As someone who is enlisting in the Maine National Guard next week, I agree wholeheartedly. Bring ‘em home! Not only from Iraq and Afganistan, but from Germany, Japan, and South Korea. No more policing the world. Our troops should be in America not Germany.
There was no San Francisco show on this tour, so I believe this performance is at the Sleep Train Pavilion (suburban Concord, California). Though we can forgive the confusion…even Bruce started the show with “Where the f— are we?”
Sorry, by “this tour” I was referring to the 2006 Seeger Sessions tour. I checked the setlists again, and there was definitely no San Francisco show in 2006.
CPSJSMSUUMUGA: I hope for the day when the pranksters of B of A and Citibank go belly up. Do you know that the FDIC is only required to have 1.15% of the total monies deposited in a bank. In other words, if the banks collapsed, 98.85% of the people would be shit out of luck. The system is broken and the bankers can’t be counted on to fix it.
Since Bruce went back to the roots, I like him and his music much more.The best was “The Seeger Sessions”, for me in the last years.Sorry for my poor English,I come from Southwest Germany

Your forgiveness is always welcome, but this video was shot in 2006 with the (Seeger) Sessions Band, not in 2009 with the E Street Band.

No, it’s a Pete Seeger song (originally written for the Vietnam War).
