Happy birthday, Jay Weinberg, born on this date in 1990. Also on this date: Bruce plays The Stone Pony for the very first time, wins an MTV VMA, performs “State Trooper” live for the first time, and more.

Happy birthday, Bobby King! Plus: a sizzling set in a rainy Rock Creek Park, the debut of “Summertime Blues,” the emotional return of “Jungleland,” and more.
Bruce makes his first television appearance, makes his first political endorsement (earlier than you might think), and plays “Drive All Night” for the first time in 27 years–all on this date in history.
On this date: Dr. Zoom and the Sonic Boom play their final gig, Bruce takes over a dancing school ball in Germany (really), and more.
Dr. Zoom and the Sonic Boom make their debut under that name on this date in history. Plus: Max misses his first show in 35 years, Bruce and Julianne hold their wedding reception, Bruce’s first ever performance of “Satan’s Jewel Crown,” and more.
I’ve never been more surprised and impressed by an American crowd than I was at this show in Greensboro, and I’ll never pass up the chance to see Bruce play there again.
