE CUT OF YOUR JIB! [/QB][/QUOTE]
 
 
 You're a funny guy and all, but what are you talking about?  Maybe you have this confused with the Philadelphia Flyers fan board.  A lot of folks here like Springsteen, but no one talks about his relevancy, patriotism etc.  People here are pretty realistic.  Mostly.

I rather have first come first serve than the lottery.  I camped out and did 24 hours on the Rising Tour in Philly in 2002, overnight at MCI and Greensboro 27 hours, and the last ever first come first serve show Rochester, New York 3 days.  Done the Lottery for 3 shows everytime in the pit due to my abilities. :D   I did nail MSG 2 # 5 in the pit but Oakland was a close call with the lottery almost not making the pit by 5 people.  MSG 2 earlier this year was a night to never forget.  Rare railing spot most people never get in front of Bruce.  I'd say blame the whinners that can't take off work to put in time to get a good spot.

what abilities would those be?  ability to sneak up and cut the line?  seems to me it's all luck and nothing to do with ability, but i'd love to be told otherwise.

Brian, or as I prefer #10212...I'm a big Bruce fan and wasn't mocking him at all..sorry to let you down.    
 
 I'm happy to have a debate of Fall Out Boy Lyrics:
 One night and one more time
 Thanks for the memories
 even though they weren't so great
 "He tastes like you only sweeter"
 I was referring to the headaches I choose not to endure to get close to the stage.  I dont see the incentive to battle some of the people in that mindset as Fooer does, but more power to him/her for doing so.  
 
 I'd prefer to be in the seats so I can go to the  bathroom when Patti breaks into "Town Called Heartbreak".

Sunday, we got G.A. tickets (which I may regret, since we traded section 121 seats for 'em - -but hey, it's my friend's favorite band, it's his decision).

Arriving b/w 2-5 then the show isn't an all day process? Wish I was going...if I were, I'd want a seat.  ;)

I prefer "I'm just a notch in your bedpost,
 But you're just a line in a song." to
 
 "I got a job working construction for the Johnstown company.
 But lately there ain't been much work, on account of the economy
 Now all them things that seemed so important
 well, mister they vanished right into the air.
 Now I just act like I dont remember.
 Mary acts like she don't care."
 
 Wow!  That's awful.  He wouldn't even get a C+ on that for English Comp.
 
 I do KIND OF like that one song he sings about pussy.

at least walalce is consistent: his appreciation of lyricism is on par with his ability to appreciate good guitar playing.

So I just learned today that I'm meeting Bruce. What should I ask him?

I didn't know Bruce wrote a song about Brian Wallace.  I'll have to check out the song catalogue again.

Super Natural Abilities.  Good with odds and numbers and I do have the best luck.  If there was one person in the world you survive a fight in the middle of jungle or desert it would probably be me!!!  For those that know who I am and on the other boards yes I am that damn good!!!
