For the Springsteen and Rage Against the Machine fans.

Some great guitar at the end by Tom Morello. I was at this show. At the end of Morello's solo the place was going nuts!

I never could stand RAM. The band, not Cbbber. Loved Audioslave, however, and Morello did some nice work there. Caught him solo on one of the late night talk shows...ugh. Play guitar, Tom, but shut up...you can't sing.

You could argue for years about who is the best guitar player ever, but I certainly think Morello is one of the more innovative in the last 15-20 years.

I never really knew who Morello was until this show. I have since listened to some of his stuff as the nightwatchmen and some old Audioslave. He has a very unique guitar playing style.

I sorta like Rage Against the Machine, but I have no clue as to what people see in Springsteen.

^Tru dat. Fun to watch live, too. Too bad Audioslave busted up.

Wait..."old" Audioslave? What, like from way back in 2001?

Springsteen seems to be one of those "love him or hate him" types. I happen to be a big fan of his songwriting and especially his live performances.

Oops. #5 for #3.

#4 I like old Springsteen just fine. Wrote some great tunes, good music to go with it. Pretty much every album since Born in the USA was disappointing, that one included. I have the latest one, haven't had time to listen to it yet.

They do put on a good show.

Yea I guess old Audioslave doesn't fit since I think they only have 3 or 4 albums.

Sort of agree on the older vs newer Springsteen. The last 3 albims do not hold up against his earlier stuff but I do think Tunnel of Love and the Seeger sessions are excellent albums, both of them coming after Born in the USA.
