Thursday night’s show in Omaha, Nebraska would unexpectedly open with a 1-2-3 from the actual Nebraska album: “Reason to Believe” (in its crunchy, ZZ Top-esque incarnation from the Magic tour), “Johnny 99″ (in its rollicking, zydeco-like incarnation), and the classic E Street Band version of “Atlantic City.” By the time the night was over, there…

The place was packed not only to the rafters, but to the rooftops: several times, Springsteen hollered to those fans gathered atop buildings…
Bruce Springsteen clearly puts on a show to be reckoned with every night whether it’s a bar or a stadium, an arena or a street corner in Europe.
