Bono was injured. U2 needed a frontman for one night in Times Square. Bruce Springsteen stepped in — and tore into “Where the Streets Have No Name” as if he’d been in the band for years. New York, 2014. One hell of a substitute. 🔥 #BruceSpringsteen #U2 #LiveMusic #RockMusic

Bruce has just shared the news every Springsteen fan was hoping to hear. “Patti is now thankfully in remission.” During a heartfelt message for the Pan-Mass Challenge, Bruce thanks the doctors, nurses and researchers who never stop fighting cancer… before closing with a beautiful acoustic performance of Born to Run. ❤️🎸 #BruceSpringsteen #PattiScialfa #BornToRun #CancerResearch #PanMassChallenge #EStreetBand

When Bruce Springsteen opens with Van Halen’s Jump, and Tom Morello steps in for Eddie’s solo… there’s only one option: turn it all the way up. 🎸🔥 Dallas, 2014 — the E Street Band at full throttle. #BruceSpringsteen #TomMorello #VanHalen #LiveMusic #ClassicRock

Just two days after Prince’s death, Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band opened their Brooklyn show with “Purple Rain.” The arena turned purple, and Nils Lofgren delivered a magnificent guitar solo worthy of the moment. A beautiful farewell from one legend to another. 💜 #BruceSpringsteen #Prince #PurpleRain #NilsLofgren #EStreetBand

On this day in 2012… Bruce opened what would become the longest show of his career with Rockin’ All Over the World. 33 songs. 4 hours and 6 minutes. And this was only the beginning. 🔥 Helsinki, July 31, 2012.

A historic passing of the torch in Gothenburg. On July 28, 2012, Jake Clemons played the Jungleland saxophone solo for the first time — the song’s first performance since Clarence’s death. A beautiful, emotional moment. The Big Man’s legacy was in safe hands. #BruceSpringsteen #Springsteen #EStreetBand

Racing in the Street isn’t really a song about cars. It’s about fading dreams, a love falling apart, and those moments when you’re still searching for a reason to keep moving forward. In Sydney on February 19, 2014, Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band delivered a deeply moving version. Nearly nine suspended minutes, carried by an intensely emotional finale.

A magical moment: Bruce dances with his mom, Adele, then brings his sister Pam onstage for the finale of “Dancing in the Dark.” It’s moments like this that remind you why you love the Boss. 🎬 London — 2013 #BruceSpringsteen #DancingInTheDark #LiveMusic #Springsteen

Released on this day in 2002, The Rising was Bruce Springsteen’s powerful response to the aftermath of 9/11 — and the first studio album with the E Street Band since Born in the U.S.A. in 1984. Fifteen songs. Not a single skip.

July 4, 2012. Paris. On America’s Independence Day, Bruce Springsteen played Independence Day solo on piano. Not a song about flags or fireworks, but about leaving home, growing up, and the quiet distance between a father and a son.

June 25, 1993. Letterman leaves NBC. Bruce shows up with Glory Days and the World’s Most Dangerous Band. In just a few minutes, a TV farewell turns into a rock’n’roll late-night send-off. With a desk in the middle.

June 14, 2019. Bruce Springsteen releases Western Stars: an album like a CinemaScope sunset stretching across a desert highway, where deserted motels drift past and loneliness lingers on the horizon. An inner western, gently haunted by the elegance of Roy Orbison.

The ’78 tour is the legend, the benchmark, the one every Springsteen tour gets measured against. But for my generation, it’s the Reunion Tour. The full E Street Band back together, the huge setlists, the emotion, the feeling that something we thought was gone had suddenly come back to life.

Every chance to listen to Prove It All Night with the ’78 intro is a good one. On June 10, 1978, in Bloomington, Minnesota, Bruce Springsteen was already on the road with Darkness on the Edge of Town, just days after the album’s release.

In 1991, Nils Lofgren released Valentine, featuring Bruce Springsteen on backing vocals. Bruce also appeared in the video. A quiet E Street family moment, and a beautiful song.

We waited four decades to finally see this masterpiece. It must have felt like a Mission: Impossible worthy of Tom Cruise, but a handful of people never gave up. In 2021, Sony finally released Bruce Springsteen’s legendary No Nukes concerts. Raise your hand if you were there.

June 30, 2013. Bruce Springsteen at Hard Rock Calling, London. Right in the middle of the Wrecking Ball tour, he unleashes a Born in the U.S.A. sequence so massive that even the fish and chips stopped frying to listen: Cover Me, Darlington County, Downbound Train, I’m On Fire, No Surrender, Bobby Jean, I’m Goin’ Down, Glory Days, Dancing in the Dark, My Hometown. Suffice it to say, London took a hit… and it took several cups of tea to recover.

And how could we honor Roy Bittan on his birthday, and the full range of his talent, without listening to Racing in the Street? By request.
