Bruce Springsteen 2016-05-19 Rock In Rio, Lisbon

Thu, May 19, 2016 in Lisbon, Portugal @ Rock In Rio (Parque da Bela Vista)

I went to Rock In Rio to see Bruce Springsteen (for the 3rd time) live. This time was "The River Tour 2016". Another big and sunny day of waiting. But it worth every minute of it.

It was the third time the BOSS was here in Portugal to do a live show. I was on the first show he did here in Lisbon on May 1st, 1993 at Estádio José de Alvalade (23 years before). This 1993 show was really awesome. I remember to see Bruce Springsteen playing for 3 hours. And the second show was 4 years ago also in Rock In Rio on June 3rd 2012.

I arrived at Rock In Rio at 5 am. Still night. Cold night. I sat up a little on the road where we will be in line to enter later, waiting that somebody else came. Other fans of Bruce Sprignsteen began arriving a little after 8 am.

Just before 4 pm me and other fans started to run up the long road, hard race until the main entrance. I managed to go to an empty door of close to 15 or 16 doors available to stop.

A few minutes later we get in. A lot of people ahead of us taking photos and trying to give us "things". Well, so I run to the front and then went behind other fans to the left side but I notice the right side was almost empty. So I turned around, just couldn't run anymore. Walk a little behind the bars and there I ended up on the right side that was where I wanted to go. I saw a friend of mine on front row with a little space on his right side and went there.

Finally I could rest on a sunny and hot day.

Before Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band in Rock In Rio, Lisbon we saw a musical "Rock In Rio - The Musical", we also saw the bands Stereophonics and Xutos e Pontapés.

The first act was by Rock In Rio - The Musical. 60 minutes.
A musical Rock In Rio create to celebrate the 30 years of Rock In Rio.

The next band on stage was Stereophonics. They played for 71 minutes.
This was the first time I saw them live. They were nice. To be honest I knew their name but never hear them before and what I heard before I did not enjoy. But to be honest they were cool. I like 2 songs they played, I think they were: "White Lies" and "Mr and Mrs Smith".

I will write here the setlist:

01. C'est La Vie
02. I Wanna Get Lost With You
03. Local Boy in the Photograph
04. Vegas Two Times
05. Sunny
06. Maybe Tomorrow

12. Graffiti on the Train

The third act, band was Xutos e Pontapés. They played for 72 minutes.
They played at night. I already have seen them other times in Rock In Rio. More of the same songs.

I will write here the setlist:

01. Enquanto a Noite Cai
02. Salve-se Quem Puder
03. De Madrugada (Tu & Eu)

13. Tu Também (Há 10000 Anos Atrás)
14. Ai Se Ele Cai
15. A Minha Maneira
16. Maria
17. Casinha


Finally was time for Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band. He started the show at 23h53 and played for 159 minutes.

Bruce and band perform a 27-song set at Rock in Rio Festival, only the third time Springsteen has played in Portugal.

I will write here the setlist:

Pink - Just Like Fire (From the Original Motion Picture "Alice Through The Looking Glass")

This is the awesome new video by P!nk. Amazing as always. Pink magic is back.

"Just like magic, I'll be flying free
I'mma disappear when they come for me"

Well, it's MAGIC.

P!nk - Just Like Fire (From the Original Motion Picture "Alice Through The Looking Glass")



Hope you will love this awesome lyric.

Pink - Just Like Fire

I know that I'm running out of time
I want it all, mmm, mmm
And I'm wishing they'd stop tryna turn me off
I want it all, mmm, mmm
And I'm walking on a wire, trying to go higher
Feels like I'm surrounded by clowns and liars
Even when I give it all away
I want it all, mmm, mmm

We came here to run it, run it, run it
We came here to run it, run it, run it

Just like fire, burning out the way
If I can light the world up for just one day
Watch this madness, colorful charade
No one can be just like me any way
Just like magic, I'll be flying free
I'mma disappear when they come for me
I kick that ceiling, what you gonna say?
No one can be just like me any way
Just like fire, uh

And people like to laugh at you cause they are all the same, mmm, mmm
See I would rather we just go our different way than play the game mm, mm
And no matter the weather, we can do it better
You and me together, forever and ever
We don't have to worry bout' a thing, bout' a thing

We came here to run it, run it, run it
We came here to run it, run it, run it

Just like fire, burning out the way
If I can light the world up for just one day
Watch this madness, colorful charade
No one can be just like me any way
Just like magic, I'll be flying free
I'mma disappear when they come for me
I kick that ceiling, what you gonna say?
No one can be just like me any way

Just like fire, fire, fire
Run it, run it, run it
We came here to run it, run it, run it

So look I came here to run it
Just cause nobody's done it
Y'all don't think I can run it
But look, I've been here, I've done it
Impossible? Please
Watch, I do it with ease
You just gotta believe
Come on, come on with me

Oh, what you gonna do?
(What, what?)
Oh, what you gonna do?
(What, what?)
Oh, what you gonna do?
(What, what?)
Oh, what you gonna do?

Just like fire, burning out the way
If I can light the world up for just one day
Watch this madness, colorful charade
No one can be just like me any way
Just like fire, burning out the way
If I can light the world up for just one day
Watch this madness, colorful charade
No one can be just like me any way
Just like magic, I'll be flying free
I'mma disappear when they come for me
I kick that ceiling, what you gonna say?
No one can be just like me any way
Just like fire, fire

Running, running, running
Just like fire
Run it, run it, run it
