Sunday was certainly Bruce Springsteen evening and with a 3 hours concert it wouldnt be too much to say that he owned the evening - certainly he ruled it! big time!

But before the concert it was time to get into the stadium ‘Parken’ in Copenhagen, a small talk, loosing our friends Christian and Steffan (and the beers they were getting for us - bad luck!) and for Benjamins girlfriend Mercedes to tell her stand-in what kind of food her horse would like for dinner…  not kiddin…

And Mercedes mobiles the dinner plan for her horse….

And then it was time for Bruce Springsteen to rock us.
It was in fact an incredible concert full of energy - even though I’m not the biggest Springsteen fan I liked it a lot. Of course I was most interested in the elder stuff, but the 4 numbers from the new record and the country crap for the end couldnt change my impression that this was a great concert and I would do it again and again….
And with the band in a ‘greatest hit’-mode (Bruce collected big signs/whishes from the crowd and they played some ‘not played live for a long time’ songs) and full on energy nothing could stop them…

I can recommend all new bands and quite a lot of old ones to check this big setlist and the 3 hours of music - you could learn a lot here - dont come around with a small 1 hour and 45 minutes concert (tops for many) when this 58 yo still going strong rock’er still gives us 3 hours of full energy…

Tomorrow evening is the rather hyped ‘All 90S - DEN STORE 90ER FEST’ (the big 9o’s party) party in Forum in Copenhagen and of course I’m going… gonna be fun to see those old acts again.. Dr. Alban, the Swedish dentist, are among them and he gotta be around fifty…
The bands are:
Right Said Fred
Dr. Alban
Haddaway
Robin S
Corona
Snap!

Pretty impressive that this party is totally sold out…

I love the new Sepiamusic first single ‘Crazy Burn’ and it turns out that Michael and Erin has decided to make it a free download - at least for now…
Sepiamusic’s first album ‘Prototype’ was great, but from what secrets I can squeeze out of Michael Miltersen ‘Trenches’ will be even better. Judging by ‘Crazy Burn’ and expecting the rest of the album to be down the same road, I think I’m close to have the same high expectations as Michael… looking very much forward to the coming releash (and releash party) of Trenches.
I’m certainly a Crazy Burn fan!

Yes, its great news - Portishead will send out their first album in 11 years this April. Even better is the fact that they will come around Copenhagen for a concert on Friday 4. April. - soooo cool!

I’m sorry (and so was he… big time) that I forget to mention my friend Christian Hartvig as the co-pusher of Bruce Springsteen concert tickets for the summer 2008 concert!
Thanx Christian!

My brother Peter called me from early morning because the tickets for this summers Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band in Copenhagen was on sale from 10.00 and Peter was at that time busy with his hands inside some strangers head… Peter is a dentist…
Anyway I was of course ready when the online sales started at 10.00 and as usual the website runned by Billetlugen was working like SHIT! I never got through at all - that site and their servers are a disgrace… and just now its down for repair… lamers!
BUT luckily my best friend Benjamin decided to go to a shop to get the tickets at 10.00 - and he managed to get 2 extra, sooooo Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band tickets for Peter and I, too!! Thanx Benjamin!

Its a tough job being a football field getting smashed week after week by football players and Parken (the Danish national stadium) is also using the stadium for concerts ect…  so whats the secret?
A lot work, fresh grass and a tan…

Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band will be in Copenhagen to give a concert 8th December and my brother Peter will get the tickets for us - eventhough they we’re sold out within 20 mins…

Nemo is making the crowd ready for the battling MC’s

And the final of the day - Pede B kicking Fatomets ass…
