Bruce Springsteen and E Street Band (w/ Eddie Vedder)
The Rising 2002 - 2003 Tour
The Center, Chicago - IL USA
25th September 2002



The recording sounds distant and includes a notable amount of echo and audio volume difference
between the softest sounds, talked parts and the loudest sounding parts.
Anyway the recording is complete and there are no missing or incomplete songs.
Hope you enjoy it! All the very best, everybody!


brucebase notes:
The encores bring Eddie Vedder to the stage for a "My Hometown" duet. "Jackson Cage" finally makes it to the tour
proper (and, along with "The Ties That Bind", makes for two River songs in the first five slots).
"She's The One" is in the set for the second night running, as is a solo piano slot: in Kansas City it was
"Incident On 57th Street"; in Chicago it's the tour debut of "For You", with Soozie and Patti providing backing
vocals. "Mary's Place" includes "Turn On Your Love Light" and "Baby, I've Been Missing You".
Bruce sings a couple lines of "My Kind Of Town" as he leaves stage.
