Springsteen Magic Tour Set List 07/19/08 Barcelona: Return To The Scene of The Crime

Posted on July 19th, 2008 by Josh Hathaway

I know I spoke in calm, measured tones about some of the stinkers that have been played in Eruope on this tour when I wrote about Springsteen’s gig in Madrid. I was ready to make peace with it. Acceptance, I think, was the word I used. How soon we fuckin’ forget.

We have evidence Barcelona was forced to endure “Mary’s Place” in the form of the Live in Barcelona DVD. Why, then, would you play it tonight? I just don’t fuckin’ get it. “Brilliant Disguise” and “Tunnel of Love” were once again played tonight, along with “The River” and “Janey, Don’t You Lose Heart.” “Backstreets” and “Atlantic City” also made the cut.
