Your daily dose of Springsteen originals and covers
Bruce kicks off August with a bang: from the debut of the Miami Horns, the first-ever performances of “Something in the Night,” “Two for the Road,” “Rendezvous,” and “Trouble River,” a Letterman appearance, bar gigs and more–this date in history is jam-packed! (And yet Bruce still finds time to take in a ballgame…)
On this day in Springsteen history: The Tunnel of Love Express Tour kicks off, the E Street Band plays their last concert to date, the inspiration for one of Bruce’s most controversial songs, and a whole lot more.
Watch Bruce’s surprise appearance at a 2008 holiday show. Plus: Bruce heads west and gets his California driver’s license. These and more highlights inside.
