Bear with me....

I know he's 73 & he's got 3 decades on me but I am becoming obsessed after seeing him in concert last week.

I've found some old concert videos from the 70s and 80s and can't believe how magnetic he is and was on stage!

I love my DP but AIBU to say I wouldn't miss a beat to disappear with Bruce for a night?!

Look for the laughing shirtless pic when he's young...check out the trousers.

You're welcome :)

Patti is a lucky, lucky woman!

That is pretty much my ideal physique too!

Pointynoseowner · 11/07/2023 22:37

And just how am I supposed to sleep now 🙄 He is beyond gorgeous, sigh !!

SageHearts · 11/07/2023 22:41

Springsteen is amazing, even more so when he tours with the E Street band. I’ve been to a LOT of his concerts worldwide but the recent Murrayfield concert blew the rest out of the water this tour. 😉

I'm putting off sleep by scrolling through endless photos and watching YouTube as DP is currently away and I've got tomorrow morning off.

I saw him in London again.
If I didn't have work commitments this week and next I would be booking flights for any other European venue before the tour ends. I cannot believe he's still so amazing after so many decades.

Yep and his music’s not bad either.

I spent my teenage years being embarrassed my parents liked his music and now the tables have turned!

Watch some videos from the 80s. Particularly One Step Up and I’m On Fire.

Fucking hell, I’d climb him like a fucking tree.

In fact, I too saw him last Thursday, OP. Still would.

He was phenomenal.

LunaNorth · 11/07/2023 23:03

I have the above pic in my camera roll too 😂

I'm on Fire and Human Touch have been my faves this evening 🔥

I told DP at the gig that I would have left him there and then for a night with Bruce. He laughed it off like I was joking......

Such sexy lyrics, too. There’s a song on Tracks called Sad Eyes which was, ahem, formative in my youth.

Every day here you come walking
I hold my tongue, I don't do much talking
You say you're happy and doing fine
Well go ahead, baby, I got plenty of time

Because sad eyes never lie
Because sad eyes never lie

Well, for a while I've been watching you steady
Ain't gonna move 'til you're good and ready
You show up and then you shy away
But I know pretty soon you'll be walkin' this way

Because sad eyes never lie
Sad eyes never lie

Baby, don't you know I don't care?
Don't you know that I've been there
Well, if something in the air feels a little unkind
Don't worry darling, it'll slip your mind

I know you think you'd never be mine
Well, that's okay, baby, I don't mind
That shy smile's sweet, that's a fact
Go ahead, I don't mind the act
Here come all dressed up for a date
Well, one more step and it'll be too late

Blue, blue ribbon in your hair
Like you're so sure I'll be standing here

I guess sad eyes never lie
I guess sad eyes never lie
I guess sad eyes never lie
Sad eyes never lie

Tbh I think DH would let me have a little go on Bruce. He loves him more than I do, but in a slightly different way…

AgathaSpencerGregson · 11/07/2023 23:08

He is insanely charismatic.

My DP has a thing for redheads so maybe I could get him to distract Patti!
