Unless Van Zandt is going to break into a Silvio Dante monologue, I can’t imagine being less enthused for a concert.

Did John Angelos and the Mayor hold a press conference?

Glad to know he is a lifelong fan of his hometown.

Orioles chairman and CEO John Angelos said in a statement that “as a lifelong fan of Bruce Springsteen and of my hometown, it’s an honor” to announce the concert.

Not everyone is a fan of their home town.

I just saw him in Orlando for the first time.  He really put on a great show.  I'm 61, and not really a huge Boss fan, but my best friend bought the tickets and came out from California and took my wife and I.  About 2 hours and 45 minutes.  Glad I saw it.

I'm moving close to 63.  I went to see the Foo Fighters a few years ago at Merriweather Post because I wanted to see them while they were still relevant and I was still able to stand up for 3 hours

Took my son to see the Police when they were at the Virgin Festival at Pimlico in '07 for much the same reason.

But, I couldn't imagine going to see the Stones (or another band from my youth) today, even though I wish like hell I'd at least seen them in the 70's or 80's.  If you can't get no satisfaction by the time you're 79 years old, you ain't never gettin' any.

I think very few singers age well.

I'm a huge Peter Gabriel fan but I feel more trepidation than anticipation when it comes to i/o.

He might help.  He has had a lot of hits.

He could be another threat on the basepaths.  He was born to run. 

 

On another note,  I would request he include my favorite song of his on his set list: The Ghost of Tom Joad.

What about the Rage Against the Machine version? Tom Morello has recorded stuff with Springsteen. Also did guitar once with E Street band on the Australian tour.

Didn't know the Orioles have an entertainment division. Premier entertainment venue? Three big concerts ever.

"When I came to open up one morning, there you were with your head half in the toilet, your hair was in the toilet water... disgusting."

He is playing at the new and improved Baltimore Arena now CFG Arena...

If you're gonna go old school, it's the Baltimore Civic Center.  Home of the Bullets.  Good thing they changed that name.  Crimes much better now.
