The show was fantistic. The sound was brilliant. .
The venue was in a crap location though. Hard to belive that Hampden Park, Scotlands National stadium transport links are so poor, The nearest rail station Mount Florida is a joke and has not been upgraded, same with the roads totally gridlocked after a concert.
Most people had no choice but to walk back to town

I took my youngest daughter (who is reasonably into Bruce) for an unforgettable experience - she loved the show tho took a while to get into it mainly 'cos we were standing and it was so tightly packed she couldn't see a thing for the first few songs but as the crowd moved a bit both she and I had better views (we're both small!). She would def go again 'tho I would prob get seats for a better view. Altogether we had a brill evening and I loved every min of it - what a performer he is!

Went to sunny Spain to see Bruce,to avoid the lousy British weather,and ended up soaked after being hosed down twice,Went to check stadium early & got blue wristband for front section of pitch,Faultless performance,sound & good choice of songs&mad spanish fans,couldnt be better,even my mates who were nearer the back said it was the best gig they"d seen mainly due to the size of the place & the atmosphere from the crowd ,played from 10pm-1.15am,then we ended up at Heartbreak after show party till 6am,U2 at wembley 2 weeks later couldnt compare to this place,stuck up in 3rd tier with dodgy sound ,a busload of japanese tourists & herded like sheep down wembley way.avoid!!

An absolutely phenomenal evening. I never thought I'd get to see the man live in my lifetime, but luckily got the chance. Over 3 hours of non-stop music from the master. Unforgettable energy from a man who still out rocks most of his younger, less talented rivals.

What a night... everything was perfect... the organisation was smooth, getting to the arena was easy and efficient, as was leaving from it. Bruce was great, particularly lively and hot, and it was thanks to the great, fantastic Valladolid crowd... Valladolid you ROCK! No one was sitting after 1 minute the concert started, everybody happy, dancing, singing, all in harmony, it was a JOY FESTIVAL! Thanks to all the people of Valladolid for making this a saturday night I will never forget. Clearly Bruce felt it like I did, he was phenomenal

My wife and I travelled from Scotland to Valladolid to see The Boss and the E Street Band three weeks after seeing the concert in Glasgow.
What an amazing experience! We had a wonderful weekend in Spain with the concert being the highlight. It was so nice to attend a stadium concert in lovely warm weather for a change instead of standing in the usual downpour that always seem to arrive on cue when a band arrive on stage in Britain!!!!

Bruce and the E Street Band stun Galician fans!

Auditorio Monte do Gozo @

- Sun 2 Aug 2009 @

Favourite moment: Nils' rendition of 'A Rianxeira' on the accordion. @

Posted 06/08/2009

Location: Manchester, England

As we tumbled, frenzied, into the huge open-air stadium at Monte do Gozo, amidst shouts of "dimision! organizacion!" from the angry Galician crowd towards the disorganisation and lack of police presence in the few hours leading up to the concert, I wondered how even Bruce and the E Street Band were going to fill the massive expanse of space with their glorious sound. But they did. And it was the BEST concert I have ever been to.
Having seen Bruce live in Sheffield and in Old Trafford, Manchester, last year, I knew that the 40,000 fans (some American, some British, but most Galician and Spanish) would have a treat in store. However, what I could not fathom was the idea that Bruce, Clarence, Nils, Stevie and the rest could surpass themselves. But, again, they did. The fantastic setlist helped. With over 25 songs, including 'Badlands', 'Born to Run', 'Working On A Dream', 'Hungry Heart', 'This Life', 'Johnny 99', 'Out In the Street' and a softer, acoustic version of 'No Surrender', the variety of the performance, including many a crowd-pleaser, assured that the Galicians and Americans alike came alive and joined in the E Street Band's celebration of their own undeniable brilliance.
Their recognition of Galician identity, in the form of Nils' rendition of the Galician folk song, 'A Rianxeira', won over the audience within the first few seconds. As an accordion solo, it began the celebrations, and it soon evolved into an ensemble with the majority of the audience participating. Even I managed to string a bit of Galician together. All this, and Bruce's interaction with the audience, made it feel as though I had stepped into a rather large family reunion. Bruce even pulled a young girl on to the stage to dance with him to 'Dancing In the Dark'; the role taken by American star Courteney Cox in the song's music video. He even helped a little Spanish girl to practise her English by encouraging her to serenade the 40,000 "aww"-ing fans with some of his best lyrics.
Maybe it was the sheer size of saxophonist, Clarence, the shiny blonde curls of Susan, or just the awe-inspiring spectacle which Bruce and the E Street Band offered us (including hits of past musical legends, including Elvis and the Beatles!), but something made me forget that I had left my tasty 'bocadillo de jamón' in the greedy hands of my hungry father, cheering his head off on my right....

Bruce and E' Street Band show in Santiago de Compostela was my fourth chance of seeing them live and probably the greatest one. A real trip through time, with love and rock at every corner, where Bruce's energy and hapiness on stage touched everybody who was fortunate to be there. A rock and roll baptism, as Bruce would like to say. To me, an(other) unforgettable night that left me, till now, wishing with all my strenght to have the privilege of watching "my" Boss again. I love this man and I miss this great great show already.

Springsteen in Benidorm was the best ever, I have attended 8 springsteen concert over 25 years and this was the best, Cardiff last year was close but not quite as good.
Why, small simple stadium, crazy spanish crowd (many of whom didnt know what to expect and were completely blown away), Bruce and the band totally on form and in a really fun mood, holiday environment everyone having fun.

The E street band has to be the worlds greatest rock back today!!!

My partner and I travelled to Seville for the show from Scotland as it coincided with my partners 60th birthday.
From beginning to end Bruce gave an amazing full on energetic show full of great showmanship and talent.
He came on stage just after 10pm and the show finished at 1am. Three hours which went by in a blink.
Well worth the trip!

A man totally relaxed and in control with the energy of a man at least 30years younger. He held the 34,000 people in his and whilst the vast majoity of the audience was Spanish they sang allowed in English with great gusto and warmth for the man they call the Boss.
Age has not dimminshed the enjoyment that Springsteen clearly feels from a connection with the audience. A truely great performance.

Springsteen at Hampden Park was absolutely stunning. Once agin this 59 year old proved that he can put all of those younger supposedly hipper, rock and roll artists to shame. As per the rest of this tour (and any Springsteen tour for that matter) we heard a collection of American classics, modern material easilly the equal of his earlier achievements and some lesser known gems to please the hard core fans. All of this delivered with skill, artistry and no shortage of energy. I'm not sure why (he's been doing it for so long) but it is always a unique thrill to be in the presence of a man who is not afraid to demonstrate how much he enjoys what he does and genuinely thrilled to give his fans what they want.

Excellent concert, bruce was great, venue was good, but sadly sound was slightly muffled when seated in stand however when on ground level sound was exquisite.
Unfortunately Bruce had decided not to play "The River" or "Thunder Road". Two classics which I believe he should have played.
As good as the gig was, earlier this year I happened to attend Oasis's homecoming gig in Heaton Park which eclipsed Bruce in just about every aspect. Bruce seems to not play with the same heart and energy as the Gallagher Brothers.
But on the whole still a very good concert!

We had been worried about Bruce's voice, it's been a bit hoarse of late BUT he's got it back!!!!!. What a show, rock'n'roll for 3 hours in the spanish heat. Great combination of old, new, favourites and obscure. All topped off by magnificent back up from the rest of the band. Tremendous effects on big screens, clarity was superb.
Special mention for Nils Lofgren, absolutely inspired guitar playing all night and astonishing solo performance; for me we should get 2 or 3 solos from Nils at each show, he's truly amazing (almost on a par with Lindsey Buckingham and he CAN play!!!).

Best concert of my life, no doubt and I've seen many reat bands and this was my 2nd Sprigsteen show.

More than 3 hours on stage with a rock and roll show that keep everyone rocking all the time.

Truly hope that next tour will be rock and roll like this shows....some other musics would be nice but with so many grea songs in such a big career it is impossible to play all our fav songs in 1 concert.

Unforgettable, fantastic, awesome, great.....all the adjectives are not enough to describe such a performance.
