Springsteen Magic Tour 10/15/07 Toronto: “For You” Premieres; “Candy’s Room” and “Reason To Believe” Return

Posted on October 16th, 2007 by Josh Hathaway

Bruce & The E-Street Band played their second show north of the border last night, stopping in Toronto. The first Candadian show in Ottawa featured three tour premieres and a guest spot. Last night’s gig had only one tour premiere (”For You”) and no cameos. The set list is still a pretty good.

“Reason to Believe” and “Candy’s Room” have both been played already on the tour, but both can be considered rarities. Also of note to me is the way Bruce seems to be combating the catty “bathroom break” references to his duet with wife. A number of fans have claimed they head for the shitter when he and Patti do “Town Called Heartbreak” from her new record. Bruce’s answer? Come right back with “Incident on 57th Street.” I hope you can make fast because if you can’t, there’s a gem you’ll be hearing through the plumbing. That’s genius!
