Who's going? How are the front two rows? The back of the mezzanine (the only seats I can afford)? Does it feel like a concert with more chatting than usual (though Springsteen was known for epic storytelling) or does it play more like a theatrical evening, a one-person show? Per Springsteen, the set list is locked in. According to Rolling Stone, this is the list of songs he played at the first preview.

1. "Growin' Up"
2. "My Hometown"
3. "My Father's House"
4. "The Wish"

Thx! That post was about tickets going on sale and was seven pages long. When I checked last night, no one had posted about the actual show so I thought maybe it needed a new posting devoted to previews,. That's what I get for presumptuously creating a post!

I agree with you, that other post is 7 pages long..I want to hear how previews are going - deserves a dedicated post IMO.
