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…)
Happy birthday, Patti Scialfa, born on this date in 1953! Watch Bruce wish his wife a happy birthday by premiering “Give the Girl a Kiss” in her honor. More highlights inside.

On this date: Steven Van Zandt makes his E Street Band debut as the Born to Run tour gets underway. Plus: he may be the best at capturing a crowd’s attention, but even Bruce can’t compete with a moon landing.

On this date in Springsteen history: Bruce launches the U.S. leg of the Reunion Tour, kicks off a ten-night Rising stand at Giants Stadium, and releases his Magic Tour Highlights EP. Video, audio (including a 1978 radio interview) and more inside.
It’s a big music video day for Bruce: in Berlin, he teams up with Wolfgang Niedecken for a new “Hungry Heart” video, in Sheffield he shoots the official “Spare Parts” video, and on the Internet, he releases the short film, “Hunter of Invisible Game.”
