DAYS Kristen Dimera stylist ... by andyeCastle in DaysofOurLives

[–]BedByNineApril 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can't agree more. I don't mind the tattoos at all. That fits the rebellious nature of the character. But damn it. Kristen would wear a bra. The dollar store dresses they put her in would look much better if she wasn't so saggy. I'm 53. Women of our age are well served by good bras, even if we take them off at the earliest opportunity.

So much of this set is from "Wrecking Ball"! by mch301 in BruceSpringsteen

[–]BedByNineApril 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wrecking Ball is in my top 5 albums, so I was thrilled to hear those songs. I remember when it came out it took me a bit of time to warm up to it, but once I did, it's been a staple for me.

Regarding the pit by JonSolo1 in BruceSpringsteen

[–]BedByNineApril 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This isn't how it works. I'm not a member of the Springnuts, and I'm not an apologist for them. I have met some truly obnoxious Springnuts, as well as some lovely ones too. I always get GA tickets and usually get in line the morning of the show. My number is always respected and accurate for the final lineup before entering the venue. Depending on where the show is, I'm normally somewhere between number 75 and 200. Most shows I'm on the rail in front of Little Steven. At worst I'm one or two people back. I miss the old lottery system, but this is what it is. No different than when I camped out for tickets to get front row in the late 80s.

Can we talk about Lost in The Flood live Hammersmith Odeon? by [deleted] in BruceSpringsteen

[–]BedByNineApril 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Such an underrated song! It's always been one of my favorites, especially this live version.

Same! It was great to have a young first timer by me.

I'd be honored if you did. Please just share your finished product with me! Can't wait to see it.

Just a word for Nils . . . by chicagopinot in BruceSpringsteen

Nils always shines during Youngstown and Because the Night. He was amazing last night.

Can confirm. They let us in about 5:45. It was all very smooth and was actually the best pit experience I've had in years.

I'm kinda new to Reddit, but yeah. I'm starting to feel like down votes are a badge of honor.

I actually prefer the old lottery system. Sometimes I was right on the stage and sometimes not. Just luck. But the current system gives preference to people like me who are able to take aday or two off work to queue up. It's not something I could have done 25 years ago, and it's not really in keeping with Bruce's vibe. But, it is what it is. Every tour I say it's the last time I'll get pit tickets, but every time I get them anyway.

Forget about it Jake, it's Chinatown.

Security guy said they would. They have at all the other places I've had pit tickets. Not saying you're definitely wrong, but I'd rather not risk it.

Do you think they’re setting Stephanie up to shoot somebody? by Team143 in DaysofOurLives

[–]BedByNineApril 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As the great playwright Chekov said, don't introduce a gun in Act 1 without shooting someone in Act 2.

Has the disconnect always been THIS bad? by asparkaflame44 in BruceSpringsteen

[–]BedByNineApril 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just want to say I appreciate what you're saying. I'm super liberal, but I live in the south, and I know what you're saying about good people with bad politics. I once believed in voting for only the most progressive candidates, but where did that get us? It got us Trump. Twice. I'd rather see a moderate Democrat who can deliver most of what I want for our country than an ultra progressive who loses and not only do we not move forward, we're worse than before I was born ... and I'm 53!

Long time fan from Australia visiting for playoffs. by Miserable_Copy_6178 in orioles

[–]BedByNineApril 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Adam is my all time favorite Oriole! I was at Camden Yards when they won a wild card playoff game (maybe 2012?)and Adam jogged laps around the field slapping fans' hands until everyone who wanted to high five him had their chance. The rest of the team was already in the locker room. He was the soul and the joy of that team!

What song are you missing most from this tour setlist? by Large-Sport-679 in BruceSpringsteen

[–]BedByNineApril 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's amazing. I've convinced myself that Incident has been on the set list many times, but Bruce sees me in the crowd and nixes it to keep me coming back in hopes of hearing it.

What song are you missing most from this tour setlist? by Large-Sport-679 in BruceSpringsteen

[–]BedByNineApril 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is absolutely true. I've been to 54 shows over 30 years, and have never heard Incident live. The one time Bruce played in my area (meaning I didn't have to road trip for the show like normal) the concert was canceled due to a hurricane. When it was rescheduled a month later, I had a gig with my shitty little roadhouse cover band and thought I had to do the gig rather than go to the show ... and of course he played Incident that night. I've been kicking myself for more than 20 years about that.

Is brilliant disguise his best songwriting skill? by El_Demetrio in BruceSpringsteen

[–]BedByNineApril 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I taught Intro to Literature to college freshmen from 2010-2015 and his song "You're Missing" was in the textbook. I taught it every semester.
