Thanks for the correction - it sounds logical. Though I doubt if the Finnish audience at the Tampere gig would have been less than ecstatic if he had played it. Even the PM (he was there with his betrothed) would have stood up and waved his arms.

He may not have played it now, but he certainly played Born in the USA in the fairly recent Live DVD from Barcelona. From what I recall, he actually seemed to enjoy playing the song, too. (Anyway, I already had to go to Tampere for a project steering board meeting and for the Sauna Open Air the same week, so this Turkulainen decided he had seen enough of Tampere for one week ;-)

I prefer the Cheech Marin version: "Borned in East L.A."

As the Dutch said while fighting the Spanish: "It is not necessary to have hope in order to persevere."
