No longer. He will see us in a bit....

delbertgrady

A nice bonus.

Dr. Nick

Delighted for those there, not jealous at all 😁

Hopefully he'll do the same in Cork

This is it

Would love a stream link if anyone can send one on, thanks!

Dr. Nick

Wow what a way to start

Kilteragh

Super setlist so far. Much better than Belfast for me. Unfortunately I'm going on Thursday and he's unlikely to repeat.

Oh well. I'm sure he'll have more gems for us.

What a show so far

Bar lines not so good

Dr. Nick

during Darlington

Dr. Nick

Looks and sounds like that was a fantastic show with Bruce in top form.

Roll on Thursday

el Fenomeno

I will never go to a gig at Nowlan Park with seating tickets again.

Those seats should be used to torture prisoners of war. My back is broken.

adrian522

Great gig, really impressed. Safely back in the nore bar now 😁

PTH2009

What a gig

Who made the decision to close the Jack's behind the new stand ?

Nigel Fairservice

Great show. Lonesome Day was fantastic.

Tim131

Best Springsteen gig I have been to. Really night and day the difference between tonight and Belfast, in terms of energy, setlist and crowd. Will be hard to top!

BorneTobyWilde

It was loud and clear all over city and 3 miles from City. Who needs a ticket ha

Nice

Roll on Garth Brooks in the very near future

Great gig, way better than RDS last year despite a similar setlist.

For anyone wondering we walked in at 5.15 no queueing and got pit wristbands no problem.

TenPicnics

Fantastic night, just wonderful. Rainy Night in Soho to start. Easy to get into the pit. Superb sound on the pitch. Soooo much better than Croke Park. Thank you Bruce!!!!

BorneTobyWilde

The still humid night allowed the music to flow seamlessly from the stadium to miles away.

delbertgrady

Superb stuff. Adam Raised A Cain, If I Was the Priest, Racing in the Street...

Great atmosphere. Brilliant crowd in the pit. Everyone very enthusiastic. Plenty of space. A triumph all round.

Wooderson

Up there with the finest shows I've seen him play here.

Agreed. Unanimous praise across the board. Could easily become one of those gigs where, years from now if talking about Bruce shows, the question will be, "Did you see him in Kilkenny in 2024?"

McGrath5

It looked an amazing gig, envious of all you that went. Time will tell if I made the right decision to see him in the Netherlands next month instead of Kilkenny.

Super concert. Racing in the Street is such an anthem but I prefer his slower, more balladic songs anyway rather than his 'noisier' hits.

Think Kilkenny might have just become a place that Bruce fans internationally view fondly. Thats 3 fantastic performances he's given in a (relatively) tiny place vs other tour dates.

Beasty

A T-shirt worth holding onto for decades to come

Not only did we get an extra 15 minutes compared to the two earlier gigs, but we got a warm-up. He was clearly enjoying every minute of it. Except I guess when he dropped down into the pit to then realise clambering back over the fence at his age is no longer straightforward! Had to get someone in security to jump in and help lift him back, as I suspect the fans around him were happier with him staying there!!

And even the weather respected the Boss

Mo Ghile Mear

I’m still buzzin. He’s just the GOAT. How he still has the energy and the obvious pleasure in what he’s doing after 50 odd years I just don’t know. Fantastic night in KK 😊.
