Bruce Springsteen Band (76)


Guest stars galore in DC, a surprise outdoor jam in Sea Bright, and a Labor Day special in Philly lead off the many highlights from this date in Springsteen history.

Bruce kicks off the Rising Tour, plays the first “Don’t Look Back” in 22 years, debuts a work-in-progress “On the Prowl,” and more.

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: Soozie Tyrell joins the E Street family, and Evan James joins the Springsteen family. Plus: Bruce plays… an IPO party?

Bruce makes a surprise “guest” appearance with Joe Grushecky (if 15 of 18 songs can be considered a guest appearance), Bruce teases an injured Jake, the Devils and Dust Tour set list busts open, and more.

The power goes out in Paris, the strings come out in Rome, Jake and Clarence share the stage, and it’s Christmas in July. It’s a date for unusual events in Springsteen history!

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.

Two interviews and guest-stars galore: Rosanne Cash, John Cafferty, Wolfgang Niedecken, and Tom Morello all share the stage with Bruce on this date.

Bruce meets Patti, kicks off the Wrecking Ball tour, makes a guest appearance with Dropkick Murphys, plays the first public gig with the reunited E Street Band, and more on this VERY busy day in Bruce history.
