FLOOD AID 02.12.2004 SPRINGSTEEN DVD

Bootleg DVD di Springsteen a dir poco imperdibile.

Description: After Hurricane Ivan had swept through Western Pennsylvania in September 2004, local rocker Joe Grushecky decided to stage a benefit show for the victims of the devastation. “Flood Aid 2004” took place 3 months later in the opulent surroundings of Heinz Hall, home of the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra. There were a total of eight acts on the bill, headlined by Bruce and Grushecky with his House Rockers.

Bruce’s first performance of the night came during the set of fellow Jersey musicians Exit 105. He reprised his cover of Dylan’s “All Along the Watchtower” from the VFC tour. No Neil Young this time, but it was still a terrific performance. Bruce strolled onto the stage later in the evening to perform a 3 song solo set consisting of “If I Should Fall Behind”, “Land of Hope and Dreams” (in the same acoustic arrangement as its debut at the Clearwater Festival in 2001) and “For You” (dedicated to “all the old fans”). Bruce then welcomed Grushecky and his band on stage to join him for a set that drew on both their back catalogues, together with two songs that they had penned together. Highlights from a Bruce perspective were the Chuck Berry-esque “From Small Things”, a rockabilly “Johnny 99” and a stripped down “Factory”. The only nod to the Yuletide season came at the end of the show when all the evening’s performers took the stage for “Santa Clause is Coming to Town”.


A unique night like this one deserved a special treatment on DVD and ScrewDevil comes through with a magnificent presentation. This remarkable camcorder footage from “NYC Shows” is shot from head-on in front of the stage. The image is crystal clear, very steady and offers some great close-ups. A second camera source crops up towards the end of the solo set with a slightly softer focus and some minor noise, but when it reappears later it is as sharp as the primary source. The colours are rich, natural and well-balanced. Although both cameras are at a virtually identical angle, they compliment each other well by allowing switches between tight-in and wide angle views. The shots are unobstructed throughout and it is mind-boggling to imagine how this was achieved in such a small venue without being challenged.

The audio is dubbed from an excellent audience recording that benefits from the great acoustics of the theatre setting. The sound is full and clear, although the lead vocals appear slightly back in the mix at times. Audio/video synchronisation is spot on.

The high production values we have come to expect from ScrewDevils are present and correct, even though this title was in circulation only a couple of weeks after the show. There is a nice into-sequence with a photomontage showing the flooding, together which text describing the background to the benefit. Menu deigns are simple, but effective and give access to the Exit 105 spot as a Bonus on Disc 2.

“Flood Aid 2004” raised the bar on what could be achieved with a fan-made DVD. The image clarity and camera-work are as close to pro-shot quality as you could hope to get from camcorders. This one needs to be included in any “best Bruce DVD ever” discussion.

From Backstreets:”This seaside bar was the smallest venue in recent memory for Springsteen’s two holiday jams on a cold winters’ night. While music was piped outside for those who hadn’t scored tickets (no more than 500 for each performance), crowds out in the street dwindled as the temperature (and snow!) dropped. Inside, there was plenty of heat. Backed by Bobby Bandiera and his band, complete with Jukes horns (who all pulled this off with very little rehearsal), Springsteen turned in two sets heavy with his own songs, and lighter on the special guest “revue” element of years past. Holiday chestnuts were sprinkled here and there — “Run, Run Rudolph” at the beginning, and the requisite “Santa Claus” at the end — but the setlists reflected the roadhouse vibe: rarities like “From Small Things,” “Stand on It,” “Rendezvous,” and of course “Seaside Bar Song”; a blessedly up-to-speed album version of “Further On (Up the Road)”; and deck my halls, the return of the long-lost “All That Heaven Will Allow.” Springsteen even came out into the crowd on “Tenth Avenue Freeze-out.” He started both shows alone with a three-song acoustic set, breaking out “Bus Stop,” “Wild Billy,” “For You,” “Working on the Highway,” and “This Hard Land” over the two concerts. As for additional “friends,” Southside Johnny guested in the afternoon performance– not for “Talk to Me,” a song Bruce wrote for the South and sang himself here, but later in the set for “The Fever.” No Southside in the late show, but Bruce reprised “The Fever” anyway as an audible, and a guest spot from Patti Scialfa gave the crowd a taste of the RCDS shows, backed by Bobby & Co. on “Tell Him” and an “It Takes Two” duet with Bruce. Also in the late show, Hero of Holiday Shows Past, Max Weinberg took over the drums from “Seaside Bar Song” through the end. Each performance closed with a favorite from the Vote for Change tour (debuted by Bruce at last year’s holiday shows), “(What’s So Funny ‘Bout) Peace, Love and Understanding.” Beneficiaries of these concerts (besides the Asbury Park merchants, who had more than 35,000 contest entries filled out in their stores): Interfaith Neigbors, Hope Academy Charter School, Salvation Army, Family & Children’s Services, Boys & Girls Club of Monmouth County, Prevention First, Epiphany House, Asbury Park Citizens on Patrol, The Center, Hispanic Affairs & Resource Center, and Save Tillie Inc.”

Ricordo che a fine mese tutti gli iscritti alla ricezione dei post per email parteciperanno all’ estrazione di un bootleg di Springsteen a loro scelta.
