the freakin' price you pay

from Philly earlier this week



One of my favorite songs of all time... hasn't been played in concert since The River tour 28 years ago... I get chills watching it...

But just across the county line, a stranger passing through put up a sign
That counts the men fallen away to the price you pay,
and girl before the end of the day,
I'm gonna tear it down and throw it away

and if that wasn't enough... the night before he played this gem, also not played for 28 years...



I remember hearing this the first time I saw him back in October of 80... jeez, nearly 29 years THIS WEEK... he introduced it this way:

"Now this is a story of unrequited love..." The crowd sighed a long "ahhhhh." To which Bruce responded, "Aw, man, you don't even know what that means..."

I did, as all high schoolers do... and it was freaking awesome...
