Paolo's Circus Story Posted July 3 2 hours ago, bobfan1976 said: I feel sorry for Erik. He has to come up with something new and hyperbolic once a month. It must be getting difficult to say something new! They could farm these reviews out to different writers to get different perspectives, but I guess they are really not ‘reviews’, in the sense that there will never be anything critical on them, anyway. I do think, especially as multiple shows from the same tours become available, that there could be more links made between them. Yeah we were talking about this on the Archive Rumours thread yesterday. He's an expert and I think just about everyone of us on here (Lampi excluded, probably) would love to be as knowledgeable as him about all of these shows. At the day's end, though, his job is to sell these shows and whether what he's written wherever is cringey or not, it's better for him, Nugs and Bruce Inc. that he writes like that rather than be super critical of the performances. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Daisey Jeep Posted July 4 10 hours ago, Paolo's Circus Story said: Oh God, very sorry about that. I thought it was ok to make requests for bootleg recordings. Won't happen again! I thought so long as its not an offical Bruce inc or nugs release, actual audience recordings are fine so long as no money changes hands Surley they are two completly different things 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daisey Jeep Posted July 4 Point blank is great Not sure its my favourite but im loving how this release sounds I love LINYC - i cut my ESB baby teeth on that show So im going to love this Need to go back to the start but first i listen to Youngstown You people who saw this tour faith really was rewarded 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Daisey Jeep Posted July 4 If you’re looking at Philadelphia ‘99 and thinking it is “only” 22 songs long, remember six of those tracks top the ten-minute mark on this night of epic performances. I’ve heard longer Reunion tour shows, but I’ve never heard stronger. Each E Streeter wraps themselves in musical glory: Stop it Stevie. Stop it Big Man. Stop it Roy. You’re killing us with your melodic beauty. If i could spell better id write shit like this Xxxx Nicky/ Daisey Flanagan C's playing on point blank i enjoyed so much more than the first time i heard the river from LINYC 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
