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?!

I'm thinking a trip to Canada (either one city of two) then to Seattle. I'm not sure this (plus the cost of the ticket!) is a great use of money in the current financial situation though...

VanGoghsDog · 12/07/2023 01:44

I've got five days of leave still to book.....Canada sounds good. I've been to Seattle so no need to go again.

I’ve seen him twice in concert. Just amazing.

Does anybody know where you can stream The Hyde Park set?

I wish I'd had this epiphany 20 years ago! Pre-kids and cheaper living. I could have just followed him anywhere.

I have the £ and I have so much leave left to take I could manage Sept easily. My DP might have a differing opinion to me on how both should be spent though!

He is simply amazing, in interviews and clips he always seems so nice and chilled and funny.

I've seen him 3 times (including Edinburgh just the other month) in 9 years and he still blows my mind with his energy and talent.

I did laugh when I read an article the other day when Paul McCartney said he'd told him these 3 hour shows were not fair on the rest of them who can only manage 90 mins with a break!

Off to save all those photos you've shared and swoon at them.

I saw him a couple of time at Wembley in the 80s, I must go to a recent one I think

Same - he was phenomenal. Not seen him recently.

bookworm14 · 12/07/2023 07:45

I saw him at Hyde Park last week and he was absolutely phenomenal. I totally would.

Am amazed no one has yet posted the, er, eye opening topless photo of him with very tight jeans. I would post it but am concerned it would be censored by MN! Grin

I think the photo you mention was posted early on this last night - like a public service alarm !

That’s a public service I’d happily pay a bit more council tax for, I can tell you. Fuck me sideways, he was so going to get it if I was the photographer.

How did I miss it??

thebabessavedme · 12/07/2023 08:23

Not only lovely to look at but lovely all ways round - can't say too much but my exh was on tour with him just after my dd was born, he heard I was home alone with a new baby, sent me some flowers Smile nice man.

claracluck1978 · 12/07/2023 08:37

Someone needs to tell me something bad about him before he becomes some sort of deity in this house!

I've just found a ropey YouTube video of the Broadway shows.
That's my afternoon sorted then.

i saw him on Broadway. He shook hands with everyone in the front, centre row, including me!

You…touched Bruce?

<awestruck>

Madamecholetsbonnet · 12/07/2023 14:40

He is the Absolute Living End ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

claracluck1978 · 12/07/2023 20:54

I'm 3/4 through a bottle of Chablis. DP has come home with Mojo mag with a Bruce interview in it and told me I'm in charge of the remote tonight. I reckon he's hoping he'll benefit from my poring over old videos 😂

My ex was the double of Bruce, same shaped face and nose. He's dead now (the ex) but I still get hot when I see pictures of Bruce 🔥

I'm sure I shared this video last year... enjoy!

Sorry, he's all mine. I wrote his lyrics all over my school text books. I've loved him for many years and I think he knows that if he wants to muck about with a 50 year old woman I am very much available. Also saw him in Hyde Park, forth time I've seen him live, and it was amazing.

I'd climb over DH to get to him any day. I think this is entirely reasonable.

claracluck1978 · 12/07/2023 21:16

Well I am thrilled the overwhelming consensus here is IANBU but a little worried now over then number of MNrs I have to beat down to his door

What about this pic...

DJSteves · 12/07/2023 21:25

He's playing in Boston when I'm there next month and some tickets floating around. I'm trying to talk DS into it.
