I personally saw 2-3 people recite every rap Bruce did. Eric, NJ extends 200 miles south of the Meadowlands parking lot. For much of the state, Philly is an extra 30-45 minute drive than the Meadowlands. With a new arena and a final good-bye to a historic arena, many NJ fans are more than happy to make the trip. Willie Nelson headlines the inaugural concert this Wednesday night.
Times are good.
Bruce is great. Low arbitrons were the culprit. As I remember, WNEW was the, if not one of the stations that first gave Bruce major airplay, including the infamous Bottom Lines concerts. Though sometimes a sleeper show, more often fascinating with great guests and songs that you'll never hear elsewhere. Finally, I'd like to warn those travelling to Philly from out of state to be aware of the flooding from Hurricane Floyd.
