Tag: Drift Away
On this date: Bruce plays his first-ever stadium concert in his home state, brings back “Crush on You” and “Drift Away” after 28 years, makes an unintentionally comical Asbury Park surprise appearance and more.
On this date: not one but two TV appearances–one in New York and one in Spain. Plus: Bruce joins Billy Joel on stage for the fist time, the soundtrack release of Springsteen on Broadway, and more.
It’s one of rock’s most meta-powerful songs, and in 1984 Bruce and Steve transformed it into a tribute to their brotherhood. Hear that moment and watch more great performances of “Drift Away” inside.
