12/02/99 -- THRILL HILL EAST, RUMSON, NJ

GIVE MY LOVE TO ROSE

Springsteen solo performance of a Johnny Cash song that was simultaneously audio-video recorded. Springsteen produced the audio and Toby Scott recorded it – but the identity of film director is a mystery. First broadcast commercially on April 18, 1999 as part of the Johnny Cash Tribute special on the USA’s TNT network. The audio was officially released in Sept 2002 on the Cash “Kindred Spirits” tribute LP. The video has yet to be officially issued, although it circulates via copies of the original TV broadcast.

00/03/99 -- CONVENTION HALL, ASBURY PARK, NJ

LAND OF HOPE AND DREAMS / FURTHER ON UP THE ROAD / WAITING ON A SUNNY DAY / RESTLESS NIGHTS / THE PRICE YOU PAY / + many others

Springsteen & The E Street Band rehearsals for the upcoming REUNION-TRACKS Tour. Max Weinberg stated in a late Feb 1999 interview that rehearsals had not yet started, so it appears that all rehearsals took place during the month of March. However security was tight so exact dates and setlists are unclear. In reviewing original media/fan reports of these rehearsals there are 5 songs that warrant special mention. Three then-new and previously undocumented Springsteen compositions were rehearsed – “Land Of Hope And Dreams” (it premiered live early in the Tour), “Further On Up The Road” (it premiered live near the end of the tour) and “Waiting On A Sunny Day” (sound-checked mid tour but not played in concert). “American Skin (41 Shots)” was not rehearsed in March, as Bruce didn’t write the song until mid-Tour. “Restless Nights” is the only song from the TRACKS box that is known to have been rehearsed that was not later played at least once on the Reunion Tour – to date it still hasn’t been performed in concert). “The Price You Pay” (from the River LP) was the notable regular LP catalog song that was rehearsed but then not subsequently performed on the 1999-2000 tour.

Audience tape. By June 24, the "reunion" tour of Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band was winding up the European leg of the tour and they were playing hot. One of the highlights from the European tour was the many “Tracks” songs that were played on a regular basis but didn't get many airings once the tour returned to North America, especially "I Wanna Be With You" and "Loose Ends," both of which were played on June 24 to a very enthusiastic crowd. Many fan favorite songs from the 70s and 80s returned to the set on the 1999-2000 tour, and several of those are represented here, including "Jungleland," "Two Hearts," "Born to Run," and "Thunder Road." But the high point for many long-time fans were the last two songs of the night, "If I Should Fall Behind," which featured Bruce, Steven, Patti, Nils, and Clarence sharing vocals, and "Land of Hope and Dreams," a mid-tempo rocker with almost spiritual lyrics. “Factory” is performed as a country-duet with Patti. Other highlights from the tour included the segment from "Youngstown," done in a full-band arrangement, through "Tenth Avenue Freeze Out," which included the band member introductions. And during the band introductions on June 24, Garry played "Fire," which Bruce and the band picked up for a couple of verses. After completing the band intros and before getting back into "Tenth Avenue," Bruce finished the song. Steve played Satisfaction during “Tenth Avenue Freeze Out”. “I Hear A Train” is featured during “Light Of Day”.  Max messes up the beat during “Stand On It”. Available on CD "Stockholm Fire" (Piggham) and on CD "Olympic Stadium Second Night" (CC). Thanks to Per for additional details.

02/07/99 -- DISNEY SOUNDSTAGE STUDIOS, NEW YORK, NY

In a Manhattan studio Springsteen makes his first-ever appearance in a feature film (i.e., excluding documentaries and music films/videos), playing himself during a 2-minute dream sequence for the movie “High Fidelity”. It was the final scene shot for the film. John Cusack, the movie’s co-producer, screenwriter and lead actor, had first contacted Springsteen in 1998 asking him to participate - surprisingly Bruce said “yes” (Bob Dylan, Cusack’s first choice for this role, had declined). In the film Bruce performs a blues riff on guitar while talking to the film’s dreaming lead character (Cusack), who ends the conversation with Bruce by saying “Good luck, goodbye” (a spoof of the final line in Springsteen’s song “Bobby Jean”). The film was released on March 31, 2000.

24/09/99 -- SPECTRUM, PHILADELPHIA, PA

S/C:- NO SURRENDER (multiple takes)/ THE FEVER / GROWIN' UP

Tour premiers of “Growin’ Up”, “Does This Bus Stop” and “The Fever” – last played 31.1 1998.  “No Surrender” is the full band version. “Badlands” has the ending played twice. “Tenth avenue” includes two lines of “Happy Birthday” during “It’s Alright” and “Light Of Day” includes “You Can’t Sit Down” in the middle.

Notes: Known as "The Birthday Show" as it took place one day after Bruce's 50th birthday, this show was a high point for many, many fans. While the other five shows in Philadelphia on this stand took place at the First Union Center, this show moved 150 yards to the old Spectrum building, a venue steeped in Springsteen history (first arena show on October 25, 1976; great shows in 1978, 1981, and 1984). In another twist, this show was supposed to have taken place on September 16, but had to be post-poned due to heavy rains caused by a hurricane. So the last two shows of the stand occurred immediately after Bruce Springsteen's 50th birthday, and those two shows turned out to be among the best shows of the 1999-2000 tour. Because of the atmosphere and venue, however, this night gets the nod over the September 25 show. Bruce took the stage with a boom box and played a tape of a song, called "Nineteen Hundred and Ninety-Nine" that was evidently sung by a female fan who had mailed the tape to Bruce's mother. The band then launched into the tour premiere of "Growin' Up," followed by "No Surrender." Other tour debuts on this ight included "Bus Stop," "Blinded by the Light," and "The Fever." This was also the first scheduled performance of "The Fever" since the Darkness tour; while it was played at the January 31, 1998, Pat King Benefit concert, that was totally spontaneous, but it was rehearsed and on the set list for this show. This show hasn't been released by a major bootleg label, but a CDR of this show is widely available, and while it's not an amazing recording, the energy and vibe come through nonetheless.

Thanks to Johanna for the soundcheck info and Per for additional notes.

Audience tape. Soundcheck comments, The Pink Cadillac intro was the instrumental, mostly Nils on guitar and Max on drums, that was played during the '85 stadium tour. Bruce appeared for "Prove It . . . " and sang the hell out of it. The intro to "My Love Will Not Let You Down" was worked on a lot, a real soulful treatment that really added to the show. Ghost of Tom Joad was the full band and excellent. Born In The USA was the standard acoustic version.
In the main show, a great snippet of "California Sun" was thrown in during "Light of Day", with a very funny reference to plastic surgery. From a fan present, "I was behind the stage and saw Danny's set list and they dropped out Brilliant Disguise after Workin' and before TGOTJ. It was indented on the list so maybe it was there in case they had enough time." Thanks to Johanna and Erno for the soundcheck info.

04/12/99 -- THE DIASCO RESIDENCE, COLT'S NECK, NJ

RED HEADED WOMAN / LUCILLE / TREAT HER RIGHT / PRETTY WOMAN / IT'S ALL OVER NOW / HAVIN' A PARTY

No circulating audio. In June 1999, at a Doug Flutie Autism Foundation fundraising gala held at Jon Bon Jovi’s estate in Middletown, guests Anthony and Pam Diasco paid $60,000 during the evening’s dinner auction for right to host a very private Bon Jovi band concert at their home. The performance took place on Dec 4th at the Diasco’s estate in Colt’s Neck. Although Springsteen’s services were not part of June auction, the Diasco’s got a bonus - Bruce (as well as Patti and Southside Johnny) attended the Dec 4th party and Bruce (backed by Bon Jovi) performed the above-noted songs.

20/12/99 -- MacLOONE'S RUM RUNNER, SEA BRIGHT, NJ

SHE LOVES YOU / A HARD DAY'S NIGHT / PLEASE PLEASE ME / GREEN RIVER / BORN ON THE BAYOU / SANTA CLAUS IS COMING TO TOWN

Bruce did his annual Xmas party at MacLoone's Rum Runner in Sea Bright, NJ. Though the date is not certain it seems the party took place on Dec 20th, and Bruce joined Bobby Bandiera's band for well over an hour, performing Beatles & Creedence songs among other classics.
