In Anaheim with the Ghost of Tom Joad
April 8th, 2008 by Pete - - Posted in The Boss |
Before I jump on a plane and head back to Arizona, let me share the highlight of last night’s Boss show at the Honda Center in Anaheim. Tom Morello (Rage Against the Machine) joined Bruce and the band for “The Ghost of Tom Joad”, and - oh - basically brought the house down. My GAWD - Morello did an amazing job of trading verses with Bruce, and harmonizing on the chorus - but the true jaw=dropping madness began when he launched into a blistering, effects-laden guitar solo for the song finale. I have a new found respect for Tom #%^@# Morello.

I’m more impressed that he was able to contain his guitar acrobatics for the first solo break and play the first straight solo I think that I’ve ever heard him play.
That was pretty cool. Can’t wait to see your full review!

Oh. My. God. Never thought I’d see somebody out-solo Nils at an E Street show…
