Bruce Springsteen - Badlands (The Legendary 1979 No Nukes Concerts)

[@JodiMcClure]

I was 16. Five of us kids took a the train together from Matawan to the Garden specifically to see Bruce. He came on last, the show ran late, and we were all worried we'd miss the last train back to home but we didn't want to leave. There were hundreds of us from the Jersey Shore, crammed in the exit vestibules, ready to run to the escalators the second he left the stage, but his encore was fabulous and went on so long. Every one of us stayed. Then we stampeded down to the train tracks, terrified that the train would be gone, but it WAITED! It waited for us. They KNEW! :) One of the best nights ever! :)

This was an amazing performance, 79‘s the first of many times I got to see the boss live. Are used to try to explain to people who weren’t Springsteen fans it’s a different type of energy, different type of vibe. I never could properly explain why I thought Bruce was the greatest live performer I’d ever seen. But there’s no doubt in my mind that he is. I will say this though ever since the big man is passed, I haven’t been able to go to another show. I don’t know that I will because to me a big man with so much a big part of the show and the music it wouldn’t be the same without him.

Steve, Don't cheat yourself out of something as truly wonderful as seeing Bruce live in concert. If you have a chance...GO!!! Clarence's nephew Jake does a fantastic job filling his uncle's shoes and Bruce and the band, although they're older (just like the rest of us), still put on a truly fantastic 3 hour show!

Listen, back in 1978 I slept on a sidewalk all night to get tickets to see him in a small venue and was a die-hard fan several years before this concert-- but with all due respect, his songbook-- which is amazing-- still pales in comparison to Dylan's. Pretty sure he would agree.

But - when it comes to playing older songs, like Badlands, Born to run and The promised land they lack a lot in energy/intensity nowadays. They need a certain level of attack or "hunger" - and though the slow pacing can work great for songs like The river - it just doesn't cut it for me when it comes to the more energetic songs.

The year i discovered Bruce at 13. Met him at 50 and one of the best days ever. Over 40 something shows Bruce is the soundtrack of my life

How a voice can sound so destroyed yet so powerfull at the same time is beyond me. Bruce is a madman!

I thank the Universe for being so kind and to bring us talented and outstanding musicians such as Bruce Springsteen an old time favourite. It brings me back in time my teen years. Wow how blessed we all are! ❤

Legendary and then some. Still the most phenomenal live act I've ever seen. The E Street Band never took a night off. Pure outright passion and joy running through every minute.

We all were so much younger then.

Yeah, I spent the bulk of my 18th birthday (12 hours) waiting for tickets at Airport Plaza in Hazlet 1984. Best birthday present I ever got for myself when I got tickets. Pool at home was refreshing after that hot July day. Thanks mom and dad. And Bruce too!!!
