KANSAS CITY, Mo. (Oct. 26, 2009) – Due to a death in Bruce’s immediate family, tonight’s show at Sprint Center has been unavoidably cancelled. All tickets will be refunded at the point of purchase. Bruce and The E Street Band deeply appreciate the understanding of our Kansas City audience and look forward to returning at the earliest opportunity.
En el concierto del próximo jueves, 29 de octubre, en el Madison Square Garden, Bruce Springsteen cantará con el legendario cantante de soul Sam Moore. Será con motivo del concierto para el Rock’n’roll Hall of Fame and Museum.
Anteriormente Springsteen y Moore habían colaborado en el último disco de éste, Overnight Sensation, y años antes el duo ya se unió en el estudio durante las sesiones de grabación de Human Touch, en 1991.
Los espectaculares conciertos en el Spectrum de Filadelfia y el recuerdo del inolvidable recital de la gira Magic en agosto del 2008 habían creado unas expectativas enormes para el concierto de St.Louis celebrado anoche. Y eso hizo que en parte fuera una decepción, pues el concierto no pasó del standard habitual de esta parte de la gira.
Sonó Born to Run al completo, más algunas rarezas a petición del respetable: «For You» (con Springsteen interpretándola en solitario, sentado al piano), «Roll Over Beethoven» de Chuck Berry y la recuperada «Surprise, Surprise», para finalizar de nuevo con «Rosalita». La gira continúa esta noche en Kansas City, donde le toca el turno al álbum Born in the U.S.A.

The spectacular shows at the Spectrum in Philadelphia, along with the memories from 2008’s off-the-charts show in the city had created big expectations for last night’s show in St.Louis. And the show, as good as this part of the tour is, was a bit of a disapointment. Still a solid performance, with a rather standard set list.
Born to Run was played entirely, plus a few rarities off sign requests: «For You» (a great, solo piano version), Chuck Berry’s «Roll Over Beethoven» and the return of «Surprise, Surprise», followed by a great «Detroit Medley» and some more encores, until the final «Rosalita». «What Love Can Do» was setlisted, but finally skipped. The tour stops tonight in Kansas City, where the scheduled full album to perform is Born in the U.S.A.
