Have fun guys! The Perth show was a cracker

[Fuzz]

Damn that's far away from the stage. How is Ken gonna get up and dance with Bruce? Do the seats come with binoculars and a small radio to listen to the telecast of the show?

[bummy]

Enjoy Guys, seeing The Boss in the hunter valley on Saturday night for the first time !

[LordAnubis]

Ken is sitting in the wrong spot isn't he?

[Jeremy Festa]

Excellent. Enjoy.

some songs rarely played. and one where he gave the band a serve, several times. bit shorter than most at around 3 hours. but he really did include some classics and gave it everything.

Hey Guys,

That looks like a tremendously enjoyable concert and time spent together!

Thank you and best wishes,
Curtiss

Sounds like you had a great time. - - You brought back memories of the first time I heard a Springsteen song. I was a college kid and it was Tenth Avenue Freeze Out. During a time inundated with disco I thought "Man, I gotta hear more from that guy !"

So true so true Ken how silly of me to confuse who i meant 

[El Presidente]

It all seemed so familiar.....and then it dawned on me. It was like a three hour deck review with pictures. 

 

Springsteen is certainly a brilliant performer and I did enjoy it...had a great time 

The Springsteen crowd are completely in awe. It is man love of the highest order. There is some "Trekkie" cult going on that I just don't connect to and that is fine.  

I mean....look at the adoration in this shot 

 

The crowd looked stunned when he finished at the 3 hour mark. The disappointment was palpable which is testament to how much they treasure him. 

The poor bloke is near 70 and had given everything. Cut him a break  (Bruce....not Ken.) 

So...come 10:30pm I broke out the abseiling gear and rappelled down from the highest  peak of the entertainment centre. ken broke free of the huge crowd tucking and rolling to the VIP carpark. 

VIP carpark you ask?...yes...ken arrived so early to the concert that there was no one there. He could park where he wanted. 

Many thanks for a great evening Ken!  Happy Valentines Day mate. 

 

* Bruce is the guy on stage with the light on him....I think. 

[JohnS]

You lucky guys! You were so far away that you were literally 'dancing in the dark'! I'm glad you all had a great time!

With Ken being such a huge Bruce fan I assumed you guys would be right up front.  Glad to hear you survived and that a good time was had by all. 

[PigFish]

... is that blood running out of your ears, or am I seeing things??? -LOL

Glad you had a good time. -R

The best part is that Ken will find a way to secure a bootleg audio recording of the concert so Rob can enjoy it ad infinitum during future reviews on the deck!  It will the beginning of a Groundhog Day time loop which will never end until Lt. Cmdr Data can find a way to encode a clue for Rob into the next time loop.

You can download all of Bruce's concerts he records each show from FOH sound board /mixing desk available in HD/audio/flac apple lossless

Ken - with those seats in the nosebleed section, you have lost your official superfan status

[SignalJoe]

I think what El Presidente has been kind enough not to mention is the reason they sat in the nose bleed section.  Apparently Bruce has a restraining order against Ken and this was as close as he was legally allowed to be. The reason why is clearly evident in the photo above.  It just screams obsessed stalker.  That or he has seen his feet in the review videos and decided distance is the better part of valor.  

 

 

 

Just kidding Ken hope you enjoyed the show.  

 

[Ken Gargett]

first, ayala with his super wide angle lens made it look so much smaller than it was. we were much closer than the impression gives.

but they were the best seats i could get as i had to wait for rob 'continents drift faster' ayala to make a decision on coming or not (brownie points for Di eventually won out). back again tonight.
