Me calling you a troublesome lil faggot is also free speech & as a side benefit it's indisputably factual. You've been banned elsewhere & you'll end up getting banned here. Stop baiting me, you ugly lil troll. I've ignored all your other gibes but if you want to start a flame war better get Gazza's permission first, Misty. Elsewise  drop your wussiness and SHUT THE FUCK UP. When it comes to me, you've got no free speech. I know your insane lil game & you will find someone else to ahrass. Got it, loser? TIA indeed, you stupid creep.

Eww,that is horrible sound. Plus those annoying clicks from people posting messages. Awww,the Boss deserves better. ...Ok,got rid of the clicking noise,now no sound at all. Geez these feeds have been terrible.

Bruce Springsteen
Max's Kansas City (New York, NY)
01.31.1973

Recorded just a few weeks after the release of his first album, Greetings From Asbury Park, NJ, and about seven months before the release of his sophomore disc, The Wild, The Innocent & The E Street Shuffle, this historic performance is one of the earliest professional recordings of the Boss and his legendary E Street Band, who are heard here in their original line-up. It was recorded as part of the first installment of the King Biscuit Flower Hour syndicated radio show, which aired on February 18, 1973. The premiere KBFH program featured a triple bill of Blood, Sweat & Tears, Mahavishnu Orchestra, and Springsteen, each recorded live in concert just weeks before.

As an interesting historical footnote, the original King Biscuit broadcast featured one song each from Springsteen and Mahavishnu Orchestra while including five from Blood, Sweat & Tears. Springsteen was still relatively unknown at the time. He was booked in New York for six nights at Max's Kansas City, playing short sets while opening for Biff Rose. The songs presented here were recorded on the first of those six nights, when he played two shows. Tracks one through six are from the early show; the last two tracks were recorded at the beginning of the late show.

This performance finds him young, irrepressible, and full of 23-year-old vigor and optimism. Three of the songs featured at this NYC show ("Spirit In The Night", "Mary Queen Of Arkansas” and "Does This Bus Stop At 82nd Street?”) are from his first album, and "Wild Billy’s Circus Story” would appear on his second, but the other four songs were compositions that never appeared on any official Springsteen studio LP. Two of these, "Bishop Danced” and "Thundercrack” did show up on the 1999 four-CD box of outtakes, B sides, and unreleased demos entitled Tracks, but the other two, "Saga Of The Architect Angel" and "Song To The Orphans" (included here as an outtake) were never released on any official Springsteen LP or box set.

Bruce Springsteen remains America’s greatest modern rock artist, and even though this show was recorded thirty five years ago, it holds up brilliantly. Of this E Street Band line-up only Clemons, Tallent, and Federici remain, yet the essence and musical chops of this amazing group are still very much a part of Springsteen’s sound. Through this historical moment in radio history as part of the first King Biscuit broadcast, Springsteen gained enough exposure and positive response to warrant his own set on the soon-to-become popular radio series. And the rest, as they say, is history.

A NEW JERSEY AND LONG ISLAND STATE OF MIND(backstreets.com)

Benefit at NYC's Hammerstein Ballroom brings together Bruce and Billy -- and Barack
At the "Change Rocks" benefit concert in support of Barack Obama, Bruce Springsteen and Billy Joel joined forces, the favorite sons of New Jersey and Long Island meeting in Manhattan to co-headline a show that also featured John Legend and India.Arie. Caroline Kennedy introduced the artists, and Bruce had a few more words before the performances began -- first of all, about the undercard: "Billy and I thought we could sing until we heard India and John rehearsing earlier. We're just pretending." As for the main event, Bruce described it as a historic meeting of New Jersey and Long Island, suggesting (as you might imagine from this old demi-rivalry) that it wasn't the smoothest of collaborations: "I like to rehearse, Billy doesn't." He went on to joke that the whole affair was somewhat Palin-esque: "A lot of last-minute cramming and confident presentation... faking it like you really know what you're doing, but you don’t. Hopefully no one will leave the room screaming like in rehearsals!"

Legend opened with his majestic solo piano take on U2's "Pride (In the Name of Love)," and was soon joined by Bruce, Patti Scialfa, and India.Arie for his new song, "If You're Out There." After short sets from Legend and Arie, Bruce was back for a little acoustic set of his own, with solo readings of "The Promised Land" and "This Hard Land." In between he gave a version of his recent Vote for Change stump speech, saying that electing Obama was just the beginning to "taking back our country," and that it would take everyone "from Jersey, Long Island, and all points west" to rebuild this hard land. Joel followed with his band (which would be the backing band for the rest of the evening) for two of his own songs, "Miami 2017" and "Baby Grand."

The main event featured the Boss and the Piano Man together. Backed by Joel's band, along with Patti and E Street pianist Roy Bittan, Springsteen and Joel traded off songs from their deep catalogs, opening with "Tenth Avenue Freeze-out" and closing with "River of Dreams." On "Tenth," Bruce sang, "They made that change uptown and the Piano Man joined the band..." and "when Jersey and Long Island bust this city in half!" Joel dedicated "Movin' Out" to George Bush and Dick Cheney. On "Thunder Road," simultaneous piano action from Billy ("I like this one!") and Roy. This was truly a blended set -- not only trading off songs, but trading off verses as they sang on each other's songs. Bruce was surprised that Billy didn't know "Spirit in the Night" -- he called out chords throughout -- but was really into his own verse on "New York State of Mind," a highlight of the night. Legend and Arie joined in as well, singing on "Spirit," "The Rising," and "Glory Days."

In the encore, one more Bruce tune: "Born to Run," Bruce leaping onto Billy's piano -- with permission! -- and the pair sharing a hug, Billy giving Bruce a kiss on the cheek. "People Get Ready" spotlighted all of the evening's performers, who then brought Barack Obama to the stage. Some inspiring words from Obama himself, who also offered plenty of praise for the night's artists:

    I want to thank John, India, all the wonderful musicians, and especially the two giants -- Bruce and Billy -- that I grew up listening to, and whose songs give a voice to ordinary folks that go to work each day wondering how they are going to pay all their bills and afford healthcare.  They write inspiring songs about the problems of everyday heroes that have been ignored for far too long by those in Washington, and that is what this campaign has been all about. I thank them for bringing all of you here together tonight.  We have a lot of work to do in the next 18 days. So call your neighbors and e-mail all your friends and keep this great spirit from this room going until election day. One voice can inspire and change the mood of a room, can inspire and change the mood of a city, can inspire and change the mood of a state, can inspire and change the mood of a country, and can inspire and change the mood of the world.

Obama also revelaed that, backstage as they were listening to the show, he told his wife: "The reason I'm running for president is because I can't be Bruce Springsteen." The night closed with "Signed, Sealed, Delivered," Legend taking lead, with Obama and his wife Michelle dancing and clapping along.
