Bruce Springsteen - a most difficult birthday! [Music]

This week "The Boss" turns 62 - so why am I struggling with it!

Bruce Springsteen’s birthday is this week (September 23rd). He’ll be 62, a boomer.  In fact, I would argue that “The Boss” is now the “Boomer in The USA.” (picture that famous blue jean butt shot, only now he’s wearing relaxed fit jeans).   Bruce Springsteen is OLD.  Before you judge me, hear me out about this difficult birthday. 

I love Bruce Springsteen just as much as you, probably more.  I lined the walls of my hallway with his album covers, in chronological order. Judge me.

Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band triumph at Nashville's Sommet Center in what might have been one of their final shows

Playing of entire 'Born to Run' album highlight of closest show to Louisville on Working on a Dream tour
It's not clear how many audience members realized that Wednesday night at Nashville's Sommet Center probably was their last Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band concert. After almost two straight years of touring, Springsteen and E Street are going on hiatus after tonight's show in Buffalo. With most of the band members in their 60s, saxophonist Clarence "Big Man" Clemons's health issues and recent remarks from band members, the odds are good that Nashville saw one of rock's greatest live acts' third-to-last show.
