i get pissy that i have NEVER seen him with BRUCE!!!!!!!![/quote]

Thomas or Springsteen?

Otis Westinghouse · Post by **Otis Westinghouse** » Mon Sep 24, 2007 3:58 am

I assumed you meant Thomas, but a) that would be impossible to believe given the list above and b) Bruce was there at the Martin Belmont gigs, so The Boss it is.

Seen here means in person? Blimey, it's quite incredible. I have only one up on you:

Attractions minus Steve Nieve

Not sure if this has more kudos than the Martin Belmont gigs that followed! I can't recall if you were at the Hope and Anchor gig that was on BBC radio, or a different one.

DeathWearsABigHat · Post by **DeathWearsABigHat** » Mon Sep 24, 2007 5:58 am

Wow, that's quite a list.

I haven't seen all those combinations you have by any means but I've seen a couple of others.

BOB DYLAN with his band, EC, Carole King & Chrissie Hynde (Brixton Academy, 1995, when EC was support)

EC with Chris Difford, Glenn Tilbrook, Nick Lowe & Pete Thomas.

colrow26 · Post by **colrow26** » Mon Sep 24, 2007 7:21 am

Wow that is some list!!
Seen EC on all his visits to Manchester over last 28 years so that covers solo, Attractions, Confederates,Imposters and Steve Nieve (had ticket for show at the Hacienda in 83 that Elvis blew out at last minute!!)
I can offe two more variations - i was at the Royal Albert Hall in 82 for the show Elvis and the Attractions did with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.
Last November i was lucky to get an invite to the recording of Jools Holland's "Later" programme. The highlight being i could stand two feet away from Elvis singing accompanied by Allen Toussaint on piano. It was amazing!

jmm · Post by **jmm** » Mon Sep 24, 2007 4:08 pm

So Bronxapostle did you miss a few in the NYC area recently like w/ Rosanne Cash and AT & EC at Joe's Pub or just forget them? They were good ones

I can also add Metrople Orchestra, various other Orchestral dates that aren't worth singling out, and EC with AT and his band in the EU this summer. Minor quibble the AC show had all of Death Cab for Cutie

And of course the elusive Bruce guest show in Asbury Park

bronxapostle · Post by **bronxapostle** » Mon Sep 24, 2007 4:29 pm

yeah, i could NOT work my way into that rosanne cash show. glad you were there. is there a boot circulating? i went to the BRUCE Christmas show the night before....ugh! what can you do? i think DEATHCAB were all just on stage for the encore, no? i also need that cd from the t.v. broadcast. my tape came very crappy that night. loads here that i did record. wanna trade? cheers, ba

jmm · Post by **jmm** » Mon Sep 24, 2007 5:57 pm

I've not heard of a boot of the Rosanne show - it'd be a fun one to find. They had it on closed curcuit to the lounge for the overflow crowd so you'd think it exists someplace

Death Cab did a few songs at the start of the AC show including Accidents with EC. For the encore, you're right it was just Ben and the guitar player. There was a link posted elsewhere here to an EU telecast of the same show (the edited version not the full setlist)

bronxapostle · Post by **bronxapostle** » Mon Sep 24, 2007 7:28 pm

okay, gotta add another. forgot the ACCIDENTS with whole band...thanks. keep an eye for the closed circuit feed. you are right, it MUST be around. thanks jmm

...and let's not forget that Phil Lynott played bass too when Bruce cut his hand back in 1978

or The Attractions with Marc Ribot and James Burton

or special guests with the Imposters such as Peter Buck and Roger McGuinn

Oh I just don't know where this will end

sulky lad · Post by **sulky lad** » Thu Sep 27, 2007 6:05 pm

And what about the Live Stiffs, like Neat Neat Neat with Davey Payne on Sax and the extra drummer seen playing Detectives in the Live Stiffs film ? Oh and the start of the 2nd US tour in May 1978 when Bruce was still cut and the bassist from Clover played for afew gigs (John Ciambotti ?)

I was not aware of the McCabes appearance, but both the "Brave Brothers" apearance and the Faboulous thunderbirds took place in Stockholm during the 1986 Spinning wheel tour. Brown showed up during the third night as surprise. Later the same evening at Karlssons the Fabolous Thunderbirds were doing a gig and EC appeared during the encore helping them out with "Help me".
I have seen tapes of the t-bird show, but unfortunately nothing from the spinning wheel Stockholm shows.
