Bruce Springsteen to play full albums at Philly shows

Earlier in the week, I wrote about one of Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band's last stand at Giants Stadium, where they played all of Born in the U.S.A. Bruce will continue the trend when he hits the Spectrum, for another final stand, next week. Here's the schedule:

Tue. Oct. 13 ' Born to Run
Wed., Oct. 14 ' Darkness on the Edge of Town
Mon., Oct. 19 'Born to Run
Tue., Oct. 20 ' Born in the U.S.A.

I always dig it when bands play their full albums live. It puts each song in context and you can to hear personal favorites that usually aren't included in the set list. Any fave memories of bands playing full albums in concert? Sonic Youth played all of Daydream Nation once and I was pissed I couldn't go.
