OK, Boss. I see you ignored my plea to include Utah in your Working on a Dream Tour. Fair enough. Can't say as I blame you, really, seeing as how Salt Lake City was the only town you failed to sell out in something like three decades. I agree: we suck.
Here's the deal. Since you won't come to us, we'll come to you. We're headed to Denver for the show on Friday night and, well, I have just a small request or two...
See, it's the missus' first live Springsteen show. It's her Boss baptism, if you will. And I'd like it to be extra-special because, well, I've sort of guaranteed her that seeing The Boss live is better than anything you can find in church or in the bedroom.
So, if I might be so bold, I thought I'd write out your set list for Friday's show -- you know, just to save you the trouble. Feel free to change the order, but don't fuck with the songs, OK? And none of that acoustic Born in the USA stuff, either.
Oh, and how about you work up a cool Chuck Berry medley? I'd appreciate that.
See you on Friday night!
Your pal,
Ted
