A #ticket 🧵on Springsteen:

In the last 25 years I estimate that I have seen about 700 concerts & well over 1,000 performances.

I’ve written professionally about a slew of these shows, I’ve bought tickets during pre sales, regular on sales, day-of, & in the parking lot. 1/
53 of these shows have been for Bruce Springsteen. He’s the best live performer of the rock era & in ‘99 when the band reunited I swore I would see him every chance I could get.

The thing is after ‘99, he stopped having cheap tickets $50 & under) but he was always fair. 2/
I had some tours where money wasn’t an issue & other years where I’d sell books, music or other items to ensure I could afford the $100 ticket. I had better than average seats 2/3 of the time I went to see him but I could always find my way in the house. Always. 3/

This hit my timeline again yesterday, for obvious reasons. I just loved catching up on #Glastonbury2022 and reflecting on the art and business of making music. To most of us, the first part is totally alien. Seeing McCartney create......
I dug out this scene from the massively underated Scorcese TVSeries #vinyl.



Isn't that just amazing?

For anyone who wants to know how the industry was, watch Vinyl. I'm not talking retail, or MTV/radio, music publishing....I mean a record label.
#springsteen did something very similar with his guitar during this amazing Keynote speech.

In itself, the talk is unmissable. So don't. He explains the history of music thru chords.

In una selva di alberi selvatici
Ho tirato quel filo fastidioso
Sono caduto in ginocchio
Ho preso la mia penna e mi sono fasciato la testa
Ho cercato di mettere insieme tutto ciò che il mio cuore ha trovato sincero
E l’ho inviato nella mia lettera a te #Springsteen #LetterToYou
Le cose trovate nei momenti difficili e in quelli buoni
Le ho scritte tutte con l’inchiostro e con il sangue
Ho scavato nel profondo della mia anima
E firmato col mio vero nome
E l’ho inviato nella mia lettera a te
Nella mia lettera a te
Ho preso tutte le mie paure e i miei dubbi
Nella mia lettera a te
Tutte le cose difficili che ho trovato
Nella mia lettera a te
Tutto quello che ho trovato sincero
E l’ho inviato nella mia lettera a te

Depuis mes 18 ans et mon premier concert de lui, je voue un culte à Bruce #Springsteen. Il est avec moi tous les jours dans les bons et mauvais moments.

#ConfinementJour6, ma playlist de ses morceaux les plus puissants pour tenir, danser, vivre, lutter ✊ deezer.com/playlist/74150… Image
"Into the Fire", forcément numéro 1. Écrite pour les pompiers morts le 11 septembre 2001, elle est aujourd'hui pour nos soignants.

"May your strength give us strength" 🙏
"We Take Care of Our Own", pour se rappeler qu'il faut #ResterChezVous, même si c'est long. #Confinement et respect des gestes sauveront des vies, dont celles de nos proches.
