Personally, I think God walks the earth in the visage of Bruce Springsteen. The last time I saw him, in September, on The Rising Tour was one of the best nights of my entire life. I screamed myself hoarse and I couldn't take for days afterward. That being said, Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band Live In Barcelona sucked so much assssssssssssssssssssssssssssss! There was no ass left to suck! It was freaking terrible. I wanted to recapture how I felt at the last concert and I thought this DVD would do the trick. How wrong i was. Uninspired playing, mugging for the cameras, overdone sentimentality........It was just plain bad. It wasn't at all like the night I saw him. I had high hopes that Bruce was going to record and release another live album when finished up the tour in New York in October but I haven't heard anything yet.
