"Just this one time! Too long to do it again!" And with that, the first — and probably only — full album performance of Bruce Springsteen's 1980 double-album The River began at New York City's Madison Square Garden. In an arena most often populated by athletes half his age, this minister of rock and roll — [...]
Photograph by Mark Seliger Over two nights at New York’s Madison Square Garden last month, rock history was made again and again: Bono, Mick Jagger, Bruce Springsteen and more legends united on one stage to celebrate the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame’s 25th anniversary with a pair of concerts featuring some of the biggest talents [...]
The Wild, The Innocent & The E Street Shuffle is a love song to characters and the worlds that flow around them. The songs are lyrically dense (in a good way), the music is compositionally sweet and Bruce knew his fans wanted another go-around with it, so he played it in full this weekend. If you click HERE you just might be able to be pretend you were there, in the crowd at Madison Square Garden....
Benjamin told me tonight his class is working on their music for their annual Holiday Show on December 10th. Every day he has a half hour of Music and he said one of the songs they are working on is Santa Claus is Coming To Town. Of course we broke out the iPod and listened to Bruce Springsteen's version, then thanks to Google I found this from the Count Basie Theater in Red Bank NJ on December 22,2008....
Last Wednesday, I had the honor to attend the third annual Stand Up For Heroes gala in New York. A fundraiser for the Bob Woodruff Foundation/ReMIND.org, it brings together a variety of people to raise money for our wounded. Not only that, but the first three rows at The Town Hall theatre (where the phrase "not a bad seat in the house" was coined) were given over to some of those wounded...
Filed under: News , New Music , Exclusive Bruce Springsteen isn't the only New Jersey rocker with a social conscience. J on Bon Jovi , who like Springsteen raised money for President Barack Obama and has said in interviews he is friends with the Commander in Chief, tells Spinner the band's new album, 'The Circle,' was shaped by politics. "Lyrically, I think it touches on who and what we are as...

Bright Star, the new movie about Keats, has ruined him for me. It's not the first time and it certainly won't be the last On Sunday I did the bad thing again. I bought a ticket to Bright Star, the biopic about John Keats. I have always liked Keats, despite the line, "Thou wast not born for death, immortal Bird!" But I had forgotten what I call the Impromptu Law – after the George Sand...
Sorry. Given today’s news from Elmbrook, with a little help from the upcoming tour – this is the song in my head: So, what do you guys think about the new practice of Old Rockers playing a full album in concert? Bruce Springsteen will play Born to Run Sunday night at the Bradley Center. (Bruce can stuff [...]

Standing in a chilly Downing Street waiting to address the nation on "Birogate" during the Martin Stanford show, I couldn't believe what I was hearing in my earpiece. It sounded like a rock concert. There was cheering, screaming, applause, and the crowd going wild. But they weren't cheering Bruce Springsteen or some world superstar of the music business. It was Gordon Brown. No, honestly....
My oh my what one win can do for my confidence in the Buckeyes. Penn State is not an especially good team this year (they've lost by double digits to the two good teams they've played this year) but winning in front of a hostile crowd on the road, and doing so in a game in which the Buckeyes took care of the football, controlled field position and never allowed Penn State to actually get in the end...
Although Bernie Williams first captivated national attention as an all-star for the New York Yankees, his love for music runs as deep as his love for baseball. He has brought his mix of Latin and jazz sounds to fans lately, who are blown away by his musical talent. His 2009 Release “Morning Forward” featuring guest artists John Secada, Mike Stern and Bruce Springsteen was nominated for...
