I have now seen 6 shows since the beginning of the tour and Jake has gone from being somewhat tentative to being confident and sounding wonderful. It has been nice to see the change. He is really starting to shine. You can tell that the band and the audience is encouraging him and he really has been responding.
And just my own opinion - the E Street Band with the horn section is one of the best sounding bands that I have heard - they are a joy to listen to. The rock band still forms the core (and sometimes the horns and the other singers are silent) and the core band is still tight as hell. Bruce appears to be at the top of his game both physically and vocally. He sounds and looks great and seems to have inexhaustible energy. Last night's show was over 3 hours - and he is 62. Go Bruce
