Read his new book "Cornflakes with John Lennon." The liner notes say: "When Springsteen took to playing only old hits, Fri, 20 Nov 2009 23:41:49 GMT brad claeys http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/REOFANS/message/29067 http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/REOFANS/message/29067 You are wrong on that one, I have been to Springsteen concerts for thirty years and he has always done new and old songs every nite. I admit you know more Fri, 20 Nov 2009 23:36:39 GMT gittingsdaryl http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/REOFANS/message/29066 http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/REOFANS/message/29066 I agree that they need to change up the setlist more than they do. However, I can see why it doesn't change that often when they only play for about 75 Fri, 20 Nov 2009 18:37:26 GMT merlotcandle http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/REOFANS/message/29065 http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/REOFANS/message/29065 I'm not surprised. First of all, the CD is hard to get. Kevin admits they turned it in at the last minute just trying to make a buck from the holiday season, Fri, 20 Nov 2009 18:30:05 GMT merlotcandle http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/REOFANS/message/29064 http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/REOFANS/message/29064 Well, despite the warnings, I bought a copy. In my opinion, this CD is the WORST of both worlds. It's not really REO and it's not really Christmas. It's a bad Fri, 20 Nov 2009 17:56:25 GMT okcreofan http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/REOFANS/message/29063 http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/REOFANS/message/29063 Went to the taping of the Holiday Celebration on Ice with REO and Bruce Springfield. The special will be broadcast on Sunday 11/29/09 on NBC Fri, 20 Nov 2009 17:56:12 GMT okcreofan http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/REOFANS/message/29062 http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/REOFANS/message/29062 Boyd, I agree. Love the Christmas CD. My favorites are Bruce's Blue Christmas, Winter Wonderland, Angels We Have Heard on High and Silent Night.

My favorite right now is "God Rest Ye Merry Gentleman," "Joy to the World," "Silent Night," Fri, 20 Nov 2009 16:26:22 GMT tomchichi http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/REOFANS/message/29060 http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/REOFANS/message/29060 I still enjoy going to REO shows because I enjoy listening to the music I grew up with. Would I love to hear some different songs live? Hell yeah.

Instead of songs from the crap from the albums from the new lineup?

Don't even get me started on that album and all the crap Cronin put in the liner notes without consulting Fri, 20 Nov 2009 12:14:06 GMT pappajohn42 http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/REOFANS/message/29055 http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/REOFANS/message/29055 Of course Amato isn't dedicated. He hasn't added one creative thing to this band in decades. He's just along for the gravy train ride.
