    Vastly different to U2, where -even if they perform 8 to 10 rare or new songs a night- , they put a lot of the focus on a great visual show regardless. I've seen dozens of casual fans (or not even fans) leaving a U2 show speechless, but I doubt that happens at Springsteen shows.
    It’s a back catalogue that utterly overwhelms.
  2. A surprise appearance at Glastonbury with McCartney. Glory Days.

    Its entirely possible to be a great live act with or without visuals.

    I know what you mean but I was a casual fan who, instead of walking out speechless, I was so wowed that I couldn't stop talking about how impressive Springsteen really is - the hype is well justified. All of the songs I didn't know me had asking why hadn't I heard them before or dug deeper into his catalogue.
