After Oslo I’ve been home for about a week to recuperate and to celebrate my birthday. I also had time to see Coldplay in Ullevi (great show!). My annoying cough is gone and I’m ready to embark the third leg of our #SpringsteenTour2023. Since the last dates of the European leg of the tour will... Continue Reading →
Oslo 02.07.2023 #SpringsteenTour2023
For the second concert in Oslo I had absolutely no expectations. The ones of you who have read my last post, know that I was a bit disappointed with the first show- not because of the show itself, but how the audience acted. Sadly Oliver had to travel home, but my good friend Ann-Sofie came... Continue Reading →
Oslo 30.06.2023 #SpringsteenTour2023
Voldsløkka Stadion in Oslo is actually no stadium, but a large mowed grass field divided into two parts; Front of stage and normal GA with a stage on one side. As we arrived to the field it was filling up quickly. Most of the people were sat down eating pizza and drinking beer. All of... Continue Reading →
Gothenburg 28.06.2023 #SpringsteenTour2023
Let’s start on the evening before the third show. A couple of us were hanging out in the Brewers Beer Bar on the back of the “Bruce hotel” in Gothenburg in hopes of meeting some members of the band, but also yap and exchange tour stories over a beer and a pizza. It turned out... Continue Reading →
Gothenburg 26.06.2023 #SpringsteenTour2023
To pick up where I left off in my last entry: We left the first concert a bit early to get a good number for the second show. That meant that we had to participate in the three roll calls during Monday (10am, 2pm and 7pm). The roll calls were in the park next to... Continue Reading →
Gothenburg 24.06.2023 #SpringsteenTour2023
Due to the cancelled flight from Düsseldorf on Thursday, I had to change my plans regarding getting a low number and doing the roll calls. Oliver and I arrived to Landvetter Airport together (for the first time ever) on Friday evening on the night before the show. As I was going to have a guest... Continue Reading →
Düsseldorf 21.06.2023 #SpringsteenTour2023
After a 3,5 weeks Springsteen hiatus (I had to work) I was more than ready re-embark the Springsteen tour. Let’s call it the “second leg” of the European tour. From now on we’ll see practically all remaining European shows (except for the two shows in London). I can’t lie, standing on the sideline, following the... Continue Reading →

Paris 13.05.2023 #SpringsteenTour2023
I landed on Friday night at 23:20 in the airport Charles De Gaulle and realised there were no more trains for the day, so I decided to take a taxi to the hotel. Unfortunately the taxi driver didn’t know any English and my knowledge of French is limited to just a few words: “oui, no,... Continue Reading →
Dublin 07.05.2023 #SpringsteenTour2023
Revived and invigorated from Saturday night's show with The Seeger Sessions Revival we jumped on the Dart train to get a number before the first roll call early on Sunday morning. When we got to the assembly spot we saw that the line was longer than on Friday. We got number 881 and 882 and... Continue Reading →
