Monday, Sept. 1, 2003 - 5:00 p.m.

I saw him play that on...

With a light schedule at work today (and a tediously slow one; I'm still here waiting to see the one thing I need to look over before I can go), I did a couple of nerdy things:

I drafted my fantasy football team.

I figured out how many different songs I've seen Bruce Springsteen perform live, and I counted them up.

Saturday night's show was spectacular, with some good surprises (such as Emmylou Harris coming onstage to sing "Across The Border" with Bruce). I'll get into a full recap of the weekend later, perhaps, but for now, here's the list of the songs I've seen live. And according to Backstreets.com, Saturday night's appearance of "Pretty Flamingo" was the just the second live performance of that Manfred Mann cover (ironic, considering Manfred Mann ruined Bruce's "Blinded By The Light") by Springsteen since 1978.

The list, with dates:

1. Across the Border (with Emmylou Harris)/ 8/30/03
