Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band - Live in New York City (2000)
A two disc amalgam of the final performances of 2001's Madison Square Gardens performances by one of the greatest bands in the world of some of the greatest music in the world. The atmosphere positively floods out of the screen to envelop you and the hairs on your neck will be standing on end before the first note has been struck. After watching this you'll believe that The Boss is incapable of putting a foot wrong. By the end, he's only just short of defying gravity.

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
The E Street Band fizzled out after the Human Rights Now tour in 1989. After working solo and with other performers, Bruce released an anthology of unreleased/outtakes Tracks album in 1998 and reunited with the band for a world tour.The final two shows formed part of this concert film. In a way this was a celebration of the bands music from the early days to the Born in the USA era and a few songs from Tracks and some new material including (American Skin) 41 shots which was a controversial song choice dealing with race, brutality and the US police.The concert is the band together again, enjoying themselves and at its pomp. The band would come together and make a new album, but this concert marks the celebration of an era of a band before they got back to start another phase of their story with The Rising.

As Springsteen himself acknowledges during the show this is not just music. This is religion.
Bruce Springsteen, the maestro of rock. Estreet Band, the backbone of the bosses rock. This dvd feautres the last two concerts on their reunion tour, held at Madison Square Garden.This is a touching concert with Bruce & the Band. When they burst into laughter & tears you can't help the enormous smile inserted in your face.The bells are sometimes replaced with screaming guitars with make some songs a little bit more stiff but that's only a minor quibble. Most of the versions here are great. The River, Born to Run & Tenth Avenue Freeze Out are truly amazing.If you want your moneys worth you have to got this dvd, one of the best musical-dvds out there. Long live the boss!
Intense. Emotional. Joyous. I've seen the Boss numerous times and have tried to illustrate the experience for those who have not seen him. Very difficult to do. This video does exactly what I've tried to accomplish. Bruce Springsteen is simply the greatest frontman to ever set foot on stage. He has complete mastery of his band and the audience. Bruce has a unique bond with his fans and it comes across to the viewer as if you were actually there. Many bands depend on gimmickry and light shows to accentuate their show. Bruce and the E Street Band will have non of that. It's all about the music, the band, and the fans.
