When this comes on the radio, a middle aged woman in a grey city downs tools/ lifts hands from the keyboard and sings along like the teenager she once was. Swaying might also happen.
When she’s seen him perform this live, her eyes have welled up. Not as much as she welled up a few weeks ago when she wasn’t well enough to use her long held ticket to see him locally. (Spurs Fan kindly downplayed how fabulous the show was.)
I thought you were still a teenager!
I just behave like one sometimes 🙂
We all need to let the inner teenager out on a regular basis. Anyway, swaying is exercise! 😉
I am ever so sorry you couldn’t make it to the concert. That’s just not fair.

I would have had a long walk, followed by NO SEAT. I may need to borrow a shooting stick/ seat thing next time: have you one I could use?
Bruce would say, “I want to guard your dreams and visions”. Tom Waits would tell ya, “You really got to hold on”. Who you going to believe. The troubadour in tight jeans or the poet in wearing a stupid hat.
Depends on the day that’s in it Hudson!
I’m really sorry you couldn’t go.
(PS, fellow readers, I’ve met Speccy, she is NOT middle-aged).
I knew it!
Thanks Tinman, but I know you’re just relieved not to have me gush on about him again 🙂
There’s nothing wrong with swaying at any age. 🙂 Sorry you couldn’t make it to the concert, Fiona.
I do all the swaying Andra!
I hope you also grab a handy microphone (mop handle, spatula) to sing into.
So sorry you missed the concert. I saw him in Cardiff and he was … oh, all right you know.
Liz, I think you know me already 🙂
Yeah, I think the whole tour has been a bit like that. ‘Meh’ all around the world…
The Boss rules 🙂
we went to see him 8 or 9 years ago, leaving girls with my mum.
“Now, remember, granny is the boss”
“But, you said Bruce was The Boss”
Music can so often make me feel like a teenager again…and that takes a little imagination. 🙂 I am so very sorry you missed the concert. That’s a big disappointment, I’m sure. oxo
Yes, Debra, but the right call. I’ve been fortunate to see him several times already, which made it easier to be sensible about the whole thing!
Oh, I’m glad that you had already been to a concert at least. I had to explain to my mother who Bruce Springsteen was the other day … 😉
