Basking in the Afterglow of The Bruce Springsteen/E St.Band Concert

The Bruce Springsteen and E Street Band Concert was wonderful. They Rocked The House!! The Boss and his band set "up the Joint, that surely did not disappoint". It was great, they played for 2 hours and 45 minutes without a BREAK!!! Everything from Old Favorites, "Born to Run", "Spirit in the Night", "10th Avenue Freeze Out", some new stuff, "The Rising", and a real treat, Stephen Foster's "Hard Times" and an Irish Reel to close the show. A Wonderful Time was Had By All, including the band. You can so tell that they really, really enjoy playing and interacting with a live audience. (Which totally makes sense, cause let's face it, Bruce and the E St.Band Don't need the money!) What a special evening. Thank you, Mr.Springsteen and The E Street Band. Also, Tommy Morello of Rage Against the Machine who took my breath away with his guitar solo on the "Ghost of Tom Joad" and an Irish Reel, American Land.



This "bootleg" video is dark but the sound quality if good if you would like to hear this rousing song.

Thank you for stopping by.
